  • Proposal to Encode Additional Cyrillic Characters Used in Early Church Slavonic Printed Books
    Proposal to Encode Additional Cyrillic Characters used in Early Church Slavonic Printed Books Aleksandr Andreev* Yuri Shardt Nikita Simmons PONOMAR PROJECT 1 Introduction Church Slavonic (or Church Slavic, ISO 639-2 code cu) is a highly codified, living, literary lan- guage used by the Slavs. Presently, various recensions of Church Slavonic are used by Slavic Or- thodox Churches, such as the Russian Orthodox Church, and by Slavic Byzantine-Rite Catholic Churches as primary or secondary liturgical languages. Historically, the language was used not only for liturgical texts and religious literature but also for secular academic literature, such as grammars, lexicons, and even astronomical treatises, prior to the codification of literary recen- sions of vernacular Slavic languages. Church Slavonic has been wrien in two scripts – Cyrillic and the earlier Glagolitic. is proposal focuses on Church Slavonic texts printed in the Cyrillic alphabet only. In this document, the authors identify nine Cyrillic characters used in early Church Slavonic printed books published between 1500 and 1700. e characters can be classified as being of three types: characters used in historically important literary texts (such as the Bible printed by Fran- cysk Skaryna, the Ostrog Bible printed by Ivan Fedorov, or the Trebnik compiled by Metropolitan Peter Mogila). ese texts are of immense value to academics studying the history of Slavic lan- guages, the Cyrillic printed tradition, and the Byzantine Rite. e second class constitutes char- acters that are in use in liturgical texts published today by the Russian Old Ritualist community. Old Ritualists rejected the linguistic and liturgical reforms carried out in Russia under Patriarch Nikon and his successors (1653-1700) and continue to use liturgical books that imitate the ear- lier printed tradition.

  • Plants of the Bible, Ronald Press, New York
    Reading 10-1 1 READING 10-1 H.N. Moldenke and A.L. Moldenke. 1952. Plants of the Bible, Ronald Press, New York. Historical Sketch Popular interest in the botany of the Bible dates from very early times. Plants and plant products are referred to in so many hundreds of verses of both the old and new testaments, as well as in the books of the Apocrypha, that it is not at all surprising to fi nd early theologians, divines, and scholars exceedingly interested in them. Theological literature, from its very beginnings, is fi lled with references to and com- ments upon the plants of the Bible and of Biblical lands. There was, of course, a long period of time when no one dared to challenge any of the translations or interpretations of Biblical passages by the leaders of the church then in authority. The time came, however, when questions were asked and various sects or denominations appeared-at fi rst persecuted and suppressed as “heretics”. Translations were questioned and even the canonicity of some of the chapters and of entire books was challenged. There naturally followed heated and often bitter discussions and arguments among scholars and theologians concerning the transla- tion and interpretation of certain Hebrew or Greek words or phrases in the various passages referring to, or thought to refer to, plants or plant products. No attempt has been made by us to review the huge theological literature on this subject, or to list it in our bibliography, primarily because these writers were not botanically trained and their arguments, while in many cases interesting to read, are largely metaphysical, philosophical, moralistic, or philological in nature.

  • The Septuagint and the Masoretic Text in the Orthodox Church(Es)* Alexandru Mihăilă**
    The Septuagint and the Masoretic Text in the Orthodox Church(es)* Alexandru Mihăilă** In this article, I intend to survey the reception of versions of the Old Testament in the Orthodox churches, focusing on the Greek, Russian and Romanian Church, respectively. While Western biblical scholars gave precedence to the Hebrew text over the Septuagint, in the Orthodox world one can see a tension in the relationship between the two textual witnesses and sometimes, even recently, there are voices which tend to give the Septuagint total authority in the Church. Orthodox scholars in the field of Old Testament studies usually resort to the Hebrew text, but especially scholars from outside this field tend to promote the Septuagint as the Old Testament of the Orthodox Church. I shall use the argument of authority, which is improper for scientific argumentation, but it suits my research, as I try to understand the confessional positions held within Eastern Orthodoxy. Consequently, if a certain saint, acknowledged as such by a national Orthodox Church or by the entire Eastern Orthodox communion, embraces a particular view on this subject, this bears significantly on the issue. Keywords: Orthodox Church, Bible, Septuagint, Masoretic Text, Synodal Bible. Recent positions of Romanian theologians I begin with an overview of the Romanian Orthodox Church, which I know better. Immediately before and especially in the aftermath of the December Revolution, the future archbishop Bartolomeu Anania worked on an impor- tant biblical project. The result, published in 2001, was a new translation of the Bible, even if Archbishop Anania called it a “revised edition according to the Septuagint”.

