В статье рассматриваются два случая заимствования зороастрийских мифологических мотивов сирийскими христианами. Первый пример, засвидетельствованный впервые в сочинениях Ефрема Сирина (IV в.), касается реинтерпретации традиционного образа библейского Рая как опоясывающей весь мир космической горы, возникшей, по всей вероятности, под влиянием иранских космологических традиций, связанных с горой Албурз. В качестве второго примера обсуждается использование автором анонимного сирийского ...
