There are numerous differences between various translations of this deuterocanonical text. In addition, the Armenian translation, being a textual witness to not one but multiple parent texts, has its own complications.This research provides a sustained theological reading of the Armenian text of Sirach on the basis of Yakob Nalean?s commentary written in the 18th century. At the same time it places a great emphasis on the textual evaluation of the various versions of Sirach in Armenian. In this respect an attempt has been made to display the unique features of the Armenian Sirach within the wider scope of the scholarship of this biblical text. Through a comprehensive linguistic and theological analysis of some major parts of Sirach in Armenian, this study assesses the extent to which this book was in use amongst Armenians throughout the centuries. In particular, the numerous references to Sirach in both Armenian and non-Armenian patristic literature are examined, with the aim of dating the first translations into Armenian and tracing the development of the text in the Armenian medieval schools. 410 0$aDeuterocanonical and cognate literature studies ;$vVolume 33. 606 $aRELIGION / Biblical Criticism & Interpretation / Old Testament$2bisacsh 610 $aApocrypha. 610 $aArmenian Bible. 610 $aSirach. 615 7$aRELIGION / Biblical Criticism & Interpretation / Old Testament. 676 $a229/.4049 686 $aBC 4340$qSEPA$2rvk 700 $aHambardzumyan$b Garegin$f1986-$01569603 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798053203321 996 $aThe Book of Sirach in the Armenian Biblical tradition$93842617 997 $aUNINA
