Editio Princeps of the
Odes of SolomonUntil 1909, our knowledge about the existence of the ᾠδαὶ Σολομῶντος “Odes of Solomon” was based on two Greek lists of canonical works (13.2.2.1), a Latin quotation by Lactantius (13.2.2.2), and five Coptic quotations in the Gnostic tractate
Pistis Sophia (13.2.2.3). This unsatisfying situation changed dramatically in 1909 with the publication of
The Odes and Psalms of Solomon: Now First Published from the Syriac Version by Harris (1852–1941), the discoverer of the paper…

P. Bodmer XI as Part of a Codex in the Bibliotheca BodmerianaThe original language of the
Odes of Solomon was most probably Greek (but see 13.2.1). Before the discovery and publication of
P. Bodmer XI in 1959 (13.2.2.1.2), scholars were puzzled about the existence and size of a collection called ᾠδαὶ Σολομῶντος “Odes of Solomon” in two lists of canonical works (13.2.1.2); in addition to the evidence of these lists, we knew only of five enigmatic Coptic quotati…

Odes of Solomon, only three lines have survived in Latin quoted in the works of Lactantius. Lucius Caelius Firmianus qui est Lactantius, the “Christian Cicero,” lived from ca. 250 to ca. 325 C.E.; he wrote the seven books of
Divinae institutiones “Divine Institutes” (

Epitome (

Odes of Solomon and the BibleThe collection of forty-two pseudonymous poems called
Odes of Solomon has never been a part of the Hebrew Bible (MT; I.1.2.2), the Septuagint (LXX; I.1.3.1.1), or the Syriac Peshitta (S; I.1.3.4). One can find these poems, which have also been called “hymns” or “psalms” by modern researchers, in collections such as
The Apocryphal Old Testament1 or
Neutestamentliche Apokryphen.2 They have found their way into the French collection
Écrits apocryphes chrétiens3 and the German collection

Solomon

[German Version]
I. Bible
1. Literary analysis. The primary source for Solomon (Heb. ְׁשׁלמה/
šĕlōmōh) is 1 Kgs 1–12. It has a chiastic structure centered on the account of the design, construction, and dedication of the Jerusalem temple (II, 4; 1 Kgs 5–8); it is flanked by descriptions of Solomon’s illustrious wisdom and reign (1 Kgs 3f. and 9f.), with narratives of his rise and decline constituting the outward framework (1 Kgs 1f. and 11f.). This overall structure is…

Eulogy
(284 words)
[German Version] The eulogy (from Gk εὐλογíα/
eulogía, “well speaking, praise”) did not develop as a distinct genre either in classical antiquity or in Christianity. Besides the general sense of “high praise,” in English “eulogy” has become a technical term for laudatory praise of someone who has died. In French the plural (
eulogies) has preserved an ancient Christian sense, denoting leftover pieces of blessed bread (
pain bénit). In the Early Church, the whole εὐλογ- word group (except in passages like Rom 16:18, where it means “flattery”) …
