I do not know why that Leipzig examination did not go ahead. It may be the case that your speculation is not the reason. Or do you have evidence for your speculation that you stated as if it were fact? Instead, you seem to be pilling up conspiracy upon conspiracy. That the four libraries largely agr...

To repeat: "I am not opposed to testing. It may be fair to say that I have encouraged testing, for example, in my "Radiocarbon Dating the Dead Sea Scrolls," Biblical Archaeologist 54 (Sept. 1991) 172."

That project by all four libraries: "On 9 March 2005, a Partnership Agreement was signed between the four institutions listed above for the conservation, photography, transcription, and publication of all surviving pages and fragments of the Codex Sinaiticus. ..." 2005! That website has be...

Google searches--though often handy--may not be the best measure. Their--changing--algorithms may bias to stuff the user has ...
