Further Notes on the Word Ṣibgha in Qurʾān 2: 138

520 |a Recent scholarship on the interpretation of ṣibghat Allāh (lit., ‘the dye of God’) in Qurʾān 2:138 has trended in two directions. A moderate trend views the word ṣibgha as merely a caique of the Syriac word for baptism, maṣbūʿītā. Another recent, more radical approach regards ṣibgha as a product of the corrupting vicissitudes of the Qurʾān's textual transmission and, therefore, has proposed alternative, text-critical renderings of the Quranic ductus itself. This article offers a third — hopefully more compelling — reading, wherein the phrase ‘the dye of God’ is read in light of similar baptismal metaphors scattered throughout the Christian literature of Near Eastern Late Antiquity.
