Author of an Apology for Christianity originally written in Greek and addressed to an unnamed emperor ( CPG 1062).
《基督教护教文》(Apology for Christianity) 的作者，该作品最初以希腊语写成，并呈献给一位未具名的皇帝 (CPG 1062)。
Author of an Apology for Christianity originally written in Greek and addressed to an unnamed emperor (* CPG * 1062). The complete text is preserved only in Syriac translation, ed. with ET, J. R. Harris (1891), since the original Greek is lost apart from two 4th-cent. papyrus fragments and a much later adaptation, when the work was incorporated into the Life of Barlaam and Josaphat (a tale of Buddhist origin), ascribed to John of Damascus (ed. R. Volk, PTS 60; 2006). The unique ms. containing the Syriac text, ms. Sinai Syr. 16, should probably be dated to the 7th cent.
一位《基督教护教论》(Apology for Christianity) 的作者，该作品原以希腊语 (Greek) 写成，献给一位佚名皇帝 (* CPG * 1062)。完整文本仅存于叙利亚语 (Syriac) 译本中，由 J. R. 哈里斯 (J. R. Harris) 编辑 (ed.) 并附英译 (ET) (1891)，因为原希腊语 (Greek) 本已佚，除两份 4 世纪 (4th-cent.) 纸草残片及一个较晚的改编本外无存，在该改编本中，此作品被纳入《巴拉姆与约萨法特传》(Life of Barlaam and Josaphat)（一个源于佛教 (Buddhist) 的故事），归于大马士革的约翰 (John of Damascus) 名下 (ed. R. Volk, PTS 60; 2006)。包含该叙利亚语 (Syriac) 文本的唯一抄本 (ms.)，即西奈叙利亚语 16 号抄本 (ms. Sinai Syr. 16)，可能应断代为 7 世纪 (7th cent.)。
