The publication in 1881 of The New Testament in the Original Greek,
by the Cambridge scholars Brooke Foss Westcott (1825 1901) and
Fenton John Anthony Hort (1828 1892), marked the culmination of
twenty-eight years of work and an innovation in the theory and
methods of New Testament textual criticism. This first of two
volumes contains a detailed discussion of the theories and methods
behind the reconstructed text, sets out the editors' theory of
text-types, and justifies their choice to break with the dominant
use of the Textus Receptus. It argues for the Neutral Text,
represented by the uncials Codex Vaticanus and Codex Sinaiticus, as
being the earliest and least corrupt form. Westcott and Hort's
claim to reconstruct the 'original text' may seem extravagant today
but according to Bruce Metzger theirs was the 'most noteworthy
critical edition of the Greek Testament ever produced by British
scholarship'.
