This volume contains a completed edition of Didymus the Blind’s commentary on Psalms 26:10-29:2 and Psalms 36:1-3 that was discovered in Tura in the early 1940s. In 1984/85 Brigham Young University acquired five folia comprising quinion eight (Pss. 26:10-29:2) and the first bifolium of quire sixteen (Ps. 36:1-3) of Didymus’ psalm commentary; in total this material consists of twenty-two complete pages of Greek text. This volume contains an introduction to these papyri, a transcription (articulated, diplomatic and prosodic), an English translation, as well as notes and commentary, indices and plates. As these papyri have never been published and are the last known portion of Didymus’ commentary on Psalms, they are very important and sure to be of interest to both papyrologists and scholars of early Christianity.
