A "Divining Gospel" is an edition of the Gospel of John designed for use in fortune-telling. These special editions were widespread in Late Antiquity but became suspect, surviving mostly in fragments. Here for the first time is published the text and translation of the divination apparatus from a unique early Syriac Gospel manuscript. This Syriac version enables us to evaluate the nature of this enigmatic material, clarifying its function as both divinatory and interpretive. The present study discusses the controversial place of divination in Christianity and the use of a biblical codes in that practice. An analysis of the Divining Gospel also enables us to capture a portrait of the book's practitioners and the distinctive techniques of biblical interpretation they employed to bring the Gospel's messages to bear on the daily concerns of their clients. This study underscores the significance of the materiality of books for historic Christian practice and opens a window onto a phenomenon that was once common but is presently little understood. It helps us appreciate the diverse and unconventional uses of scripture in popular religious practice. --

St. John Chrysostom was one of the most popular and influential Greek Fathers in Syrian churches. His works began to be translated into Syriac in the fifth century, after which they significantly impacted the shape of Syriac exegetical, homiletical, dogmatic, and spiritual writing. These volumes make available for the first time an edition of the Syriac text and English translation of St. John Chrysostom’s Exegetical Homilies on the Gospel of John, typically known in Syriac as Chrysostom’s Commentary on John, Homilies (Mêmrê) 1–43. The text is edited on the basis of the extant main manuscripts, from the 6th–8th centuries, in addition to excerpts preserved in various collections. Introductions to the two volumes explore the Syriac manuscript tradition, the origin and technique of the translation, its value as a witness to the Greek text, the nature of its many biblical citations, and the impact of the version on the Syriac tradition. The volumes include an orthographical index and an index of biblical citations.
