Abstracts

EN

The hitherto unpublished and unresearched Homily on Christ’s Baptism (EMML 7028, f. 6v-20r, dated 1397/8) contains, apart from the predictable Christian theological content, some remarks on Islam. They serve a mostly rhetorical purpose, equating a Christian“heresy” condemned by the author with the religion of the Muslims. These passages, when analysed in detail, reveal some knowledge of Muslim customs and religion such as the lack of Christ’s divinity and the name of the Prophet. This shows that the élite circles of the Ethiopian Church had some familiarity with Islam and that the study of unpublished Ethiopic manuscripts can shed some new light on this phenomenon.
