Why this is in the register

HOLLIS Primo 'catena in epistulam ad Hebraeos' returns 0 and 'catena in Hebraeos Cramer' returns 0; the Greek text is nonetheless identified positively through the HOLLIS record of Cramer's 8-volume set, whose contents note lists 't. 7. In Epp. s. Pauli ad Tim. Tit. Philem. et ad Heb. 1843'. That record carries only the Greek/Latin Oxford edition. No English translation of the Hebrews catena exists; modern English commentaries on Hebrews (e.g. in the Ancient Christian Commentary series) are fresh selections from the same Fathers, not translations of this chain. Greek text: Cramer, Catenae Graecorum Patrum in Novum Testamentum, vol. 7 (Oxford, 1843).

Largest catena in the Cramer corpus (c. 154,000 Greek words) and the principal channel for the Greek exegesis of Hebrews after Chrysostom. No modern edition, no translation.
