Resumen:
Manuscript Ambrosianus B 21 inf., dated to sixth orseventh century CE, is famous for being the sole complete witness to the SyriacApocalypse of Baruch. However, the manuscript does contain other Apocalyptictexts and deserves to be studied as a whole. The present paper will explore thecodicological and textual composition of this biblical manuscript and highlightthe rationale of the choices to include certain texts. It will also place thismanuscript within the larger background of Late antique Apocalypticexpectations, mostly Jewish.
