Inhaltsangabe

Vol. II of A Plain Introduction to the Criticism of the New Testament by Frederick Henry Ambrose Scrivener continues the rigorous examination of New Testament textual criticism, building upon the foundational principles laid out in the first volume. In this second volume, Scrivener delves deeper into the analysis of specific manuscripts, versions, and textual variants, providing more detailed examples of how textual criticism is applied to reconstruct the most authentic version of the New Testament. Scrivener presents a thorough investigation of major Greek manuscripts such as Codex Sinaiticus, Codex Vaticanus, and Codex Alexandrinus, offering insights into their origins, textual characteristics, and the significant variations found within them. He also discusses the use of early translations (such as the Latin, Syriac, and Coptic versions) in determining the textual history of the New Testament, comparing their readings with the Greek text to identify potential errors or alterations introduced by scribes. Scrivener pays close attention to the role of early church fathers and patristic writings in corroborating or contesting manuscript readings, as these figures often quoted New Testament passages extensively in their works.
