Résumé :

The article attempts to introduce readers to major manuscripts of the treatise on the seven church sacraments written by the monk Job Hamartolos. At least seven manuscripts containing the text of this literary monument were discovered. The only publication of this work was made at the beginning of the 18th century by Patriarch Chrysanthos (Notaras) of Jerusalem, but at that time the text underwent significant editing. That is why new edition of this literary monument is necessary if one wants to form a clear picture of how the doctrine on the church sacraments developed in late Byzantine theology. Keywords: Job Hamartolos, Patriarch Chrysanthos (Notaras) of Jerusalem, sacramentology, number of sacraments, late Byzantine theology
