Buy Metzger and Aland before this one!!!,
By Eric Campell (Rapid City, SD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Encountering New Testament Manuscripts: A Working Introduction to Textual Criticism (Paperback)
If your into textual criticism, definitly get Metzger and Aland's books (both named TEXT OF THE NEW TESTAMENT) before this one.Kind of a strange book, on one hand it give you very basic introductry info on textual criticism, then it dives into some very complex comparison/contrast of greek wording in variant readings of some of the more important witnesses (i.e. p66, p75, Aleph, B, etc.) -- You'll have to be pretty sharp in greek to make any sense of these.... For your money, you're much much better off getting Metzger's and Aland's books. You will learn WAY MORE!!! I would only recommend this book to someone who has first read and enjoyed the books mentioned above. -- but even then, the buyer will be disappointed in the amount and depth of info when compared to Metzger/Aland. Recomendation: Save your money, there are so many other great books to buy ahead of this one. Eric |
