Samuel Prideaux Tregelles (1813-1875) was a Cornish-born Biblical
scholar who travelled to major libraries all over Europe in order
to study ancient manuscripts. Biblical textual criticism was a
burgeoning new field in the mid-nineteenth century, with leading
scholars including Lachmann and Tischendorf in Germany and
Tregelles' contemporaries Scrivener, Westcott and Hort in England
all working towards the ideal of a more authoritative Greek New
Testament text than had previously been available. This volume
contains the short Volumes 5 (1870) and 6 (1872) of Tregelles'
edition (the Epistles continued, and Revelation), which the author
had originally intended to publish together, along with the
posthumous Volume 7 (1879) containing Prolegomena (compiled by F.
J. A. Hort and A. W. Streane from earlier publications by
Tregelles), and additional collations of parts of Codex Sinaiticus
and Codex Vaticanus. The Greek text is accompanied by Jerome's
Latin Vulgate and a full textual apparatus.
