Description
Summary:In the thirteenth century, a Syriac poem of four lines relating the Aristotelian categories to the incarnation was composed by a famous East Syrian poet, Khamīs bar Qardaḥe. In this poem, Khamīs challenged the coherence of Syriac Orthodox incarnational Christology and attracted poetic replies from two prominent Syriac Orthodox figures: Daniel bar Ḥaṭṭāb and Gregory bar ʿEbrāyā. This article presents a critical edition of these three related poems as well as an English translation, discussions of their authorship and transmission, and a commentary on their contents.
