Abstract:

This study traces the textual history of the Old Latin, or Vetus Latina, version of the Book of Daniel and its additions (Sus-Dn-Bel), from the turn of the third century in North Africa to AD 360. The work focuses on the patristic evidence, dedicating a chapter to each of the following: Tertullian, the Adversus Iudaeos attributed to him, Cyprian of Carthage, minor witnesses to Dn, and Lucifer of Cagliari in Sardinia, Italy. The fragmentary manuscript evidence and other Fathers’ citations are treated in relation to the Fathers just listed. Each chapter presents the results of text-critical analysis, which situate the Old Latin texts under consideration within the broader context of other witnesses to Old Latin and Greek scriptures. This approach allows one to recognize, for example, the increasing prominence of the Theodotionic Greek text of Sus-Dn-Bel over the Septuagintal one as the Vorlage for Latin biblical texts. Linguistic analyses inform and complement the text-critical ones. Within the entire span of Latin citations from Tertullian to Lucifer, one encounters remarkable linguistic characteristics, some morphological, many lexical, and still others syntactical.
