I am oonvineed that it is only just measure to a book, which from a strong prejudice is not known nearly as much amongst Textualists as its great merit deserves, to draw more attention to ' The Revision Revised ' by the late Dean Burgon. Those who have really studied it, to whichever school they belong, know how it teems with suggestion all through its striking pages. The present book owes a vast debt to him. P. 248, 11. 8, 9 from bottom, /or Sir Edmund Beckett read Lord Grimthorpe. Some remains upon sacred Greek MSS. by Dr. Scrivener have been just published under the name of ' Adversaria Critica Sacra,' Cambridge : Uni- versity Press. Reference has been made in this edition to some of the proof- sheets which were sent to the Editor. Vol. I. Appendix A. INTRODUCTION TO THE CRITICISM OF THE TEXT OF THE NEW TESTAMENT. CHAPTER I. ANCIENT VEESIONS. 1. 'PHE facts stated in the preceding volume have led us to believe that no extant manuscript of the Greek Testament yet discovered is older than the fourth century, and that those written as early as the sixth century are both few in number, and (with one notable exception) contain but incomplete por- , tions, for the most part very small portions, of the sacred volume. When to these considerations we add the well- known circumstance that the most ancient codices vary widely and perpetually from the commonly received text and from each other, it becomes desirable for us to obtain, if possible, some evidence as to the character of those copies of the New Tes- tament which were used by the primitive Christians in times anterior to the date of the most venerable now preserved. Such sources of information, though of a more indirect and precarious kind than manuscripts of the original can supply, are open to us in the Versions of Holy Scripture, made at the remotest period in the history of the Church, for the use of VOL. II. B ; 2 ANCIENT VERSIONS. com- believers whose native tongue was not Greek. After the the New Testament, it is evident position of the writings of ^ were that the Church was in possession of Sacred Books which members, of the utmost value, both to those who were already real and in the conversion of such as had not yet come to the knowledge of the Faith. The nearness of Syria to Judea, and the the growth of the Church at Antioch and Damascus in earliest days, must have produced a demand for a rendering condition of most into the Syriac languages ; and the bilingual of the Eoman Empire must have entailed a constant desire amongst vast multitudes to read in their own tongue a veri- fication of the truths taught them. Accordingly translations, certainly of the New and probably also of the Old Testament, were executed not later than the second century in the Syriac and Latin languages, and, so far as their present state enables us to judge of the documents from which they were rendered, they represent to us a modification of the inspired text which existed within a century of the death of the Apostles. Later on, the influence of Alexandria opened the districts to the south and gave birth to the Coptic versions. And about the time of the acceptance of the Christian Keligion by the Empire a further impetus was given, and the Vulgate and the Gothic and Ethiopic versions were soon made, followed by others according as the demand arose. Lideed, the fact that versions as a class go much further back than MSS., constitutes one of the chiefest points of their impor- tance in Textual Criticism ; since the range of the ancient versions may be roughly estimated as reaching from the second to the tenth century, whereas the period of extant MSS. did not com- mence till the fourth century was well advanced, and were con- tinued into the sixteenth. Their respective ages, too, are actually known, and do not rest upon probabilities, as in the first kind of evidence. They are also generally authorized translations, made either by a body of men, or by one eminent authority whose work was adopted amongst the people for whose use the Holy Scriptures had been translated. And they probably repre- sented, either many MSS., or a small body of accepted MSS. On the other hand, versions as evidence are not without their special drawbacks. It may be found as difficult to arrive at the primitive text of a version, as of the Greek original itself — ANCIENT VERSIONS. / 3 whether from variations in the different copies, or from suspi- cions of subsequent correction. Besides this, some are secondary- versions, being derived not from the Greek, but from some ver- sion of the Greek. Again, some are ' sense-translations ^,' rather than word-renderings, and it is in many cases difficult to infer their real verdict. Of course, none but an expert, such as Dr. S. C. Malan, or the Several revisers of the succeeding chapters of this edition, can pronounce upon the character of the verdict of a version in question. It will be seen then that versions by themselves cannot be taken to establish any' reading, because manuscripts are necessarily first authorities, and there is no lack of abundance in such testimony. Yet they confirm, or help to decide, the con- clusions or the leanings of manuscriptal evidence : and taken in connexion with other witnesses, they have much independent force, varying of course according to the character of the version or versions, and the nature and extent of their agreement. In this respect they possess great importance. The experience of recent years has shown that it is mis- leading to construct classes of versions in regard to their relative importance. Fuller knowledge casts aside, and often with contumely, such adventitious helps. Eeaders are there- fore referred for information upon each version to the chapter or section which is devoted to it, and are recommended to gather their apprehensions of the several values of those versions from the facts recorded therein, and from use of them in the various passages of Holy Scripture where they are cited. But the following is a list of the chief versions of the New Testament which were made before the introduction of printing, and a few handposts are inserted here and there for elementary guidance in the study of them : I. Peshitto Syriac (cent, ii), called ' the Queen of Ver- sions ' (Hort, cent. iii). II. Latin version or versions ^ (ii, or ii-iv). Kemarkable for age. • See Studia Biblica et Ecclesiastioa, ii.

