Summary/Abstract: This article continues the study of the pericope John 20.19–31 in the Ruthenian didactic gospels of the 16th–18th centuries and focuses on the Lviv textual group, which consists of 10 textual versions. The earliest of them (the Knyahynychi gospel) is dated from around the middle of 16th century, and the latest one (the gospel of Yulian Dobrylovsky) is from 1792. A distinctive feature of this group is the use of Church Slavonic, whereas Ruthenian usually predominates in didactic gospels of this region and period. In 5 of the 10 manuscripts, the Gospel text (not always in itsentirety) appears as separate fragments scattered throughout the homily; nonetheless, all the listed sources have been classified as belonging to the Lviv group. The article briefly describes the manuscripts of this group, outlining their key characteristics and textual interrelationships. An appendix includes a critical edition based on the pericope from the Lviv didactic gospel, and also presents a typeset of the pericope from the Knyahynychi didactic gospel.
