| - | Translators of books of the Old Testament into Egyptian dialects were naturally made from the Alexandrian Greek version ([[Septuagint]]), and there is no reason to doubt that they were translated at as early a date as the Gospels and Epistles, if not indeed before them. Portions of the Old Testament exist in each Egyptian dialect.<sup>[1]</sup>

| |
| - | In Sahidic, some Biblical books survived with complete text, there is a large number of extant fragments representing most of the canonical books and certain of the deutero-canonical (the two Wisdoms, the Epistle of Jeremiah, and the Greek additions to Daniel).

| - | The two main dialects, Sahidic and Bohairic, are the most important for the study of early versions of the New Testament. The Sahidic was the leading dialect in the pre-[[Islam]]ic period. The earliest Bohairic manuscripts date to the 4th century
| |

| |
| - | === Sahidic ===
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The collection of manuscripts of Sahidic translations is often designated by cop<sup>sa</sup> in academic writing and [[critical apparatus]] ("Sa" for "versio Sahidica" in BHS). The first translation into the Sahidic dialect was made at the end of the 2nd century in Upper Egypt, where Greek was less well understood. So the Sahidic is famous for being the first major literary development of the Coptic language, though literary work in the other dialects soon followed. By the ninth century, Sahidic was gradually replaced by neighbouring Bohairic, and disappeared. Knowledge of the Sahidic manuscripts was lost until they were rediscovered in the 18th century. In 1778 [[Carl Gottfried Woide|Woide]] issued a prospectus in which he announced his intention of publishing from Oxford manuscripts the fragments of the New Testament "iuxta interpretationem dialecti Superioris Aegypti, quae Thebaidica seu Sahidica appellantur".<sup>[1]</sup> Another fragments were published in 1884 by [[Émile Amélineau]].<sup>[1]</sup> Amélineau also edited other fragments in 1886-1888.<sup>[1]</sup>
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Several years later [[George William Horner|Horner]] produced a critical edition of the Sahidic New Testament over the period 1911–1924.<sup>[1]</sup> Horner's edition containing almost every verse of the entire New Testament. The Sahidic translation is a representative of the [[Alexandrian text-type]].

| - | ; Some manuscripts
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Some of the more notable manuscripts of the Sahidic are the following.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | * '''The ''Crosby-Schøyen Codex''''' is a papyrus manuscript of 52 leaves (12x12 cm). It contains the complete text of [[Book of Jonah]] and [[First Epistle of Peter|1 Peter]] (2 Maccabees 5:27-8:41, [[Melito of Sardis]], ''Peri Pascha'' 47-105, unidentified ''Homily''). It is dated to the 3rd or 4th centuries and is held at the [[University of Mississippi]].<sup>[1]</sup>
| |
| - | * '''British Library MS. Oriental 7594''' contains an unusual combination of books: Deuteronomy, Jonah, and Acts. It is dated paleographically to the late 3rd or early 4th century.<sup>[1]</sup>
| |
| - | * '''Michigan MS. Inv 3992''', a papyrus codex, has 42 folios (14 by 15 cm). It contains 1 Corinthians, Titus, and the Book of Psalms. It is dated to the 4th century.
| |
| - | * '''Berlin MS. Or. 408''' and British Museum Or. 3518, being parts of the same original document. The Berlin portion contains the Book of Revelation, 1 John, and Philemon (in this order). It is dated to the 4th century.
| |
| - | * '''''[[Papyrus Bodmer XIX|Bodmer XIX]]''''' — Matthew 14:28-28:20; Romans 1:1-2:3; 4th or 5th century.
| |
| - | * '''''Bodmer XLII''''' — 2 Corinthians; dialect unknown; Wolf-Peter Funk suggest Sahidic;<sup>[1]</sup>

| |
| - | [[image:Uncial 0177 r Lk 1,59-73.jpg|thumbnail|[[Uncial 0177]] with the text of Luke 1:59-73]]
| |
| - | The Bohairic (dialect of Lower Egypt) translation was made a little later, as the Greek language was more influential in lower (northern) Egypt. Probably, it was made in the beginning of the 3rd century. It was a very literal translation; many Greek words, and even some grammatical forms (e.g. syntactic construction μεν — δε) were incorporated to this translation. For this reason, the Bohairic translation is more helpful in the reconstruction of the early Greek text than any other ancient translation. It should also be noted that the Bohairic translation was influenced by several variables, including the other dialects, primarily Sahidic and Fayyumic. When the patriarchate moved from [[Alexandria]] to [[Cairo]] in the 11th century, Bohairic was the dominant language of the Coptic church. As the official dialect of the [[Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria|Coptic Orthodox Church]], Bohairic seems to enjoy a strong relationship with mainly the other dialects, [[Egyptian Arabic]] and—as it was for several centuries—Greek. The text is mainly Alexandrian, somewhat influenced by the [[Western text-type]]. The Bohairic translation is designated by cop<sup>bo</sup>.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The order of books: Gospels (John, Matthew, Mark, Luke), Pauline epistles (Hebrews between 2 Thess and 1 Tim), Catholic epistles, Acts, and Apocalypse.<sup>[1]</sup> The Apocalypse is preserved in relatively few manuscripts.<sup>[1]</sup>

| |
| - | * The earliest surviving manuscript of the four Gospels is dated A.D. 889. It is not complete.
| |
| - | * ''[[Papyrus Bodmer III]]'' is the oldest manuscript of the Bohairic version.<sup>[1]</sup> It was discovered by John M. Bodmer of Geneva in Upper Egypt. It contains the Gospel of John, dated palaeographically to the 4th century. It contains 239 pages, but the first 22 are damaged.

| - | The Bohairic version was employed by [[John Mill (theologian)|Mill]] for his edition of 1707. It was first published in 1716 by Wilkins, who edited "Novum Testamentum Aegyptium vulgo Copticum". His edition was accompanied with a Latin translation.<sup>[1]</sup> Horner produced a critical edition of the Bohairic New Testament in 1898-1905.<sup>[1]</sup> Horner used more than fifty Bohairic manuscripts preserved in that time in the libraries of Europe.<sup>[1]</sup>
