The Catechism of Jerusalem in the Christian Palestinian Aramaic Version

This is the first text edition of the catechism of Cyril of Jerusalem in the Christian Palestinian Aramaic version (ca 5th-7th centuries AD). About a third of the volume comprises previously unpublished text material. The real importance of this Aramaic version is that it is based on a translation from an earlier Greek version now lost. For comparison, the Aramaic part has been juxtaposed with the Greek text of the critical edition of 1848. A glossary of the Aramaic words has been included.
