Enjoy this entirely new edition of the Greek-language New Testament, the Editio Critica Maior, from The Institute for New Testament Textual Research in Münster. This 3-volume collection (across 4 books) documents the history of the Greek text through the first millennium based on Greek manuscripts, old translations, and New Testament citations in ancient Christian literature that are of significance to the history of transmission.
This fantastic edition provides information for answering key questions:
- How does a text change over the course of history, and why?
- How was a text received in the early Christian era?
The original biblical text has also been reconstructed once more in connection with the latest methods and techniques, informing the extensive modification and updates to these new editions of the Greek New Testament.
In this collection, dig into the following at your fingertips:
- The first volume (Volume VI/1) contains the Greek text including a clearly structured, extensive text-critical apparatus.
- The second volume (Volume VI/2) contains additional materials that relieve the burden on the text-critical apparatus.
- The third volume (Volume VI/3.1) contains further studies of the text: a commentary on selected variants as well as studies of early translations and the patristic tradition.
- The fourth volume (Volume VI/3.2) contains studies on punctuation and text structure, as there is a particular focus on these aspects in the volume on Revelation.
These brand new editions will enhance your study through rich commentaries; historical and cultural context; word, structural, and punctuation studies; and so much more.
