Bazaar of Heraclides
- Scope & Content:
-
The Tegúrtā d-Heraqlídús, also known as the Bazaar of Heraclides, composed originally by Nestorius. The text is a vindication of Nestorius'' theology and actions. In it, he affirms the unity of Jesus as both God and man and rejects the belief system that came to be known as Nestorianism.
The current manuscript is copied in neat Madhnḥāyā script in black and red ink with occasional marginalia in both Syriac and English. Rare pages also feature small floral illuminations around Syriac quire marks.
The colophon is written in the same script and colour scheme as the main text, but with a different writing instrument and with less clarity. The work was copied in the town of Ula in the country of Salamas in the year 1906 (CE) by the Priest Qašíšā Gibrāᵓíl bar Qašíšā Mafiše.