  • The Apostolos Manuscripts of St. Petersburg
    The Apostolos manuscripts of St. Petersburg by E. Strelnikova St. Petersburg State University There are two significant collections of Greek manuscripts in Saint Petersburg with a long and complicated history. They were formed out of collections that belonged to various private, scholarly and monastic libraries. The collection of Greek manuscripts in the National Library of Russia contains 965 items dating from the 3rd to the 20th century, written on parchment, papyrus and paper. In the collection there are several manuscripts of extreme importance on a worldwide scale. The majority of manuscripts are fragments brought to Russia as items of various private collections. Last year (2014) researchers of the manuscript department finished The Catalogue of Greek Manuscripts of the National Library of Russia. It includes all manuscripts written in Greek which belong not only to the Greek collection but to some other manuscript collections of the National Library of Russia. There is still no online catalogue but recently projects for digitizing and uploading catalogues of the library have been initiated. Another important collection of Greek manuscripts belongs to the Library of the Russian Academy of Sciences, which has from 287 to 293 items according to different catalogues. The variation is due to discoveries of new manuscripts within collections already kept in the library, and the identification of two or more items in a single manuscript. 84 manuscripts belong to the period of the Byzantine Empire. The most numerous part of the collection is RAIK (the collection of the Russian Archaeological Institute in Constantinople). The only catalogue of the collection is The Description of the Manuscript Department of the Library of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, published in 1973 and written by a Russian paleographer, Irina Lebedeva.

    Ist das „CJ“ vom Apostel Johannes und Gottes Wort? 1Jh 5,6-8: „Dieser ist der, der durch Wasser und Blut kam, Jesus, der Gesalbte; nicht in dem Wasser allein, sondern in dem Wasser und dem Blut. Und der Geist ist der Bezeugende, weil der Geist die Wahrheit ist, 7 weil drei es sind, die Bezeugende ‹sind›: der Geist und das Wasser und das Blut, und die drei sind auf das eine ‹gerichtet› [o.: und die drei sind vereint].“ So nach dem byzantinischen Text und fast sämtlichen griech. Handschriften (Hss). Der t. r. hat einen längeren Text: „Dieser ist der, der durch Wasser und Blut kam, Jesus, der Gesalbte; nicht in dem Wasser allein, sondern in dem Wasser und dem Blut. Und der Geist ist der Bezeugende, weil der Geist die Wahrheit ist, 7 weil drei es sind, die im Himmel Bezeugende ‹sind›: der Vater, das Wort und der Heilige Geist, und diese drei sind eins; 8 und drei sind es, die auf der Erde Bezeugende ‹sind›: der Geist und das Wasser und das Blut, und die drei sind auf das eine ‹gerichtet› [o.: und die drei sind vereint].“ Den kursiv gedruckten Text nennt man in der Geschichte der Textkritik das Comma Johanneum (CJ; zu Deutsch: „der johanneische Einschub“; gemeint ist der Satz, wie ihn Stephanus 1550 in seiner griechischen Ausgabe des NT hatte). Das CJ wird ab 1550 von allen textus-receptus-Ausgaben bezeugt und erscheint in allen größeren receptus-Bibelübersetzungen. Wohl kein anderer Text des NT war unter Christen (vor allem im englischen Sprachraum) so umstritten.

