The six biblical manuscripts that reside in the Freer Gallery of
Art in Washington DC are historically significant artifacts for
tracing the early history of the transmission of the writings that
make up the New Testament and the Septuagint. The manuscripts, all
purchased in Egypt at the beginning of the twentieth century by
Charles Freer, date to the third through fifth centuries and
include codices of the four Gospels, Deuteronomy and Joshua, the
Psalms, and the Pauline Epistles, as well as a Coptic codex of the
Psalms and a papyrus codex of the Minor Prophets, which, until the
discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, was the earliest Greek
manuscript of the Minor Prophets known. The ten essays in this
volume are a notable collection of fresh scholarship with long-term
value for the study of what is a small but highly valuable treasure
trove of biblical manuscripts. The contributors are Malcolm Choat,
Kent D. Clarke, Kristin De Troyer, Timothy J. Finney, Dennis Haugh,
Larry W. Hurtado, J. Bruce Prior, Jean-Francois Racine, James R.
Royse, Ulrich Schmid, and Thomas A. Wayment. Paperback edition is
available from the Society of Biblical Literature
