Notes
Reproduction of the original from The British Library. This Arabic version of the New Testament, although copied from a different manuscript, is the same as that of the New Testament published in Arabic and Syriac at Rome in 1703. The same version is exhibited in the edition of the Gospels published at Rome in 1590-91, in that published at Leipsic in 1864, and also in the Gospels of the Polyglot Bibles of Paris and London, but in each case again from a different manuscript. Also issued in print. Electronic reproduction.
