Platform of the Arabic Versions of the New Testament
PAVONe is an online database comprising a corpus of digitized and transcribed Arabic manuscripts of the four Gospels copied between the 9th and 19th centuries. The corpus includes the verses of the Gospels transmitted to us in the manuscript tradition (continuous text, lectionaries, etc.) and as citations in other writings (writings of Church Fathers, liturgical texts, Arabic and Islamic literature, etc.).

The aim of this project is to improve our understanding of the Gospels' Arabic translations. PAVONe offers scholars and researchers a toolset to examine these manuscripts and make it easier for them to analyze the text. It also aims at highlighting the richness and diversity of these translations. These Arabic Biblical texts are important for they enrich our knowledge of the Eastern Christian communities and open new horizons in the study of the relations between Christians and Muslims by adding to the database all the citations and allusions of the Gospels verses in the literature produced by Christians and Muslims in the first millennium.
