Abstract:
This article examines the way Saadiah's Tafsīr became a foundational text of the Coptic Church, whose study and preservation had to be cultivated vigilantly, which text-critical functions it fulfilled as a point of comparison to other Arabic versions of the Pentateuch, and which learned textual practices this kind of scholarship entailed. In a larger context, we ask whether there is sufficient evidence to speak of medieval Coptic Hebraism, in which the Tafsīr and the scholarly, ‘text-critical' treatment of it, acquainted Coptic intellectuals with the otherwise inaccessible Hebrew Urtext of their own biblical text in Coptic.
