Nonetheless, the analysis of the manuscript tradition allows us to trace its origin back to the Nestorian milieu and, consequently, to compare it with anti-Bardaisan polemicists such as Theodor Bar Koni. The analysis of the theological vocabulary of the hymn reveals an astonishing closeness to Bardaisan’s theology — the essence of God the Creator (ítyâ) is closely related to the essence of the of the created world. The archaic character of this theology appears to gain in comparison with Ephrem’s anti-Bardaisan polemics, since Ephrem conceives ítyâ as the Name of God. Therefore, this study proposes the attribution of the hymn of Ps-Ephrem to a Nestorian author who was quite familiar with the hymns of Bardaisan and elaborated an orthodox answer to the doctrine that placed the divine ítyâ among the elements of the world.
