Pseudo-Clemens Romanus, homilia 3,72 als petrinisches Konsekrationsgebet der Kopten und der ägyptischen Melchiten

Several consecration rites of the Coptic liturgy and the liturgy of the Egyptian Melkites take up the prayer by Clemens Romanus, homilia 3,72 supplying therefore an up to now almost unconsidered attestation of their little spread model. The liturgical editing of the prayer originates from the time before the Alexandrine patriarchy split up as a result of the council of Chalkedon. It's probably part of the late-antique Corpus orationum of the lost Alexandrine ordination liturgy, from which later liturgicals of both denominations served themselves.
