Inhaltsangabe

This book is a significant study of textual variants in New Testament manuscripts, focusing on Codex Evan. 604 acquired by the British Museum in 1882, building on the work of Dean Burgon and others. Containing unique readings, it is considered one of the most famous codices in existence and presents an important addition to the critical apparatus of New Testament textual study. An especially valuable contribution is the list of evidence on significant variations from the Textus Receptus. The author has compiled lists of unique readings and evidence on rarer readings from several important but previously unexamined cursives which are cited regularly in critical editions but not fully collated. The author's aim is to present all the available material to aid scholars in forming their own conclusions about the character and value of the manuscripts and the readings contained within them. The book is a worthwhile resource for those interested in textual criticism and the history of the New Testament.

It is a great pity that 2 and (i) are defective in the Gospels of ss. Luke and John, as their readings would doubtless have proved most instructive and interesting.

Excerpt from A Full Account and Collation of the Greek Cursive Codex Evangelium 604: With Two Facsimiles; Egerton 2610 in the British Museum

The way is not clear yet, and the sun has not yet risen, but I believe those words to-day much more than I did then. We are in a period of calm at present. The champions of opposing schools are some dead, some past all work and almost all the rest far past the meridian of life. A little longer, and with more work and the publication of that which already exists, it will surprise me if we do not rapidly near the sun's rising above referred to. And as the Truth must ever triumph, soon or late, in every exact science, so shall it be in this department of Biblical learning, even though it be by means of instruments so poor, so inconsistent, so weak as we are.
