The manuscript includes a full commentary, critical apparatus, and English translation, making it a valuable resource for Old Testament scholars. The Introduction provides information about the text and its late Byzantine context. The author of the commentary is likely Nikephorus Gregoras, and the study of Gregoras' predecessors and contemporaries sheds light on how Christian and Greek thought were received and interpreted in the East.

This comprehensive edition includes a full commentary from Codex 199, along with critical apparatus and an English translation. The Introduction provides valuable context for the text, discussing its late Byzantine context. The manuscript presents both the Biblical text (quoted lemma after lemma) and the commentary in full, making it an invaluable resource for Old Testament scholars. Notably, Origen's name is listed as the author, but Panayiotis Tzamalikos argues that Nikephorus Gregoras is the most likely author. A study of Gregoras' predecessors, architects of the Palaelogean Enlightenment such as George Acropolites, Theodore Metochites, and George Pachymeres, as well as his contemporary John Kyparissiotes, sheds light on how Christian and Greek thought were received and interpreted in the East. This book constitutes a significant contribution to the field of Greek and Byzantine philosophical exegesis and will be of great value to postgraduate courses on patristics, Biblical exegesis, and Byzantine and Greek philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1028g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 225 x 150 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781433194696\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: New ed\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Panayiotis Tzamalikos","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44287120769274,"sku":"9781433194696","price":40.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_7cafa5d7-1d34-4d8b-bc74-1a5e70159226.jpg?v=1687193957","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-wisdom-of-solomon-and-the-byzantine-reception-of-origen-9781433194696","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
