Re: Who axed Acts 8:37?
Here is a new reference for Acts 8:37 in the early Bibles, a solid allusion. Pure Bible Forum Acts of Philip - For I also firmly believe in the Lord Jesus Christ with all my heart, and with all my soul http://www.purebibleforum.com/showthread.php?866-Acts-8-37-all-the-ECW-references&p=2215#post2...

the textual community was played
You do not seem to understand one very basic point. If Simonides fudged or lied about some details, and said what was convenient, that does not change the basic fact that he was part of the creation of the manuscript. Tischendorf rather brazenly lied about his 1844 theft, as an example, including th...

the timing of the colouring of Sinaiticus to give the appearance of age
Let's see if I can find the post where I answered this question before. However, you can help with the exact quotes that you feel create a contradiction, and then I will respond. You could even put it on its own thread (or use one of the previous Sinaiticus threads.) The colouring of the Sinaiticus ...

Re: An Introduction to David Trobisch
The enthusiasm idea is actually floated by the Sinaiticus defenders as the reason the monks at Sinai reconstituted the whole ms. after the 86 pages were taken by Tischendorf in 1844. Even propossing a rebinding. They rather absurd idea was fabricated to reconcile the 1844 theft of supposedly loose s...

David Trobisch and the consideration of Sinaticus as 1800s
Also David Trobisch had not really considered any possibility of Sinaiticus being a modern production, and had basically passed on that question, when asked by Stephan. This is a complete misrepresentation. We were talking about the MS and he simply noted that the date given by most scholars is the...

the Philippian hymn ??
And I wonder if Bill Brown wants to offer anything of substance to the hymn discussion. What Gordon Fee wrote was quite sensible, and worth quoting. And Ben noted his previous comment along t he same line. The fact that a Pauline text has a section with "deliberate spacing and rhythm" by n...

hymn theory
My concern in this brief paper is a modest one: primarily I want to call into question the whole matter of the passage as a hymn, which, despite most scholarship to the contrary, it almost certainly is not ...

Re: Can anyone help me in Luke 23,34?
LaParola does a good job. Years back I used to send him corrections, and he would check them and if he felt sound, make the correction. He utilizes a few well-know apparatuses and gives a composite. However, no modern apparatus is very good on the early church writers. My recent study on Acts 8:37 c...

Re: Who axed Acts 8:37?
Omitting a phrase or verse from a textline is easy. Look at 1 John 2:23b as an example. 1 John 2:23 (AV) Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. One of the (many) key weaknesses of textual criticism today is assuming that the...
