Everything about Codex Hierosolymitanus totally explained
Codex Hierosolymitanus (also called the
Bryennios manuscript or the
Jerusalem Codex, often designated simply
"H" in scholarly discourse) is an
11th-century Greek manuscript, written by an unknown scribe named Leo, who dated it
1056. Its designation of "Jerusalem" recalls its place of discovery by
Philotheos Bryennios in 1873 at the library of the
Patriarchate at Jerusalem, where it remains in the monastery of the Holy Sepulchre, see also
Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.
The
codex contains the
Didache, the
Epistle of Barnabas, the two epistles
1 Clement and
2 Clement, the long version of the
letters of Ignatius of Antioch, and a
list of books of the Bible following the order of
John Chrysostom. It was discovered in 1873 by
Philotheos Bryennios, the
metropolitan of
Nicomedia, at
Constantinople. He published the texts of the two familiar
epistles of Clement in 1875, overlooking the
Didache, which he found when he returned to the manuscript.
Adolf Hilgenfeld used
Codex Hierosolymitanus for his first printed edition of the previously all-but-unknown
Didache in
1877.
