| Summary: | Clement of Alexandria, Origen and Didymus testify to the existence of a Jewish-Christian group living in Egypt during the IInd century: the Hebrews. They inform us about fragments of the Gospel of this group, the Gospel of the Hebrews. First written in Hebrew or Aramaic, then translated into Greek, this Gospel was accepted, especially when used to solve exegetical difficulties. The Hebrews were therefore part of the Main Church. Origen tells us about the Bible of these Hebrews, in a famous passage taken wrongly as a description of the Jewish Canon of the Bible. Origen gives again precious information on these Hebrews who knew well the Jewish traditions of interpretation and who practiced allegory and typology in their exegesis. Should they be identified with other Hebrews met by Origen in Palestine? It is not certain. Because of Jerome and a few others, should they be taken as Nazoreans ? They represent a movement similar to theirs, but also separate. |
