Coptic Apocalypse of Daniel – now online

I’ve translated Macler’s version and placed it here.  This translation has no scholarly value, of course, but is more like research notes.  I place it in the public domain, so do as you will with it. 

If you’d like to support the site, please buy a copy of the CD of the Fathers.

The text was written, in Coptic, ca. 1187 AD.  That means that Richard the Lionheart could have met people whose first language was this last dialect of Ancient Egyptian!
