Purpose of the Course THEOLOGY 403 BIBLIOLOGY THEOLOGY 403 BIBLIOLOGY AND DISPENSATIONS Purpose of the Course This course was introduced in order to meet the need for more time and emphasis on two crucial areas of theology. Since the Bible is the basis and heart of the curriculum, it is imp:,rtant to present evidences fbr our belief that it is the inerrant Word of God. That conviction will giveI proper perspective to all of your seminary studies. We also believe that the only way the Bible can be understood plainly and consistently is by understanding the concept of progressive revelation. Only by recognizing the different economies of God can biblical truth be understood correctly. Therefore in the course you will interact with the biblical evidence con­ cerning inspiration and inerrancy; sharpen your understanding of the im­ portance of inerrancy; compare some of the contemp:,rary aberrations·, and their ramifications; measure the importance of the dispensational inter­ pretation of·scripture; compare other theological frameworks; and be able to interpret critical scriptures. Requirements 1. Read the assigned texts (Pache, chapters 1-19, and Ryrie) in the sequence outlined. 2. Quizzes or exams about 30-45 minutes in length approximately every three weeks. 3. Several short reading assignments and papers as indicated in the calendar. 4. A questionnaire on Pache (not exhaustive) is included for your personal use.

  • Biblical Criticism Terms Defined
    SOME BASIC TEXTUAL CRITICISM TERMS DEFINED copyright © 2006/2013 Mr. Gary S. Dykes Despite Epp's observations (in 1974) that TC (Textual Criticism) and interest in it, was on the decline in America, we are seeing an increase in the popularity of the subject. I am of course, referring to the science of Biblical Textual Criticism. In light of the apparent renewed interest amongst the younger scholars, students, and the laity, I find it advantageous to make certain our corporate understanding of some of the basic terms related to the study. Most of the terms below were chosen because they are often misused. For obvious reasons scholars need to precisely and accurately communicate, we need to adhere to a clear standard! Thus I present these basic definitions of a few IMPORTANT terms. The definitions are related specifically to the task of BIBLICAL TC, they are the typical general definitions, a few are enhanced via my personal research. Some other fields of research may modify these definitions. The terms are listed and defined below in this alphabetical order: ARCHETYPE ATRAMENTUM BOOKHANDS and Other Styles CATENAE CLADISTICS CLAREMONT PROFILE METHOD COLOPHON CORONIS CURSIVE DAUGHTER and SISTER DIPLE DOCUMENTARY TEXTS ECLECTIC EKTHESIS (and Eisthesis) EMENDATION/CONJECTURE ENCAUSTUM EXEMPLAR FAMILY GLOSS GOLD INK (and Others) GOLD LEAF HISTORIATED INTERPOLATION KOLLEMATA LEMMA LIGATURE MAAS'S LAW MAQUETTES MISTERY MENOLOGION/SYNAXARION OBELUS QUIRE READING or RENDERING ERRORS RECENSION RECTO and VERSO SCHOLIA SIZING STEMMA TEXT TEXTUAL CRITICISM TEXT-TYPE TRIBE or CLAN UNCIAL Ur-TEXT VERSION WESTERN NON-INTERPOLATIONS ZOOMORPHIC ARCHETYPE Perhaps overused, an "archetype" is the original form of a group of descendants, sometimes seen as the "chief" MS to which other MSS are related or based upon.

