What Difference Does It Make?1 the Greek Text We Accept Makes a Big Difference
WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?1 THE GREEK TEXT WE ACCEPT MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE WILBUR N. PICKERING Missionary Valparaiso De Goias, GO, Brazil I. INTRODUCTION It has been commonly argued, for at least 260 years,2 that no doctrine will be affected no matter what Greek text one may use. In my own experience, for over fifty years, when I have raised the question of what is the correct Greek text of the NT, regardless of the audience, the usual response has been: “What difference does it make?” The purpose of this article is to answer that question, at least in part. The eclectic Greek text presently in vogue, N-A26/UBS3 [here- after NU] represents the type of text upon which most modern versions are based.3 The KJV and NKJV follow a rather dif- ferent type of text, a close cousin of the Majority Text.4 The 1 This article is a revision (considerable) of ‘Appendix G’ in my book, The Identity of the New Testament Text II, Eugene, Oregon: Wipf and Stock Publishers, 3rd ed., 2003. (In the online version it is Appendix H.) 2 John Bengel, a textual critic who died in 1752, has been credited with being the first one to advance this argument. 3 Novum Testamentum Graece, Stuttgart: Deutsche Bibelstiftung, 26th ed., 1979. The Greek New Testament, New York: United Bible Societies, 3rd ed., 1975. The text of both these editions is virtually identical, having been elaborated by the same five editors: Kurt Aland, Matthew Black, Carlo Martini, Bruce Metzger and Allen Wikgren. -

Greg Goswell, “Early Readers of the Gospels: the KEPHALAIA and TITLOI of Codex Alexandrinus”
[JGRChJ 6 (2009) 134-74] EARLY READERS OF THE GOSPELS: THE KEPHALAIA AND TITLOI OF CODEX ALEXANDRINUS Greg Goswell Presbyterian Theological College, Melbourne, Australia For the New Testament, the oldest system of capitulation (division into chapters) known to us is that preserved in Codex Vaticanus (B 03) of the fourth century.1 I will use the notation V1, V2 etc. to refer to chapters of Vaticanus. Even a cursory examination of Vaticanus is enough to reveal that the divisions represent an evaluation of what are the sense units of the biblical passages. Each successive chapter in the Gospels is numbered using Greek letters written in red ink to the left of the columns. Capitulation is further indicated by a space of (usually) two letters at the close of the preceding chapter, a short horizontal line (paragraphos) above the first letter of the first whole line of the new chapter marking the close of the preceding paragraph, and sometimes by a letter protruding into the left margin (ekthesis).2 The system of 1. H.K. McArthur, ‘The Earliest Divisions of the Gospels’, in Studia Evangelica, III. 2 (ed. F.L. Cross; Texte und Untersuchungen, 88; Berlin: Akademie Verlag, 1964), pp. 266-72. After rejecting three other possible explanations, McAr- thur suggests that the divisions were used for citation purposes, especially in aca- demic circles. For alternate systems of chapter division in Greek versions of the Old Testament, see Robert Devreesse, Introduction à l’étude des manuscrits grecs (Paris: Klincksieck, 1954), pp. 139-41. The major divisions in Vaticanus are called chapters, while those in Alexandrinus, which are the basis of the standard divisions used in Nestle-Aland (Novum Testamentum Graece [27th Edition] = NTG27) are called kephalaia. -
Codex Bezae (D05) in Light of P.Oxy. 4968 (127): a Reassessment of “Anti-Judaic Tendencies” in Acts 10–17

An* 1. Introduction Eldon Jay Epp’s classic monograph, The Theological Tendency of Codex Bezae Cantabrigiensis in the Acts, marked a watershed moment in contemporary text-critical scholarship. Epp attempted to chart a coherent picture of the theological tendencies in Codex Bezae (D05) through a systematic treatment of the D-variants.1) He argues that underpinning the distinctive variants of the D-text (or the “Western” text)2) are the scribal tendencies of a Gentile Christian perspective that portray the Jews, and their leaders, as responsible for the death of Jesus, and hostile toward His apostles. Epp’s study has generated both positive and negative reactions in the field of New Testament textual criticism.3) * Ph.D. in Old Testament at Princeton Theological Seminary, USA.

