Ehrman , "These scribal additions are often found in late medieval manuscripts of the New Testament, but not in the manuscripts of the earlier centuries. A text-type referred to as the " Caesarean text-type " and thought to have included witnesses such as Codex Koridethi and minuscule , can today be described neither as "Caesarean" nor as a text-type as was previously thought. For this reason, the Bohairic translation can be helpful in the reconstruction of the early Greek text of the New Testament.

  • The Latin Vulgate As an “Auxiliary Tool” of Translation
    QL 97 (2016) 141-170 doi: 10.2143/QL.97.3.3197403 © 2016, all rights reserved THE LATIN VULGATE AS AN “AUXILIARY TOOL” OF TRANSLATION Historical Perspectives on Liturgiam Authenticam On March 28, 2001, the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Disci- pline of the Sacraments under the leadership of Cardinal Jorge Medina Estévez released the Fifth Instruction for the implementation of Sacrosanc- tum concilium. Entitled Liturgiam authenticam, “On the Use of Vernacular Languages in the Publication of the Books of the Roman Liturgy,” it pre- scribes the use of the Latin Vulgate as an “auxiliary tool” in the textual production of Scriptural translations for the vernacular liturgical books (no. 24). With regard to the vernacular lectionary in particular, it adds that “[i]f the biblical translation from which the Lectionary is composed exhib- its readings that differ from those set forth in the Latin liturgical text, it should be borne in mind that the Nova Vulgata Editio is the point of refer- ence as regards the delineation of the canonical text. Thus, in the transla- tion of the deuterocanonical books and wherever else there may exist var- ying manuscript traditions, the liturgical translation must be prepared in accordance with the same manuscript tradition that the Nova Vulgata has followed” (no. 37).1 This post-conciliar policy of Biblical translation soon became a matter of controversy. In a letter to the US Conference of Catholic Bishops dated August 13, 2001, the Executive Board of the Catholic Biblical Association of America aired its criticism against the curial document: Our main concerns have to do with the presentation of the Nova Vulgata as the model for Scripture translations in various ways and the provisions that translations conform to it, even to the point of requiring conformity to the Nova Vulgata in the tradition of original language manuscripts used for translation.

  • New Testament Canon Formation 2
    HISTORY OF THE CHRISTIAN TEXT OF THE BIBLE (NEW TESTAMENT) 1. Christianity develops its own canon of scriptures Modern Christians call the Christian scriptures “the New Testament” (NT) in which “testament” = “covenant.” By this, they distinguish the Christian scriptures from the Hebrew Bible or “Old Testament.” To Christians, the Hebrew scriptures are about God’s covenant with Israel via Abraham and Moses, and the Christian scriptures are about God’s covenant with all people via the followers of Christ. Christians read the Old Testament (OT) as a foreshadowing of the NT, picking up on passages such as Jer. 31:33-33 as evidence of God’s intentions: “The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I shall make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah…. I shall put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts.” We believe that Jesus instituted the new covenant at the Last Supper: “Then he took a cup, and after giving thanks he gave it to them saying, ‘Drink from it, all of you; for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins’” (Matt. 26:27-28, NRSV). In its final form, the NT includes 27 canonical books: (1) the 4 Gospels, about the public career and teachings of Christ, composed 40-65 years after Jesus’s death; (2) Acts, a narrative about the birth and growth of Christian communities, composed by the author of the Gospel of Luke; (3) 13 letters to Christian communities and to followers, commonly attributed to Paul, that were written perhaps 20 years before the first Gospels; (4) a miscellany including the epistle to the Hebrews, the catholic (i.e., general) epistles, and Revelation.

  • 04 Wayment.Indd
    Quest for Origins: The Joseph Smith Translation and Latin Version of the New Testament Thomas A. Wayment HE EARLIEST MISSIONARIES OF THE Christian era carried with them the traditions and sayings of Jesus in oral form for several decades—in some Tregions for several centuries—before an official transla- tion was made into the common languages of the Roman empire: Greek, Latin, and Coptic.¹ Jesus had spoken Aramaic, but the oral Aramaic accounts of Jesus’s life and teachings hindered the expansion of the ministry into regions where primarily Greek and Latin were spoken.² In the late first and early second centuries AD, a Latin translation—based on earlier Greek texts—was initiated by eastern Christian missionaries traveling in the West. In the late second or early third century, a Coptic trans- lation of the Greek was also made for converts living in Egypt. As the church continued to expand, other trans- lations were made to meet the needs of the missionaries so that every congregation could have the scriptures in Thomas A. Wayment is an associate professor of ancient scripture at Brigham Young University. 6 A Witness for the Restoration: Essays in Honor of Robert J. Matthews its native tongue. These early translations, based on the Greek, are known today as the Versions. Each of these Versions has the potential to reveal something about the original text of the New Testament insofar as it can be proven that it restores or retains an original reading from the Greek where the Greek text sub- sequently has been altered or changed.³ Although not the most vital sources for establishing the original text of the New Testament, the Versions are an important witness for the recovery of the text from the turn of the first century AD and later.

  • Lexical Variation in the Latin Text of the Jewish Greek Bible
    Lexical Variation in the Latin Text of the Jewish Greek Bible by Simone Rickerby BA (Hon) MA A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) MCD University of Divinity March 2015 Ici, comme toujours, la philologie et l’histoire se donnent la main. D.S. Blondheim Lexical Variation in the Latin Text of the Jewish Greek Bible Abstract This dissertation will examine whether there is lexical variation apparent in the Latin Version of the Jewish Greek Bible, and if so, what this variation can tell us about the history of the text this corpus.1 Within scholarship dedicated to an examination of the textual tradition of the Latin Bible there has been a tacit assumption that an examination of the Latin Jewish Greek Bible may be approached using the same methods and suppositions as those used to elucidate the Latin New Testament text. While influence of the Latin New Testament on the Latin Jewish Greek Bible should be expected, and maybe even all consuming, this should not be the foundation from which we work. This thesis will examine the layers of variation apparent within the textual tradition of the Latin Jewish Greek Bible, whether within a single book or across books, and suggest a context for these variations independent of Latin New Testament textual theories. A detailed analysis of interesting vocabulary will be the basis for this study. Access to the Latin text of the books of the Jewish Greek Bible is facilitated by the Vetus Latina Database and the Beuron editions of the Old Latin Text.
