Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The six biblical manuscripts that reside in the Freer Gallery of Art in Washington DC are historically significant artifacts for tracing the early history of the transmission of the writings that make up the New Testament and the Septuagint. The manuscripts, all purchased in Egypt at the beginning of the twentieth century by Charles Freer, date to the third through fifth centuries and include codices of the four Gospels, Deuteronomy and Joshua, the Psalms, and the Pauline Epistles, as well as a Coptic codex of the Psalms and a papyrus codex of the Minor Prophets, which, until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, was the earliest Greek manuscript of the Minor Prophets known. The ten essays in this volume are a notable collection of fresh scholarship with long-term value for the study of what is a small but highly valuable treasure trove of biblical manuscripts. The contributors are Malcolm Choat, Kent D. Clarke, Kristin De Troyer, Timothy J. Finney, Dennis Haugh, Larry W. Hurtado, J. Bruce Prior, Jean-Francois Racine, James R. Royse, Ulrich Schmid, and Thomas A. Wayment. Book jacket.

This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Testament Manuscripts in the Freer Collection Five years have elapsed since the publication of Part I of this volume, yet the editor has changed his views on the problem so little that this part of the work is in the main a reprint. However, in the tables of parallel readings MS 892 has been added, when found in agreement, except 44 cases in the table of Hesychian readings on pp. 48 ff. and 39 cases in a similar list on pp. 104 ff. As MS 892 is closely related to N, that is, pure Hesychian, there was no point in adding its evidence in tables of readings already classified as Hesychian. These tables of parallel readings were further corrected by use of the new collations of MSS 28, 153, and 22. Likewise some corrections have been taken from the reviews, notably from those by E. J. Goodspeed in the American Journal of Theology, xvii. pp. 240 ff. and in Classical Philology, ix. pp. 331 ff. Excellent as the Facsimile Edition is, over-reliance upon it has sometimes led this critic astray, notably in handling erasures. It is not necessary to enumerate the cases nor to note the misprints in his articles. All that is correct has been incorporated in the new edition. The publication of the Fragments of the Epistles of Paul completes the study of the four Biblical manuscripts bought by Mr. Freer in 1906. These badly decayed fragments were left until the last because of their supposed inferior value and still more because of the difficulty of separating and reading accurately such small and discolored pieces of parchment. Most of the labor of editing has fallen to this part of the work, in the course of which the original collation has been compared and corrected three times. Somewhat more was read in the first collation than could be seen on later examination, but the fragments now seem to be keeping perfectly and so will be available for future reference. Owing to the extreme discoloration of most of the fragments a facsimile edition is impracticable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt: Textual variants arise when a copyist makes deliberate or inadvertent alterations to a text being reproduced. Some common alterations include the deletion, rearrangement, repetition, or replacement of one or more words when the copyist's eye returns to a similar word in the wrong location of the original text. If their eye skips to an earlier word, they may create a repetition (error of dittography). If their eye skips to a later word, they may create an omission, or they may resort to performing a slight rearranging of words to retain the overall meaning without compromising the context. In other instances, the copyist may add text from memory from a similar or parallel text in another location. Otherwise, they may also replace some text of the original with an alternative reading. Spellings occasionally change. Synonyms may be substituted. A pronoun may be changed into a proper noun (such as "he said" becoming "Jesus said"). Origen, writing in the 3rd century, was one of the first who made remarks about differences between...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Freer Gospels The Freer Gospels first claimed the attention of modern scholars in the autumn of 1906, when a Gizeh dealer showed it with other ancient Biblical manuscripts to Dr. Grenfell and Dr. Hunt in Cairo. The manuscript with its three companions was purchased on December 19, 1906, by Mr. Charles L. Freer, and was sent to America. At a meeting of archaeologists held in Chicago on December 30, 1907, it was announced and briefly discussed, by Professor Henry A. Sanders. The text of the manuscript, which Professor Gregory has designated W, has since been carefully collated by Professor Sanders with an Oxford edition (1880) of the Received Text. The limited currency of that text and particularly of that edition in this country, and probably also in England, and the fact that we are dealing not with a mediaeval cursive, but with an ancient uncial, make it seem desirable to put forth a collation with the text of Westcott and Hort, as the one most generally in use among English-speaking students. The appearance through the munificence of Mr. Freer of an excellent facsimile edition of the Freer Gospels and the distribution of this edition among leading libraries make such a collation easy, but not superfluous, since relatively few of those who feel an interest in the text of the manuscript will have convenient access to the facsimile edition, and few who do will have leisure for a continuous collation. How the new manuscript relates to Westcott and Hort is moreover what many students wish to know. To make the testimony of the Freer Gospels accessible to the widest possible circle of textual students, therefore, I have undertaken to provide a collation of its text with that of Westcott and Hort. I have sought to make this collation substantially complete; but mere itacisms, except in some proper names, and in some words where they may have a certain significance, I have disregarded, as well as Imam/179 for 'iwaiw;s and the habitual addition of v-movable to e'an', third singulars in 'e, and words in m. This is so constant that I have sought to record in a special note only W's failures to insert it where it might have stood.

Excerpt: Codex Sinaiticus (Hebrew:, Greek: Shelfmarks and references: London, Brit. Libr., Additional Manuscripts 43725; Gregory-Aland n or 01, ) or "Sinai Bible" is one of the four great uncial codices, an ancient, handwritten copy of the Greek Bible. The codex is a celebrated historical treasure. The codex is an Alexandrian text-type manuscript written in the 4th century in uncial letters on parchment. Current scholarship considers the Codex Sinaiticus to be one of the best Greek texts of the New Testament, along with that of the Codex Vaticanus. Until the discovery by Tischendorf of the Sinaiticus text, the Codex Vaticanus was unrivaled. The Codex Sinaiticus came to the attention of scholars in the 19th century at the Greek Orthodox Monastery of Mount Sinai, with further material discovered in the 20th and 21st centuries. Although parts of the Codex are scattered across four libraries around the world, most of...

Book excerpt: A provocative book from a highly original scholar, challenging much of what we know about early Christian manuscripts In this bold and groundbreaking book, Brent Nongbri provides an up-to-date introduction to the major collections of early Christian manuscripts and demonstrates that much of what we thought we knew about these books and fragments is mistaken. While biblical scholars have expended much effort in their study of the texts contained within our earliest Christian manuscripts, there has been a surprising lack of interest in thinking about these books as material objects with individual, unique histories. We have too often ignored the ways that the antiquities market obscures our knowledge of the origins of these manuscripts. Through painstaking archival research and detailed studies of our most important collections of early Christian manuscripts, Nongbri vividly shows how the earliest Christian books are more than just carriers of texts or samples of handwriting. They are three-dimensional archaeological artifacts with fascinating stories to tell, if we’re willing to listen.

Sackler Gallery that assembles, for the first time, seventy of the most important biblical codices in the world. though the Bible has been called teh best-selling book of all time, the term itself comes from the Greek for "a collection of books." the Bible that we know today was compiled over centuries and comprises numerous components, from the books associated with Moses to the Gospels credited to the Four Evangelists.IN tHE BEGINNING gathers many of the most important early witnesses to the Hebrew and Christian bibles. the physical evidence for the earliest copies of scriptures is fragmentary and partial, from scraps of fragile papyrus to battered vellum codices. Here they are preserved in a sumptuously illustrated volume that captures this formative period of human history. three leading authorities in the field explore the Bible through its first thousand years, revealing both its transformation into a complex symbol of fatih and the parallel "evolution" of the book as a medium for the transmission of information-one of the greatest technological revolutions the world has ever known.