  • Two East Slavonic Primers: Lvov, 1574 and Moscow, 1637
    TWO EAST SLAVONIC PRIMERS: LVOV, 1574 AND MOSCOW, 1637 CHRISTINE THOMAS CULTURAL life in Russia in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries diflFered from cultural life in Western Europe in two important respects. Works of literature and scholarship were not written in the spoken vernacular (Russian), but in Church Slavonic, and the predominant medium for conveying thought was not the printed book, but the manuscript. Printing, which began late—the first explicitly dated Moscow imprint being that of Ivan Fedorov's Apostol (Acts and Epistles) of 1564—was dominated by Church and State and was reserved in the main for the production of generally large-format liturgical works for use in Orthodox Church services. The first printed and dated East Slavonic primer did not appear until 1574. It was a primer for children learning to read not Ukrainian or Russian, but Church Slavonic, and it was printed not within the State of Muscovy, but in Lvov, then in Poland (but now in the Ukrainian SSR). It is the recent acquisition by the British Library of a copy of this significant and rare work (hitherto known only from a copy at Harvard) that has caused this article to be written (fig. i). During the period 1574 to 1652 in the territory within the frontiers of the present-day Soviet Union some twenty editions of Church Slavonic primers are known to have been printed. Only two came from the Moscow Printing House (printed in 1634 and 1637), the others were printed outside Russia, either in Belorussia or the Ukraine, both then part of Poland.

  • Request for Clarification in the Encoding Model for Some Cyrillic
    Request for Clarification in the Encoding Model for Some Cyrillic Combining Characters Aleksandr Andreev* Yuri Shardt Nikita Simmons Ponomar Project Slavonic Computing Initiative 1 Introduction Church Slavic (also known as Church Slavonic or Old Slavonic) is a historical literary lan- guage of the Slavs. Presently it is used as a liturgical language by the Russian Orthodox Church, various other local Orthodox Churches, and Byzantine-rite Catholic and Old Ritu- alist communities. As considered in this document, Church Slavic is wrien in the Cyrillic script. is document requests the UTC to clarify the encoding model for Cyrillic as used in typeseing Church Slavic in order to provide for consistency in the encoding of combining Cyrillic leers. 2 Problem Description Church Slavic uses combining (superscript) Cyrillic leers to indicate that a word has been abbreviated in writing, either as a spelling convention (for example, in nomina sacra) or as a space-saving device. Such combining leers have already been encoded in the Unicode standard in the Cyrillic Extended-A and Cyrillic Extended-B blocks. Church Slavic also uses composite combining leers, which consist of either a digraph of two combining leers or a ligature made of two components, both occurring over one base character (in manuscripts, the combining characters may be wrien quite large and may appear to occur over several characters, but this is a stylistic embellishment). e Unicode standard has already encoded one such composite combining leer, U+2DF5 COMBINING CYRILLIC LETTER ES-TE (◌ⷵ ). An example of this character is presented in the first row of Table 1. In addition to this character, our research has identified a number of other such composite characters that are used.

  • Seven Archangels
    Seven Archangels Marmoniel (“who hold the clouds in your hands”).[2] 1 Archangels in current church traditions The Catholic Church recognizes three archangels, the three mentioned in its canon of Scripture: Gabriel and Michael, mentioned in the New Testament, and Raphael, mentioned in the book of Tobit, where he is described as “one of the seven angels who stand ready and enter before the glory of the Lord”,[3] a phrase recalled in Revelation 8:2-6. Some strands of the Eastern Orthodox Church, exem- plified in the Orthodox Slavonic Bible (Ostrog Bible, Elizabeth Bible, and later consequently Russian Synodal Bible), recognize as authoritative also 2 Esdras, which mentions Uriel. Yet the Eastern Orthodox Church ac- cepts only Michael, Gabriel, Raphael and Uriel. As well as Uriel, the Book of Enoch, not regarded “Synaxis of the Archangel Michael” ("Собор Архистратига as canonical by any of these Christian churches, men- Михаила").

It becomes more plausible that the Slavonic translation has been produced in the earliest period of Slavic writing directly from Syriac rather than from Hebrew, as it was proposed earlier. Keywords Songs of Songs – Slavonic translations from Syriac – Slavonic Bible – Second Temple Jewish exegesis 1 Introduction Among the Slavonic versions of the Song of Songs, there are two which are now considered as being directly translated from the Hebrew. The later, whose Sitz im Leben is known, is dependent on the earlier. The earlier one remains rather enigmatic and, therefore, is the object of the present study. Both translations are preserved in the unique manuscripts: the earlier one in the so-called Museum manuscript (= Mus; Russian State Library, coll. 178, Nr 8222; first published by Anatoly Alekseev in 1981)1 and the later one in the Vil- 1 А.А.
