Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book re-evaluates the textual criticism of the New Testament. The author, himself well-regarded as a theologian, dissects criticisms of the 'Received Text' of the New Testament, which was put forward by Westcott and Hort in 1881. The author believes that while Westcott and Hort's approach was methodologically sound in many respects, they were overconfident in their methodology, and their conclusions are not necessarily correct. The book argues that the Received Text is not necessarily inferior to the original autographs of the gospels, and that Westcott and Hort's rejection of it may have roots in their theological presuppositions more than in the evidence they present. It questions the idea that the oldest manuscripts necessarily represent the original autographs of the New Testament. The book suggests there is value in considering manuscript evidence from every period.
