Summary: | The student of IV Ezra is in the happy position of having a variety of versions at his disposal. The book exists in Latin, Syriac, Ethiopic, a number of complete and some fragmentary Arabic versions, Armenian, Georgian and even a fragmentary Coptic text.

A critical review of the most recent theories has become necessary and in particular of observations made about the Armenian version. |
