Abstract

This chapter sets out the state of scholarship on the catena tradition on the Epistle to the Hebrews. It provides details of the three main types (the Pseudo- Oecumenian catena, the Typus Parisinus and the catena of Nicetas of Heraclea), their manuscript attestation and their significance for the New Testament text. The commentary of Theophylact is also considered, in addition to other commentary manuscripts selected for the Editio Critica Maior of the Pauline Epistles. The four traditions associated with Chrysostom, Theodoret, John of Damascus and Euthymius Zigabenus often exhibit a distinctive biblical text and deserve further investigation.
