Letter via HGV-meta
Letter to a holy father about a quarrelsome man and church services. Coptic ostracon letter to a holy father, probably a bishop or abbot, in which the writer defends himself in a dispute with a man who refused reconciliation, spoke improperly, appointed a priest on his own authority and broke the commandment of love. The writer reports that, on the father's order, the man is being allowed to hold services, with restrictions on clergy attending. machine translation
