Revisiting the Corruption of the New Testament is the inaugural
volume of The Text and Canon of the New Testament series, edited by
Daniel B. Wallace. This first volume focuses on issues in textual
criticism; in particular, to what degree did the scribes, who
copied their exemplars by hand, corrupt the autographs? All but one
of the chapters deals specifically with New Testament textual
criticism. The other addresses textual issues related to an early
apocryphal work, the Gospel of Thomas. The book begins with the
full transcription of Wallace's presentation at the Fourth Annual
Greer-Heard Forum, in which he and Bart Ehrman debated over the
reliability of the New Testament manuscripts. Adam Messer looks at
the patristic evidence of "nor the Son" in Matthew 24:36 in a quest
to determine whether the excision of these words was influenced by
orthodox Fathers. Philip Miller wrestles with whether the least
orthodox reading should be a valid principle for determining the
autographic text. Matthew Morgan focuses attention on the only two
Greek manuscripts that have a potentially Sabellian reading in John
1:1c. Timothy Ricchuiti tackles the textual history of the Gospel
of Thomas, examining the Coptic text and the three Greek fragments,
using internal evidence in order to determine the earliest stratum
of Thomas. Brian Wright thoroughly examines the textual reliability
of the passages in which Jesus appears to be called God, concluding
that the textual proof of the designation theos as applied to Jesus
in the NT merely confirms what other grounds have already
established. Revisiting the Corruption of the New Testament will be
a valuable resource for those working in textual criticism, early
Christianity, New Testament apocrypha, and patristics.
