Няколко слабо известни апокрифни молитви от 1497-1498 г.
Some Little Known Apocryphal Prayers from the 1497-1498 Period

Summary/Abstract: The article presents seven apocryphal prayers in "Часослов" from 1497/1498, kept in the library of the Eastern Orthodox Patriarchy in Jerusalem. Resides the prayers, the manuscript also features apocryphal compositions, including also 75 prescriptions for the treatment of different diseases. The prayers are against "nezhit" evil spells, snakes, nose bleeding, rabies, hold¬ing of water in the body and against "the Migrin worm", gnawing at the teeth and jaws of people. Sonic of them are quite short, but others have been composed as complete narrations with a plot, dramatic personae and dialogue. Prescrptions, mostly of a magic character, are applied in almost all of the cases for curing the sick person. Particularly interesting is the idea of the relationship of these prayers with an¬cient texts in the Akkadian languages from the New Babylonian Kingdom, which ex¬isted long years BC. It has been developed quite recently by L. Radenkovic regarding "nezhit". The author has now added yet another analogy in the prayer against the horrible "Migrin worm". In the Christian variant, Apostle Paul substitutes the ancient Shamash.
