I'm writing a brief article on Codex Sinaiticus, and I want to verify the 
information that I have concerning the textual affinities of Codex 
Sinaiticus.  In the OT, the sources I have looked at say that it is 
basically Old Greek (where that has been determined), generally inferior 
to B, but sometimes superior (e.g., in 1 Chron, Esdras B, & the prophets).

In the NT, Sinaiticus is generally counted among the Alexandrian witnesses.
However, Fee argues that it is Western in John 1-8.  Are there any other 
caveats?

One obvious additional point that should be made is that the corrector(s) of Sinaiticus must be mentioned, since the text type changes from S* to S  
as corrected. For further information, see volumes in the Goettingen LXX
which attest to Sinaiticus.>

I would add that, in the gospels, Aleph, while Alexandrian, aligns more
with Z and the later minuscules than with p75-B-T-L-sa.

In Paul, Aleph is Alexandrian, standing with A C 33, but does *not*
belong with p46-B-sa (Zuntz's proto-Aleandrian group) or with 1739.

In the Catholics, it is, again, Alexandrian, but stands apart from
p72-B and also from the bulk of later witnesses (A 33 81 436 etc.).
(Note that C is *not* Alexandrian in the Catholics; it goes with 1241
and family 1739.)

In the Apocalypse, Aleph goes with p47 against the purer Alexandrian
text of A C vg etc.

Dear List,

I apology if I over step the boundaries of this list. I just have a 
quick question, or what I may consider quick.  I have started in a 
Master's program and for my first semester I am taking Romans.  I have 
spoken with my professor and he has allowed me the opportunity of 
translating chapters 5-8, but
it must be a more critical translation than I have done before.  In the 
past I have dealt mainly with what part of speech, what gender, person, 
case....Then a rough translation moving to a smooth translation.

This time I need to deal with any textual issues that might be found in 
these verses, so I would appreciate any guidance that might be offered 
in a direction to start with.  I am writing this message right after 
class and before I head for home to start reading.  So, I have not 
checked the Greek text as of yet.  I have done exegetical papers 
throughout my under-grad. studies, but like I said before, I need to 
deal more in-depth with the text itself.

Then also, the library where I am enrolled offers inter-library loans 
because their collection is limited in this field.  So, I need to make 
sure I select good quality text (making things less expensive on me).

Wayne,

You may wish to consult J.D. G. Dunn's commentary on Romans published by
"Word" publishers.  It is two volumes, but I think all of the material you
want is in vol 1.

He deals quite thoroughly with the significant variants.
Then I would consult Ulrich Wilckens "Der Brief an die Romer"

And of course you should look at Bruce Metzgers' "Textual Commentary on the
Greek New Testament".

Best wishes on your work.

Jim West

I would see it as Alexandrian with a good deal of Western mixture
throughout the gospels, though in Jn.1-8 this mixture is stronger. I would
not call the Jn.1-8 section as predominately Western, however.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions......I have looked at the texts that
some of you have recommended and they are EXTREMELY helpful.......

Does anyone have any other suggestions of texts/articles that have already
ANALYZED the treatment of David in both the books of Samuel and Chronicles OR
an analysis of the comparisons and differences between the two books in
general? The books that I have been referred to do not contain any
analysis.....

Any ideas would be very helpful.

You may want to look at Gerhard von Rad's Theology of the Old Testament, as
he discusses the Chronicler and the Deuteronomist; as well as Julius
Wellhausen's
work on the History of Israel.  Both of these do what you are looking for.

Help!  A few weeks ago, a message was sent over this network about the availability of a volume that 
contained the BHS Heb OT and the NA27 Greek NT.  I believe it was mentioned that it was used at Dallas 
Theol Seminary.

I lost my email files and had to restore from a back up over a month old and cannot find the message.  
If anyone knows about the Heb/Grk OT/NT volume, and how to get it, please respond.

It's published by American Bible Society.  As I recall, Sparks has at 
least one Christian bookstore; if not there are a couple in Reno.  
Any of them should be able to order it from ABS for you.

I suggest you order and get it while you can at a low price, since our
bookstore had ordered it for student use and found that the costs had
jumped dramatically after 1 August 96, placing its cost well out of the
reach of most students.  We expect to return almost all copies to ABS
because of that price hike.

I just called CBD and it is now $89.95. I was told that their Fall/Winter
Academic Catalog (supposedly with guaranteed prices thru 1/31/95) was 
being
printed when they got news of the ABS price hikes. I was also told that 
the
prices for the separate BHS and NA27 have increased substantially. 
Ironically,
the ABS 1996-1997 Catalog of Scripture Resources has an oval on the cover
declaring "New Lower Prices!"

One month ago TC published a review by Dave Washburn of Raija Sollamo's
book _Repetition of the Possessive Pronouns in the Septuagint_.  A week or
two later, Prof. Sollamo sent a message to the list noting her
appreciation for the review, but pointing out a misunderstanding of one of
her conclusions.  In a subsequent message to the list, Dave Washburn
concurred that he had misstated Sollamo's point in his review.  TC has now
published Sollamo's response to the review, and links from the response to
the review and vice versa have been inserted.  See the table of contents
for volume 1 of TC for Sollamo's comments. 

