Cairo Genizah : Book of Josippon

Cairo Genizah

<p style='text-align: justify;'>Book of Josippon (ספר יוסף בן גוריון) in its Judaeo-Arabic version. It begins in the list of nations, referring to Macedonia and Tarsus, p. 549 in the Sela edition (2009) and cf. Flusser (1978: 6), and breaks off in the story of Mattityahu (Mattathias) b. Yoḥanan. Titles of major sections are written in larger script. The hand is Yemeni, probably of the 15th or 16th century. There is what appears to be a dedication note in the left-hand margin of f. 19r, but it is mostly obscured by early conservation.</p>
