The Syro-Hexapla is a valuable witness to the text of Origen’s Hexapla. This article describes the marginal material in the Syro-Hexapla of Job under the following headings: (1) hexaplaric notes, (2) longer scholia (from patristic works), (3) textual variants and other versions, (4) Greek words, and (5) exegetical notes / glosses. By examining all of the materials within the manuscript more insight into its history and provenance was made possible. According to the evidence, Syro-Hexapla Job probably originated in or around Alexandria and was probably translated from the Tetrapla or a text that preserved four Greek versions of Job along with other marginal material.

Ceulemans, ‘The ὁμοίως Notes’, p. 10. For an introduction to the Lucianic recension, see J.M. Dines, The Septuagint (London: T & T Clark, 2004) pp. 103–106.
Ceulemans, ‘Review’, p. 475. He concludes his article saying, “Rappelons-nous également que les marges de la Syh au moins ont parfois utilisé les chaînes exégétiques comme source”. However, in his study of Song of Songs, Ceulemans concluded that no dependence of Syhmg on a Greek catena could be identified; cf. Ceulemans, ‘The ὁμοίως Notes’, p. 35.
Ziegler, Iob, pp. 64–68 (for Syh as member of the O group); pp. 71–75 (for grammatical-stylistic variants); pp. 77–86, 142–143 (for analysis of hexaplaric signs); pp. 112–114 (for Lucianic readings in the margin and with lemnisk in Syh); p. 121 (L Syh).
Dean, Epiphanius’ Treatise, pp. 3–4. For the critical edition in Greek, cf. E.D. Moutsoulas, ‘Τὸ ‘Περὶ μέτρων καὶ σταθμῶν’ ἔργον Ἐπιφανίου τοῦ Σαλαμῖνος’, Θεολογία 44 (1973), pp. 157–198. The Greek text contains only sections 1–24, and therefore, does not contain the text of this scholion.
Dean, Epiphanius’ Treatise, p. 3. For the Syriac text of Dean, see p. 118, column 77c, lines 16–27.
Wutz, Onomastica, p. 265 (cf. the text on p. 673); Origen, Selecta in Genesim (PG, 12:121A).
Field, Origenis, p. 8. Ziegler also listed this note, commenting that besides the catenae, it only appears in Syhmg. Ziegler, Beiträge, p. 105.
