| Summary: | The Dialogue of the Savior is preserved in a single copy, the last of five tractates in Nag Hammadi Codex III. The manuscript was discovered, together with the rest of the Nag Hammadi Codices, by Upper Egyptian farmers late in 1945. It soon became the property of Raghib Andarawus, a resident of Dishna. The codex first came to scholarly attention in the summer of 1946, when Raghib showed it to Georgy Sobhy in Cairo. Sobhy informed the Egyptian Department of Antiquities of the existence of the codex, and in October 1946 it was purchased from Raghib for the Coptic Museum.1 Given the inventory number 4851, the acquisition was registered as a 'papyrus manuscript ... with its cover. Seventy folios, most of them damaged and incomplete, some of them very small fragments.' |
