Descriptive card

The text is a double translation (Arabic-Syriac-Italian) of some Qur'anic passages of Christological subject. It was possibly compiled within the activities of the Typographia Medicea, and in particular within the Congregazione (Commission) for the edition, translation and confutation of the Qur'an. Leonardo Abel was in fact named in that Commission. The aim of the translations seem to be a confirmation of the Christian truth through the Qur'anic text.
