1. The Textus Receptus, or Received Text. - Our Authorised English Version of the New Testament was made from a Greek text prepared originally by Erasmus, and revised by Robert Stephens, a Parisian printer, and Theodore Beza, an eminent French Calvinist. Erasmus published his first edition in 1516, and his fifth edition, with which Stephens' is almost identical, in 1537. Theodore Beza's first edition was published in 1565.

In his first edition Erasmus only used such MSS. as he found at Basle, where he was then residing. In his fourth edition he availed himself of what is known as the Complutensian Polyglot (so called from Alcala, or Complutum, in Spain, where it was printed, under the direction of Cardinal Ximenes, in 1514, although not published until 1522). From what MSS. the Complutensian Polyglot was formed is not known. Theodore Beza used also a MS. known as the Codex Bezæ. now in the Cambridge University Library. It contains the four Gospels and Acts in Greek and Latin, and is generally supposed to be of the fifth or sixth century. He also used the Codex Claromontanus, an uncial MS. of the sixth century, containing the Pauline Epistles in Greek and Latin. This MS, is now in the National Library at Paris.
