Abstract

This article presents a previously unknown Jewish and Aramaic religious literary composition dating between the early second and early fourth centuries CE. The document focuses on a righteous man within the context of angels, demons, and spirits. The manuscript, which is housed in the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres, Cabinet du Corpus Inscriptionum Semiticarum, has a clear acquisition history and comes from Egypt. The text is edited, translated, and provided with a philological commentary. Discussion of the text’s content is briefly brought into dialogue with the Dead Sea Scrolls and early Jewish texts.
