Mushe of Aggel

https://gedsh.bethmardutho.org/Mushe-of-Aggel http://syriaca.org/bibl/393 384 Inghilene http://syriaca.org/person/64 [person] [Translator of Cyril of Alexandria and other texts.]

Inghilene (6th cent.) [Syr. Orth.]

Translator of Cyril of Alexandria ’s Glaphyra and of the History of Joseph and Aseneth (incorporated into Pseudo-Zacharias’s Ecclesiastical History, I.6). Both translations are accompanied by letters where Mushe explains something of the circumstances of his work and his (then) novel practice of translating Greek biblical citations, rather than adapting them to the Peshitta.
