The Sentences of the Syriac Menander appears in two Syriac
manuscripts in the British Library, a full version in one codex,
and a far shorter version, only a small fraction thereof, in
another. This book presents a commentary on the text in its
complete version focusing on parallels from both Jewish tradition
and the Greco-Roman world, showing that the text is not, as it
claims, the work of the Greek author Menander, but rather a work of
Jewish Wisdom Literature composed in Syriac, possibly in the
ancient city of Edessa itself, and preserved within Christian
monastic circles.