  • The Authenticity of 1St John 5:7 Considered
    THE AUTHENTICITY OF 1 ST JOHN 5:7 CONSIDERED. Compiled by Rick Henwood – May , 2020. # The KJV is the Bible of choice used in this Study Document ; and the compiler has supplied all emphasis . Post Office Box 138; Nanango, Queensland, 4615. Australia. Copyr ight 20 20 - http://lookingforthelosttruthsofjesus.org “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.” – 1 st John 5:7 & 8 – King James Version. THE ISSUE TO BE EXAMINED: - This passage is generally attacked as being a supposed interpolation of Scripture, by two very different groups of professed Ch ristians: - 1 . Those professed Christians who deny the full deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, and who also de ny the Person of the Holy Spirit, thus attacking the Trinity doctrine, assert that 1 st John 5:7 is a spurious interpolation, which does not belong in the Bible. And, 2 . Man y Bible scholars and New Testament textual critics assert that 1 st John 5:7 is a spurious interpolation , which should find no place in the Bible. These critics do not generally reject the Trinity doctrine, but they use the supposed interpolation of this pa ssage, to attack t he textual reliability of the “textus receptus”, from which the King James New Testament was translated . Once they do this, they then promote the new “critical Greek text” as being superior, which forms the basis of most modern New Testam ent versions.

But other scholars note that this view is arrived at by comparing the linguistic style of the New Testament to the preserved writings of the literary men of the era, who imitated the style of the great Attic texts and as a result did not reflect the everyday spoken language, so that that this difference in style could be explained by the New Testament being written, unlike other preserved literary material of the era, in the Koine Greek spoken in every day life, in order to appeal to the common people, a style which has also been found in contemporary non-Jewish texts such as private letters, receipts and petitions discovered in Egypt where the dry air has preserved these documents which, as everyday material not deemed of literary importance, had not been copied by subsequent generations [].

  • The Date of Euthalius. 39
    F. C. Conybeare, The date of Euthalius. 39 The date of Euthalius. By F. C. Conybeare. Oxford. Dr. Bousset in a review of Dr. Hermann von Sodens 'Die Schriften des N. T. in ihrer ltesten erreichbaren Textgestalt' etc. in the Theol. Literaturztg., No. n, 1903 writes thus: Am meisten berraschung bringt in diesem letzten Abschnitt dann die Partie, in der S. die Euthaliusfrage behandelt. Ja, es ist fast niederschmetternd, zu sehen, wie hier trotz emsiger Bem hungen die Forscher bisher alle in die Irre gegangen sind, und wie die Entdeckung einer einzigen Urkunde ganze Reihen von Hypothesen ber den Haufen wirft. Durch einen von W bbermin auf dem Athos gemachten gl cklichen Fund eines Aktenst ckes, das den Titel tr gt Εύθαλίοõ έπιοκόποõ Σουλκή€ ομολογίá περί της ορθοδόξοõ πίοτεως, wird die Person des r tselhaften Euthalius ein- f r alle- mal aus dem vierten oder f nften Jahrhundert, in welchem man sie bisher suchte, verwiesen. Euthalius lebte, wie aus dem sicher echten Schriftst ck mit unzweifelhafter Gewi heit hervorgeht, in der zweiten H lfte des siebenten Jahrhunderts, zun chst als Diacon wahrscheinlich in Syrien (Antiochia), darnach als Bischof in Sulke auf Sardinien. It must be admitted that the discovery of the 'Confession* of Eutha- lius of Sulke raises a problem. No scholar hitherto has suggested a date for the author of the Euthalian prologues later than A.
