Book Correlation Scrutiny of Codices IX and X and the New Testament

Download or read book Correlation Scrutiny of Codices IX and X and the New Testament written by L. Mwansa and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2023 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: In my essay is an attempt to have an in depth analysis of correlation between codices IX and X with the New Testament. According to James Robinson in his book "The Coptic Gnostic Library Volume V", Codices IX and X are part of a composition of twelve papyrus codices, plus one treatise from a thirteenth, discovered in December of 1945, about 10 km. northeast of Nag Hammadi, in a jar buried at the base of the Gebel et-Tarif near the village of Hamra Dom in Upper Egypt. Codex IX on one hand has been numbered VIII in 1949 by J. Doresse and T. Mina, in 1950 number X by H. C. Puech, in 1958 numbered IV by S. Giversen and by B.van Regemorter in 1960, in 1958 number V by J. Doresse , and in 1962 numbered IX by M. Krause, this numbering by Krause of the Nag Hammadi codices is accepted as the official numbering and is used by the Coptic Museum and in the Facsimile Edition, and is therefore adopted in this edition. Codex IX was found with its leather cover intact and photographs of the cover are shown in the Facsimile Edition, plates 1 to 4. A full specification of the cover, which was made of sheepskin and goatskin, is given by J. M. Robinson in his foreword to the Facsimile Edition. Robinson has demonstrated, in a thorough analysis of all of the leather covers of the Nag Hammadi Library in existence, that Codex IX, typologically is in a the same class with Codices VI and X, and II, to a lesser extent. The codex is very poorly kept. Substantial portions of it are not there altogether or kept only in fragments. As is the case with the other codices in the library with the exception of Codex I, the study of the extant material has shown that the codex was composed of a single quire. From pp 27 to 48, this inside portion of the codex is comparatively well kept. The inside fragment was reinstated to its archetype sheet in the final conservation of Codex IX in 1974; the Facsimile Edition, p 41. It is obvious that fragments cannot be placed as in a jig-saw puzzle since so much of the codex is lost and damaged as such a certain criteria has been prepared for placement of fragments and for establishing the sequence of pages.

Book The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind

Download or read book The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind written by Julian Jaynes and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2000-08-15 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry

  • ISBN : 0061977020
  • Pages : 258 pages

Download or read book Misquoting Jesus written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When world-class biblical scholar Bart Ehrman first began to study the texts of the Bible in their original languages he was startled to discover the multitude of mistakes and intentional alterations that had been made by earlier translators. In Misquoting Jesus, Ehrman tells the story behind the mistakes and changes that ancient scribes made to the New Testament and shows the great impact they had upon the Bible we use today. He frames his account with personal reflections on how his study of the Greek manuscripts made him abandon his once ultraconservative views of the Bible. Since the advent of the printing press and the accurate reproduction of texts, most people have assumed that when they read the New Testament they are reading an exact copy of Jesus's words or Saint Paul's writings. And yet, for almost fifteen hundred years these manuscripts were hand copied by scribes who were deeply influenced by the cultural, theological, and political disputes of their day. Both mistakes and intentional changes abound in the surviving manuscripts, making the original words difficult to reconstruct. For the first time, Ehrman reveals where and why these changes were made and how scholars go about reconstructing the original words of the New Testament as closely as possible. Ehrman makes the provocative case that many of our cherished biblical stories and widely held beliefs concerning the divinity of Jesus, the Trinity, and the divine origins of the Bible itself stem from both intentional and accidental alterations by scribes -- alterations that dramatically affected all subsequent versions of the Bible.

  • Author : J. Warner Wallace
  • Publisher : David C Cook
  • Release : 2013-01-01
  • ISBN : 1434705463
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Cold Case Christianity written by J. Warner Wallace and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by an L. A. County homicide detective and former atheist, Cold-Case Christianity examines the claims of the New Testament using the skills and strategies of a hard-to-convince criminal investigator. Christianity could be defined as a “cold case”: it makes a claim about an event from the distant past for which there is little forensic evidence. In Cold-Case Christianity, J. Warner Wallace uses his nationally recognized skills as a homicide detective to look at the evidence and eyewitnesses behind Christian beliefs. Including gripping stories from his career and the visual techniques he developed in the courtroom, Wallace uses illustration to examine the powerful evidence that validates the claims of Christianity. A unique apologetic that speaks to readers’ intense interest in detective stories, Cold-Case Christianity inspires readers to have confidence in Christ as it prepares them to articulate the case for Christianity.
