Summary: | In this recent addition to Brill’s Texts and Editions for New Testament Study series, Chris Stevens offers a synchronic analysis of the text of the Pauline corpus that is designed to assess the degree of textual uniformity present in its earliest Greek witnesses (p. 43). His study analyses more than 40 manuscripts, most of which are presumed to have been produced between the second and fifth centuries. In addition to P46, significant attention is given to the majuscules 01 (Sinaiticus), 02 (Alexandrinus), 03 (Vaticanus), 04 (Ephraemi Rescriptus), and the sixth-century 06 (Claromontanus). According to Stevens’ calculations, his analysis evaluates roughly 167,000 total words of text and identifies 3,080 places of textual variation, the majority of which relate to a single word. |
