State of Preservation: The book of Daniel has survived, complete or in fragments, in four different major Coptic Dialects: Bohairic (B), Sahidic (S), Fayumic (F), and Akhmimic (A). Only B has preserved the complete text of the book, including the Apocryphal 14th vision. F, which is derived from B, has preserved an early text, but very fragmentary. S, only a little more than 40% of the text is preserved. A, which is derived from S, only preserved a few verses. The text in general has been preserved in whole or in part in one of three different forms: Biblical codex (C), Lectionary (L), and liturgical readings or prayers (R).
