Эта история получила дальнейшее развитие в более поздних памятниках, среди которых в статье особое внимание уделяется средневековой палейной литературе — текстам, где перемежаются библейский парафраз, богословие, полемика, а также апокрифические легенды (Историческая Палея, Толковая Палея и Хронографическая Палея, а также южнославянские и армянские тексты, посвященные Аврааму). Эта литература часто обделена вниманием исследователей истории о гостеприимстве Авраама. Автор концентрируется на рассматриваемой истории в контексте этой литературы и связанных с ней текстов, а также на возможном влиянии данной традиции на восточную христианскую иконографию. Демонстрируется, что в этом пласте христианского предания, как и в других экзегетических произведениях, история об Аврааме выходит за рамки повествования о гостеприимстве. Кроме типичных для христианской экзегезы рассматриваемого отрывка тем, касающихся идентификации трех странников, литургические и христологические элементы проявляются в эпизодах, описывающих пост Авраама перед явлением трех странников и воскрешение заколотого и приготовленного теленка, предложенного патриархом своим гостям. Предание об отказе Авраама от пищи и воды в ожидании гостей, вероятно, имеет византийское происхождение, а рассказ о воскрешении закланного теленка может восходить к древнему иудейскому источнику, который также отражен в Зав. Авр. A 6.4–5.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>This article investigates the story of Abraham’s hospitality in Gen 18:1–16, which became a kind of paradigm for behavior toward strangers in Judaism and Christianity as well as the source of mystical, Christological and Trinitarian interpretations. This story was further developed in later texts, among which the medieval Palaea literature (texts which combine biblical paraphrase, theology, and polemic, as well as some apocryphal legends) has to be specially emphasized. Unfortunately, this literature is often neglected by scholars dealing with Abraham’s hospitality. The article focuses on the story of Abraham’s hospitality in the context of this literature and related texts, as well as the possible influence of this tradition on Eastern Christian iconography. The article demonstrates that in this stratum of Christian tradition as well as in other exegetical works, the story about Abraham goes beyond the narrative of hospitality. In addition to concerns about the identification of the three strangers, which is a typical topic of Christian exegesis of Gen 18:1–16, in this literature, liturgical and Christological elements appear in the episode about Abraham’s fasting before the coming of the three strangers and in that about the resuscitation of the slaughtered and cooked calf which the patriarch earlier offered to his guests. The legend of Abraham’s refusal of food and water while waiting for guests is probably of Byzantine origin, while the account of the resurrection of the slaughtered calf may go back to an ancient Jewish source, which is also reflected in Test. Abr. A 6.4–5.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Библия</kwd><kwd>иудаизм</kwd><kwd>христианство</kwd><kwd>Палея</kwd><kwd>гостеприимство</kwd><kwd>трапеза</kwd><kwd>Авраам</kwd><kwd>Сарра</kwd><kwd>ангел</kwd><kwd>Троица</kwd><kwd>Христос</kwd><kwd>иконография</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Bible</kwd><kwd>Judaism</kwd><kwd>Christianity</kwd><kwd>Palaea</kwd><kwd>hospitality</kwd><kwd>meal</kwd><kwd>Abraham</kwd><kwd>Sarah</kwd><kwd>angel</kwd><kwd>Trinity</kwd><kwd>Christ</kwd><kwd>iconography</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group xml:lang="ru"><funding-statement>Статья подготовлена в рамках выполнения научно-исследовательской работы государственного задания РАНХиГС</funding-statement></funding-group><funding-group xml:lang="en"><funding-statement>The article was written on the basis of the RANEPA state assignment research programme</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Бадаланова, Милтенова 1996 — Бадаланова Ф., Милтенова А.
