Wow !
About time :)

I'm sure many of us have dreamed of the day when the VSA is accessible online.
Probably many years until it's done but - if it works.

And 53 miles of books !
I barely have 12 m.

And then the robots will create a messiah for themselves and their will be an apocalypse for all. Then the robots break into sects
The metric to judge if one is a good exegete: the way he/she deals with Barabbas.

Who disagrees with me on this precise point is by definition an idiot.

And the Vatican archives are deep,
And books to read before I sleep,
And books to read before I sleep.

So you go to the end of the 53 miles, go through the secret door, get to the vault, get the combination, open the vault and someone sez, "Yeah, we had the original Mark held here but it was destroyed about 800 years ago. Sorry...Would you like to buy an 8 X 10 glossy photo of our current Marxist Pope instead?"

Wake me up when the Original Mark gets brought out for inspection.

Screw original Mark. Bring out original Paul, or at least the letters that Marcion had, and his Gospel.

And Papias. And Justus of Tiberias. And the histories of Claudius.

And the missing sections of Tacitus.
