The understanding of Simonides is much greater in Europe especially from German down to the Balkans, also Italy. The 2014 Conference in Vienna was an interesting event. I am trying to see if there is documentation of his Russian period after Simonides was quieted down on Sinaiticus. Some of the mate...

Thanks!

Textual variants in Sinaiticus is an interesting topic.

However, it has zero to do with the topic of noting relationships between two manuscripts that can be seen by the scribal phenomenon of homoeoteleuton.

And the next attachment is the layman's guide. It is three pages as an .rtf . (Do you need .doc or .odt ? Just let me know.)

Three pages.

First 2 pages, same as above - some trimming of pic to allow side-by-side.

Third page. My thoughts shared.

Thanks!

Hi BCHF, Now for a little treat, a change of pace, for our iron sharpeneth friends. We have seen that BCHF can be considered the best open discussion forum on Codex Sinaiticus authenticity on the net. Good thinkers, fine counterpoint. Here is the beginning of a little research project. We are moving...

I he may have just as likely used that story, probably wholly made up, to justify the theft because the shame he felt, and I'm sure he felt some, was not enough to overcome the fame that he knew would come his way from the discovery of such a rare manuscript. You may not realize that he did not mak...

What is there to discuss? Just from the color bars you can see that the British Library images would look more yellow than in reality, and the Leipzig images would look whiter than in reality. Those color bars are there to tell you exactly this. That has virtually nothing to do with the huuuggee Le...

The Uspensky account shows that the whole manuscript was together in those years. Unlikely, when sheets from Sinaiticus were used for binding other books. The whole manuscript above means the whole manuscript we have today. Clearly we do not know if the manuscript lost pages before 1844. And if the...

btw a possible argument against Steven's theory could be the following ... 2009 - Nikolas Sarris discovers one more fragment in a book binding at St Catherine's Monastery[/color] And I agree that this is a possible argument. However, it is really clear, with major elements of Hermas (full of contro...

By the way, I have now finally read the whole story as presented on the page of A.V.Zahkharova (http://www.nlr.ru/eng/exib/CodexSinaiticus/zah/index.html). A very limited and sketchy discussion, of very little value, especially about the critical period leading up to the 1860s. (The 1860s maneuveri...

.In our discussion about the colour may be a further point. It is assumed that the sheets are digitalized under the same light conditions. But it seems to me that there are a few differences. On the left side or right side of every picture of a sheet is a colour scale. The comparison of these scale...
