Abstract

The Letter to the Philippians is the sole surviving work of the early Christian bishop and martyr, Polycarp of Smyrna. Ever since the 17th century scholars have contested the authenticity and unity of the letter without reaching a settlement. However, new linguistic evidence allows for a reassessment of the controversy. The future participle πρεσβεύσοντα at Pol. Phil. XIII.1 is one of a mere four occurrences of FPs in the entire corpus of the Apostolic Fathers, and the use of the FP is exceedingly rare among low-register Judeo-Christian texts in general. The statistical analysis over a wide range of Ancient Greek literary texts conducted in this paper lends support to the conclusion that Pol. Phil. is a uniform text with a spurious interpolation in the form of the bulk of chapter XIII.

Pol的将来分词。菲尔。十三:重新评估波利卡普致腓立比书的真实性和统一性

《腓立比书》是早期基督教主教和殉道者士麦拿的波利卡普唯一幸存的作品。自17世纪以来，学者们一直在争论这封信的真实性和统一性，但没有达成解决方案。然而，新的语言学证据允许对争议进行重新评估。将来分词πρεσβ α at Pol。菲尔。十三。1是在整个使徒教父语料库中出现的四次FPs之一，FP的使用在一般低注册的犹太教-基督教文本中极为罕见。本文对广泛的古希腊文学文本进行了统计分析，支持了波尔。菲尔。是一个统一的文本，以第十三章的大部分形式进行虚假的插值。
