Abstract

The Codex Sinaiticus, a 4th century biblical manuscript, offers an interesting point of view on the textual transmission of the Shepherd of Hermas, which is extremely complicate because of the fragmentary status of all its Greek sources and of the presence of several translations in different languages (Latin, Ethiopic, Coptic, Georgian and Middle Persian). New studies on some of the most significant sources like the new leaves Codex Sinaiticus (2010) and the Latin translation Vulgata (2014) enable a new reconstruction of Hermas’ textual transmission. The present article will evidence the key role of the Sinaiticus as point of contact between different textual versions of the Shepherd, which have had their autonomous life, and will offer a new reconstruction of Hermas’ textual transmission.

Paolo Cecconi on Hermas in the PBodmer 38 paper

"and to a reconsideration of the value of other sources like the Codex Sinaiticus, whose text was followed by the majority of the editions of the Shepherd."

40 Campbell Bonner, A papyrus codex of the Shepherd of Hermas (Similitudes 2-9) with a fragment of the mandates (Ann Arbor, 1934), 8-11.

A = Codex Athous Grigoriou 96: a 14th century manuscript found by Minas Minoides in the Library of the S. Gregor’s Monastery on Mount Athos.31 The original manuscript contained the Shepherd and other texts; today only 9 leaves with Hermas’ text up to Similitudines 9,30,3 survive. In 1855 Constantine Simonides stole three of those leaves, which were stored in the

31 Kirsopp Lake, Facsimiles of the Athos Fragments of the Shepherd of Hermas (Oxford, 1907), 3. For more bibliographical information about the date of this manuscript, see Mondrain, “L’ancien Empereur” (see note 12), 288-295; Mondrain, “La constitution” (see note 12), 23; Harlfinger,
“Autographa” (see note 12), 49.

S = Codex Sinaiticus: a biblical manuscript written in the 4th century; it contains the Shepherd of Hermas (Visiones 1,1,1 -Mandata 4,3,5 + Similitudines 6,5,5-8,2,5 and Similitudines 9,14,4-18,5). In 1859, von Tischendorf found this codex in the Library of Saint Catherine’s Monastery on Mount Sinai;41 in 1975 the monks found twenty new leaves;42 two of these leaves contain some paragraphs of the Similitudines of Hermas.43 A very unprofessional scribe wrote the text of the Shepherd, which therefore needed to be emendated initially by the other scribes (S') and later by different correctors (Sa) between the 5th and the 7th centuries.44

42 Carlini and Bandini, “II Pastore di Erma” (see note 2), 91-92.

43 They were published with the whole Codex in 2009 and specifically studied in 2010. Respectively: Peter Toth et al., “The contents of the current release” ( http://www.codexsinaiticus.org/en/project/webcontents.aspx [URL consulted July 3rd 2018]); Cecconi, “II Pastore di Erma” (see
note 1), 118-132.

44 See for the first analysis of the Sinaiticus Milne and Skeat, Scribes and correctors (see note 1), 54-55; Dan Batovici has focused his attention on the correctors of Hermas: see Dan Batovici, “Textual Revisions of the Shepherd of Hermas in Codex Sinaiticus,” ZAC 18 (2014): (443-470) 447-462.
