Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Across the eleventh to the thirteenth centuries, the patriarchs of the Coptic Church faced urgent questions concerning worship, clerical responsibility, baptism, marriage, inheritance, church property, discipline, and communal life. Their canons preserve the Church's effort to unite inherited faith with the practical demands of medieval Egypt.

Arranged chronologically, the collection ranges from concise liturgical and pastoral regulations to laws of inheritance and detailed documents governing patriarchal, episcopal, and clerical life within the Christian community. The texts reveal how medieval Coptic leaders addressed the reverent celebration of the sacraments, the conduct and accountability of clergy, Christian marriage and succession, charitable endowments, ecclesiastical courts, and the preservation of order during periods of political and institutional pressure.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu.

This new English translation presents the primary text in its reconstructed order: Lower Egypt; Sinai, the Levant, Asia and Europe; then al-Basatin, al-Fus?a?, Mi?r and the regions that follow. It draws upon the surviving Arabic manuscript tradition together with Bishop Samuel al-Suryani's published Arabic volumes.
