Delivered on his feast day (24 Pachon) in a monastery rebuilt by Emperor Arcadius, the text recounts Raphael's powers, signs, and wonders, including his role in the story of Tobit. The work survives in Coptic manuscript tradition, first edited and translated by E.A. Wallis Budge in 1915. Its elevated, rhetorical style is typical of encomia, and it was used in monastic or liturgical settings. The attribution to Chrysostom is uncertain, and the text likely dates from later Coptic tradition rather than the 4th–5th century.","historical_context":"The text is a Coptic homily, likely composed in Egypt between the 6th and 9th centuries, though its exact date is unknown. It belongs to a genre of liturgical sermons (encomia) that praise angels or saints, common in Coptic monastic communities. The manuscript tradition preserves it among miscellaneous texts, indicating its use in monastic or liturgical settings. The attribution to John Chrysostom (d. 407) is pseudepigraphical, a common practice in Coptic literature to lend authority. The homily references the emperors Honorius and Arcadius (late 4th–early 5th century) and a monastery rebuilt by Arcadius, but these details may be literary fictions. The text was first edited and translated by E.A. Wallis Budge in 1915, reflecting early 20th-century Coptic scholarship. Its transmission is fragmentary, surviving only in Coptic manuscripts.","significance":"This encomium is significant as a witness to the veneration of the archangel Raphael in Coptic Christianity, particularly in monastic contexts. It illustrates the pseudepigraphical attribution of works to John Chrysostom in Coptic tradition and the blending of biblical (Tobit) and apocryphal angelology. The text also provides insight into liturgical practices, such as feast days and the use of encomia in Coptic worship.","timeline":[{"date":"4th–5th c.","event":"Life of John Chrysostom (c. 347–407), to whom the homily is pseudepigraphically attributed."},{"date":"6th–9th c.","event":"Probable composition of the Coptic homily, though exact date unknown."},{"date":"1915","event":"First edition and English translation by E.A.
