List of Qulasta prayers

Last updated

The list below contains the 414 Mandaean prayers in E. S. Drower's 1959 Canonical Prayerbook (also known as the Qulasta), along with their ritual uses. [1]

Contents

Outline

Below is a brief outline of the Qulasta. [2]

List

Explanatory notes

Opening lines, which exclude frequently used formulas such as "In the name of Hayyi Rabbi", are included since the original scribal commentaries in the Qulasta manuscripts, as well as external priestly esoteric commentaries (e.g., Scroll of Exalted Kingship ), typically refer to each Qulasta prayer by its opening line rather than by an ordered number. The English translations of the opening lines are from Drower (1959), while the Mandaic transliterations of the opening lines, when available, are from Mark Lidzbarski's Mandäische Liturgien (1920) [3] and The Qulasta by Gelbert & Lofts (2025). [2] A list of opening lines is also listed in Al-Mubaraki (2010). [4] [5]

Drower (1959) also categorizes the prayers into different sections. Originally, some of these sections had historically been separate manuscripts before they had been compiled by Mandaean scribes into single codices (books) such as MS Drower 53 (also known as DC 53).

Each prayer is typically recited only for a specific stage of a certain ritual, as listed in the "commentary" column below. For example, see Tarmida § Prayer sequence for a detailed list of prayers recited during different stages of the tarmida initiation ceremony.

Corresponding prayers in Lidzbarski's Mandäische Liturgien (1920) are also provided. [3]

Many of the prayers are identical or nearly identical duplicates of other prayers in the prayerbook, as listed in the "corresponding prayer" column in the below. [2] Duplicate prayers omitted by Drower (1959) and Gelbert & Lofts (2025) are shaded in   light blue  ; prayer variants (prayers 259, 260, 412, etc.) are not shaded.