T.C. Skeat on the Dating and Origin of Codex Vaticanus
CHAPTER FIVE T.C. SKEAT ON THE DATING AND ORIGIN OF CODEX VATICANUS Biblical scholars are used to working with the text of Codex Sinaiticus [281] and Codex Vaticanus. We sometimes need to remind ourselves just how unique these manuscripts are. Both are codices on parchment that originally included the whole of the Bible. Even complete copies of the New Testament are rare: my count is only sixty-one manuscripts out of 5,000 New Testament manuscripts and not all those were originally composed as complete manuscripts; in some cases one of the sections was added by a different and later hand. Then the age of these manuscripts is remarkable—they are our oldest Bibles in Greek. (Their dates will be considered shortly.) The fact that they contain not only the New Testament but the com- plete Bible in Greek makes these, together with Codex Alexandrinus and Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus exceptional. Even Latin pandects are rare. The fifty Bibles ordered by Constantine (about which more below) must therefore have been a very high proportion of all the complete Bibles written during the fourth century or, indeed, ever written. The commonly agreed dates for Codex Vaticanus and Codex Sinaiticus are fourth century; Alexandrinus and Ephraemi Rescriptus are from the fifth century. Cavallo1 suggested dates of 350 for Codex Vaticanus and 360 for Codex Sinaiticus—those suggestions by a famed expert ought to be weighed carefully. Kenyon2 gives the date as “early fourth century” for both. We ought to remind ourselves what was happening in the Christian world at that time. There was a growing consensus about the content of the Christian [282] scriptures—the finally agreed canon was being shaped. -
The 1909 Facsimile Edition of Codex Boernerianus
A Brief Introduction to This Digital Reproduction of Codex Boernerianus presented by: Mr. Gary S. Dykes 2007 [note: the images in this PDF file are compressed via the PDF process, and display not the original CD quality] image 090 - coded For years I desired a GOOD copy of codex 012. All I possessed was a microfiche copy, and reading many of the Latin portions in that microfiche was frustrating. 35mm film copies of the manuscript leave much to be desired, as they were poor reproductions of the facsimile edition. For years I tried to acquire a better copy. Whenever I saw a copy of the 1909 facsimile edition offered for sale, I attempted to purchase it (them) but was always too late (the sales occurred in Europe). Finally, in 2007, I found an excellent copy of the 1909 edition. One which was in pristine condition; no marks, no tears, no missing pages, cover original and fully intact! Not only this, but the printing was of excellent quality. Truly a copy worthy of preservation for all students, for now and future generations. Though I created this digital copy for my own personal use and work on I Corinthians, I realized that others could certainly use a copy. This particular facsimile edition had lain in a library (a very non- Christian institution); since 1910, the volume was checked out only once. It lay unused. Thus it remained in fine condition. Today it is now being shared with all, via the coöperation of the CSNTM website! As concerns the published volume: it was a very fine production, the color reproduction reflects some of the best I have ever seen for a facsimile edition. -

The Order of the Gospels in the Parent of Codex Bezae. 339
J. Chapman, The order of the Gospels in the parent of Codex Bezae. 339 The order of the Gospels in the parent of Codex Bezae. By Dom J. Chapman, O. S. B. Erdington Abbey, Birmingham. Certain phenomena in Codex Bezae show that the Gospels are not given in the order of its archetype. They may be exhibited in the form of five arguments. It is to be remembered that the Gospels appear in the MS in the usual old Latin order: Mt Jo Lc MC. i. The punctuation of the MS consists "chiefly of a blank space between the words, or of a middle, sonietimes of an upper, very seldom of a lower single point, usually placed in the middle of a verse or crixoc, and found (äs in most other copies) much more thickly in some parts than in others: such a point is often set in the middle of a line, in passages whefe it is hard to see its use." So far Scrivener, p. xviii. Dr. Rendel Harris, on the other hand, has shown that the points, and perhaps the spaces, are traces of the original colometry of the arche- type, thus marked by the scribe, when he did not preserve the lines of his copy. Dr. Harris has pointed out their similarity to the points in the Curetonian Syriac and in the old Latin MS k (Study of Cod. Bezae, eh. xxiii; but contrast Burkitt, Evang. Da-Mepk. ii, p. 14). An examination of the points shows that they are very numerous in Matthew and in the early part of John.
