Bibliography of the Arabic Bible: A Classified and Annotated History of Scholarship
Bibliography of the Arabic Bible: A Classified and Annotated History of Scholarship
In this research tool, we seek to provide a comprehensive and fully
annotated bibliography of text editions and research in the field of
Arabic Bible.
Historical translations of the Bible into Arabic
comprise countless manuscripts and fragments from the medieval period
found in
monasteries throughout the Middle East and libraries
across the globe, as well as early and recent prints produced in Europe
and in
Arabic-speaking lands. These translations were made by
Jews, Christians, and Samaritans, and were also used by Muslims in their
discussions with members of the other Abrahamic
religions. Arabic versions of the Bible were also translated from
biblical materials in
many different source languages, including Hebrew,
Aramaic (Jewish Aramaic and Syriac), Latin, Greek, Coptic. This Bibliography of the
Arabic Bible aims to aims to capture the history of research to date and to encompass the entire breadth of these translations,
in keeping with the focus of the original research
project, Biblia Arabica: The Bible in Arabic among Jews, Christians and Muslims.
