A renewed interest in textual criticism has created an unfortunate proliferation of myths, mistakes, and misinformation about this technical area of biblical studies. Elijah Hixson and Peter Gurry, along with a team of New Testament textual critics, offer up-to-date, accurate information on the history and current state of the New Testament text that will serve apologists and offer a self-corrective to evangelical excesses.

The Bible is likely the most-edited book in history, yet the task of editing the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts of the Bible is fraught with difficulties. The dearth of Hebrew manuscripts of the Jewish Scriptures and the substantial differences among those witnesses creates difficulties in determining which text ought to be printed as the text of the Jewish Scriptures. For the New Testament, it is not the dearth of manuscripts but the overwhelming number of manuscripts—almost six thousand Greek manuscripts and many more in other languages—that presents challenges for sorting and analyzing such a large, multivariant data set. This volume, representing experts in the editing of the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament, discusses both current achievements and future challenges in creating modern editions of the biblical texts in their original languages. The contributors are Kristin De Troyer, Michael W. Holmes, John S. Kloppenborg, Sarianna Metso, Judith H. Newman, Holger Strutwolf, Eibert Tigchelaar, David Trobisch, Eugene Ulrich, John Van Seters, Klaus Wachtel, and Ryan Wettlaufer.

Learning Greek is one thing. Retaining it and using it in preaching, teaching, and ministry is another. In this volume, two master teachers with nearly forty years of combined teaching experience inspire readers to learn, retain, and use Greek for ministry, setting them on a lifelong journey of reading and loving the Greek New Testament. Designed to accompany a beginning or intermediate Greek grammar, this book offers practical guidance, inspiration, and motivation; presents methods not usually covered in other textbooks; and surveys helpful resources for recovering Greek after a long period of disuse. It also includes devotional thoughts from the Greek New Testament. The book will benefit anyone who is taking (or has taken) a year of New Testament Greek.

"WESTCOTT & HORT: Unveiling the Truth and Legacy of New Testament Textual Restoration" is a comprehensive exploration into the groundbreaking work of biblical scholars Brooke Foss Westcott and Fenton John Anthony Hort. This book meticulously examines their significant contributions to New Testament Textual Criticism, particularly focusing on their defense of the Alexandrian family of manuscripts and their challenges to the Byzantine text, Majority Text, and Textus Receptus. Spanning over twenty-five chapters, the author, a renowned conservative evangelical Christian Bible scholar, delves deep into the historical, linguistic, and theological aspects of New Testament manuscripts. The book begins with detailed biographies of Westcott and Hort, outlining their scholarly journeys, achievements, and the controversies they faced. It then transitions into a thorough analysis of the transmission of the New Testament through time, examining the size of early churches, manuscript production, and the pivotal role of oral reading in early Christian publishing. Key chapters critically analyze different text-types, including the Alexandrian, Byzantine, Western, and Caesarean, offering a comparative perspective that highlights the superiority of the Alexandrian manuscripts. The author presents case studies of significant findings like Papyrus 75 (P75), affirming the Westcott-Hort approach, and discusses methodologies in textual criticism, including the challenges in restoring the New Testament text. "WESTCOTT & HORT: Unveiling the Truth and Legacy of New Testament Textual Restoration" also addresses contemporary debates in biblical scholarship, such as the King James Only Movement and Byzantine Text advocacy. The book concludes with an insightful discussion on the criteria for evaluating manuscript reliability and significance, weaving together historical, linguistic, and theological considerations to assess the trustworthiness of textual witnesses. This book is an essential read for biblical scholars, theologians, and anyone interested in the intricacies of New Testament Textual Criticism. It not only pays homage to the legacy of Westcott and Hort but also provides a rich, evidence-based analysis of New Testament manuscripts, offering readers a deeper understanding of the complexities involved in restoring and interpreting these ancient texts.

In "Discourse Grammar of the Greek New Testament," Steve Runge introduces a function-based approach to language, exploring New Testament Greek grammatical conventions based upon the discourse functions they accomplish. Runge's approach has less to do with the specifics of language and more to do with how humans are wired to process it. The approach is cross-linguistic. Runge looks at how all languages operate before he focuses on Greek. He examines linguistics in general to simplify the analytical process and explain how and why we communicate as we do, leading to a more accurate description of the Greek text. The approach is also function-based--meaning that Runge gives primary attention to describing the tasks accomplished by each discourse feature. This volume does not reinvent previous grammars or supplant previous work on the New Testament. Instead, Runge reviews, clarifies, and provides a unified description of each of the discourse features. That makes it useful for beginning Greek students, pastors, and teachers, as well as for advanced New Testament scholars looking for a volume which synthesizes the varied sub-disciplines of New Testament discourse analysis. With examples taken straight from the "Lexham Discourse Greek New Testament," this volume helps readers discover a great deal about what the text of the New Testament communicates, filling a large gap in New Testament scholarship. Each of the 18 chapters contains: - An introduction and overview for each discourse function - A conventional explanation of that function in easy-to-understand language - A complete discourse explanation - Numerous examples of how that particular discourse function is used in the Greek New Testament - A section of application - Dozens of examples, taken straight from the Lexham Discourse Greek New Testament - Careful research, with citation to both Greek grammars and linguistic literature - Suggested reading list for continued learning and additional research
