Publisher's Synopsis
The Editio Critica Maior provides the full range of resources necessary for scholarly research in establishing the text and reconstructing the history of the New Testament text during its first thousand years.
Resources include:
- all the variants found in the selected Greek manuscripts and in citations by the Greek Fathers,
- the evidence of the three most important early versions (Latin, Coptic, and Syriac) where they witness to variants in the Greek text,
- the evidence of other versions (Armenian, Georgian, Old Church Slavonic, and Ethiopic) where they witness to variants in the Greek text and to the extent they are available in editions.
The Editio Critica Maior of Revelation is available in four volumes. This third volume (Volume VI/3.1), Studies on the Text, contains a section called "Text-Critical Commentary" that discusses those passages where difficulties are found in the textual tradition. Additional studies in this volume address various aspects of the manuscript and linguistic traditions associated with Revelation.