  • The Significance of Split Text-Types for the Recovery of the Original Text of the Greek New Testament
    THE SIGNIFICANCE OF SPLIT TEXT-TYPES FOR THE RECOVERY OF THE ORIGINAL TEXT OF THE GREEK NEW TESTAMENT LESLIE McFALL* The significance of splits in text-types has been overlooked in Majority text (hereafter MT) studies. It will be shown in this paper that when any text-type splits, one party to the split will retain the reading of the Majority text (MT), at the place where the other party diverges from it. List 1 was the key research that led to this paper. It gives every instance in the Gospel of Matthew where the unsplit Caesarean text-type is different from the Majority text. The Caesarean text is made up of two families of manuscripts, Family 1 and Family 13. List 1 is a register of 176 differences which gives us the earliest state of the Caesarean text in Matthew before the split occurred.1 It so happens that the Egyptian text fully agrees with the Caesarean text in these 176 differences.2 Given that the Egyptian text-type (as represented by the Aleph-B text) differs from the Byzantine text (as represented by von Soden’s Koine text and Robinson-Pierpont’s text), and that the Caesarean text agrees fully with the Egyptian in List 1, it would appear from this list, taken on its own, that the Caesarean text is a strong supporter of the Egyptian text. However, this would be a misleading conclusion to draw from this one list. Elsewhere, the united Caesarean text agrees with the Byzantine text in opposition to the Egyptian text-type, 1,629 times, in the Gospel of Matthew, showing just how close the Caesarean text was, and is, to the Byzantine text.3 * Leslie McFall resides at 25 Hillfield Road, Comberton, Cambridgeshire, England CB23 7DB.

  • Medieval Manuscripts and Modern Evangelicals: Lessons from the Past, Guidance for the Future
    JETS 60/1 (2017): 5–34 MEDIEVAL MANUSCRIPTS AND MODERN EVANGELICALS: LESSONS FROM THE PAST, GUIDANCE FOR THE FUTURE DANIEL B. WALLACE* Abstract: Paratextual and codicological material in medieval Greek NT manuscripts are rich mines that have been largely neglected by evangelicals. Five such features are touched on in this article: (1) the growing canon consciousness and emergence of the codex and their interrela- tionship; (2) subscriptions (scribal notes at the end of NT books, often reflecting very early tra- ditions) and colophons (blessing, supplication, or mild complaint by a scribe at the end of his codex); (3) the significant but essentially ignored role of female scribes through the centuries; (4) the part that paratextual features in these MSS played in helping scribes to memorize scripture; and (5) the visual priority given to Scripture over tradition in MSS with commen- taries. Key Words: medieval manuscripts, NT canon, birth of the codex, subscriptio, ancient inter- pretation of NT, colophons, female scribes, memory, memorizing Scripture, MSS with com- mentaries, paratextual features, format and interpretation The title of this message is “Medieval Manuscripts and Modern Evangelicals: Lessons from the Past, Guidance for the Future.”1 I am restricting this lecture to biblical manuscripts (MSS) and, more specifically, NT MSS. Limiting my discourse further, I will not be addressing textual variants but instead will be focusing espe- cially on paratextual and codicological features—that is, layout, formatting, and extrabiblical notes. Why this topic? What can evangelicals possibly learn from the handwritten books of the medieval period?2 These MSS are often deemed irrelevant without a hearing.

    anuscripts on my mind News from the No. 25 September 2018 ❧ Editor’s Remarks ❧ Exhibitions ❧ Queries and Musings ❧ Conferences and Symposia ❧ New Publications, etc. ❧ Editor’s Remarks ear colleagues and manuscript lovers: First of all, my warmest thanks to all who sent me so many inter- esting and inspiring pieces of news for this issue. The coming of fall seems to bring with it great appreciation Dand appetite for producing and attending scholarly activities, and there are many to contemplate this season. Secondly, I want to report on the great success of the 45th Annual Saint Louis Conference on Manuscript Studies in its new venue, as part of the annual Symposium on Medieval and Renaissance Studies, held each June at Saint Lou- is University, this year June on 18–20. Despite the scalding heat there was a full complement of attendees, who ad- mired the medieval aura of Père Marquette Gallery, and appreciated the ability to find lunch on campus only a few minutes away, without having to brave the 95o F for more than five minutes. Sessions were uniformly excellent, and Roger Wieck, the plenary speaker, delivered a thoughtful reflection on the rationale behind the organization and presentation of his latest exhibition at the Morgan Library, Now and Forever: The Art of Medieval Time. And thirdly, I am now working on next year's conference, which will take place June 17–19, 2019, and would like to offer some topics for the manuscript community to consider, to inspire your proposals for papers or sessions, besides ideas you may have of your own.
