Excerpt from The Syro-Latin Text of the Gospels
The rough draft of this Essay was drawn up before the publication Of the Sinaitic Palimpsest in October 1894. Since that time the whole has been re-written. One note however that on Luke ii. 5 (see p. 28 f.) - I have ventured to leave exactly as it stood before I saw the Sinaitic text, appending a statement of the evidence derived from that ms., because, as a concrete example, it seems to me to indicate how far results obtained by a critical process are likely to be right. I may be allowed to add that again and again I have found my conclusions confirmed by the Sinaitic text.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the profound influence of ancient Syriac texts on the textual variations found in the Greek and Latin (so-called) Western manuscripts of the Gospels. The author presents evidence to support the theory that assimilation to Old Syriac texts was a predominant factor in the formation of the Syro-Latin text. This in-depth analysis provides a fresh perspective on the complex relationship between different manuscript traditions of the New Testament. The author examines select passages from Matthew, John, and Luke, focusing on readings that differ from the normal text. Through this meticulous study, the author sheds light on the dynamics of textual transmission and the role of ancient Syriac versions in shaping the textual history of the Gospels, offering valuable insights for biblical scholars and anyone interested in the textual criticism of the New Testament.
