This work is the most complete edition of the remains of the lost
five-volume work, Exposition of Dominical Oracles, by Papias of
Hierapolis, a second-century Christian commentator. In all, some
ninety-eight separate mentions of Papias and his work are
documented, from the second century to the age of printing in the
fifteenth century, both in their original language and in English
translation. This body of evidence is scattered over fourteen
centuries across fifty-seven different authors writing in five
different languages (Greek, Latin, Syriac, Arabic, and Armenian).
This edition adopts the distinction between his fragments proper,
for what we know of his work, and the testimonia, for what we know
of his reception. In addition to these, Stephen C. Carlson provides
a list of potential citations of Papias, potential uses of Papias,
and fragments falsely attributed to Papias. The volume features an
extensive introduction treating the most important instances of
reception of Papias and his work.
