The purpose of this article is to examine the main linguistic features of the Arabic of Sulaymān al-Ġazzī's theological treatises. In order to give a new critical edition of these texts, we analyzed their manuscript sources. In the paper we list the numerous Middle Arabic features as Blau described them in his fundamental work (1966-67). After this preliminary research, we can maintain that Middle Arabic is not only the linguistic register that Christians Arabs used in their literature of translation, but also, in some cases, in their original works.

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to examine the main linguistic features of the Arabic of Sulaymān al-Ġazzī's theological treatises. In order to give a new critical edition of these texts, we analyzed their manuscript sources. In the paper we list the numerous Middle Arabic features as Blau described them in his fundamental work (1966-67). After this preliminary research, we can maintain that Middle Arabic is not only the linguistic register that Christians Arabs used in their literature of translation, but also, in some cases, in their original works.
