The origins and development of the Church in Egypt remain one of
the vexed problems of early Christian history. In his Schweich
Lectures, delivered in 1977, Dr C. H. Roberts examines the evidence
of the Christian papyri discovered in Egypt to see what light they
cast on the problems and how far they support statements in our
ancient authorities or the theories of modern scholars. Among
matters discussed are the influence of Judaism and whether
Gnosticism was really as powerful in the first three centuries in
Egypt as is sometimes thought; particular attention is paid to the
historical significance in these early manuscripts of the nomina
sacra, the abbreviations of the divine names.