The ability to publish a correction to a TC article--and in only one
month's time!--highlights an advantage that electronic publishing has over
traditional paper publishing.  In print, a correction would have taken
several months (at least) to appear, and the link would only have been one
way: from the reponse to the original article.  There is no way to go back
and change the original printed article to refer to the response. 
However, in an electronic environment this is not a problem.  The fact
that the original review was _published_ precludes us from going back and
changing the text in question, since TC readers have to be able to assume
that the texts they cite in other articles are permanent, but there is no
problem with adding a link to the response, since this link is clearly not
a part of the article per se.  

Our publishing of this response should not be seen as indicative of a
weakness in electronic journals (how many responses to articles have
appeared in print journals, and how many more really _should_ have
appeared?) but rather as an example of the flexibility of online journals. 
Furthermore, I want to state my appreciation for Dave Washburn and all of
our other volunteer book reviewers (many are currently working on reviews)
for their hard work and for Leonard Greenspoon, our book review editor.  
Their efforts are making TC a valuable addition to the scholarly 
conversation about biblical textual criticism.

Dear TC List:

Can someone give me a quick lesson on the text of the Latin Psalter? Is the
edition published by Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft (my copy is the third 1985
edition) the standard hand edition of the Vulgate Psalter? Is a critical
edition available? Do critical editions exist for any of Jerome's versions?

Thanks in advance for any light list members can shed on this issue.

Dave Aiken asked about editions of  the Latin Psalter.

The Weber edition (German Bible Society/ABS distributor) of the Vulgate is a
hand- or minor- edition of the Vulgate.  For the Psalter, of course, it includes
both the Gallican and iuxta Hebraeos versions of Jerome.  The full critical
editon of the Vulgate is _Biblia Sacra iuxta Latinam Vulgatam Versionem_, 17
volumes,  (Rome: Libreria Editrice Vaticana, 1926 - 1987), known as the San
Girolamo edition.

You may also want to keep in mind that there is a _Nova Vulgata_, which is a
"modern" revision of the Vulgate, done under the asupices of the Vatican, and
enjoying official liturgical status.  The Vatican press publishes the full
Bible; the German Bible Society published the NT only (available from ABS).

Sorry to lurk for so long before posting, but I'd hate for anyone to get
this nasty computer virus...
I just received the following from a u.s. military source:

Forwarded message:

1. There is a computer virus that is being sent across the Internet. If
you receive an email message with the subject line "Good  Times", DO NOT
read  the message, DELETE it immediately.  Please read the messages
below.

Some miscreant is sending  email under the title "Good Times"
nationwide, if you get anything like this, DON'T DOWN LOAD THE FILE! It
has a virus that rewrites your hard drive, obliterating anything on it.
Please be careful and forward this mail to anyone you care about.

The FCC released a warning last Wednesday concerning a matter of
major importance to any regular user  of the Internet. Apparently a new
computer virus has been engineered by a user of AMERICA ON LINE that
is unparalleled in its destructive capability. Other more well-known
viruses such as "Stoned", "Airwolf" and "Michaelangelo" pale in
comparison to the prospects of this newest creation by a warped
mentality. What makes this virus so terrifying, said the FCC, is the
fact that no program needs to be exchanged for a new computer to be
infected. It can be spread through the existing email systems of the
Internet.

Once a Computer is infected, one of  several things can  happen. If
the computer contains a hard drive, that  will most likely be
destroyed. If the program is not stopped, the computer's processor will
be placed in an nth-complexity infinite binary loop -which can severely
damage the processor  if left running that way too long.

Unfortunately, most novice computer users will not realize what is
happening until it is far too late. Luckily, there is one sure means
of detecting what is now known as the "Good Times" virus. It always
travels to new computers the same way in a text email message with the 
subject line reading "Good Times". Avoiding infection is easy once the
file has been received simply by NOT READING IT! The act of loading the
file into the mail server's ASCII buffer causes the "Good Times"
mainline program to initialize and execute.

The program is highly intelligent- it will  send copies of itself
to everyone whose email address is contained in a receive-mail file or
a sent-mail file, if it can find one. It will then proceed to trash
the computer it is running on.

The bottom line is:  - if you receive a file with the subject line
"Good  Times", delete it  immediately! Do not read it"  Rest assured
that whoever' name was on the  "From" line was surely struck by the
virus. Warn your  friends and  local system users of this newest threat
to the Internet! It could save them a lot of time and money.

Could you pass this along to your global mailing list as well?

2. Subject:  New and Dangerous Virus For your information ...

DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANY FILE NAMED PKZIP300 REGARDLESS OF THE EXTENSION

We work closely with the military and received this message from a
Washington DC this morning.

A NEW Trojan Horse Virus has emerged on the internet with the name
PKZIP300.ZIP, so named as to give the impression that this file is
a new  version of the PKZIP software used to "ZIP" (compress) files.

DO NOT DOWNLOAD this file under any circumstances!!! If you install
or expand this file, the virus WILL wipe your hard disk clean and
affect modems at 14.4 and higher. This is an extremely destructive virus
and there is NOT  yet a way of cleaning up this one.

REPEAT: DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANY FILE NAMED PKZIP300 REGARDLESS
OF THE  EXTENSION.

I can only second Jimmy's plea re the advantages of electronic publishing. It
 simply advances critical discussion, the essence of scientific work, and 
in a remarkable short period of time for that matter!! 

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!

I would be most pleased if someone could answer the following questions
concerning Gen 49:10- (shiloh)

1- is it possible that the "qere" is a masoretic effort to ameliorate the
christian interpretation of this verse as a messianic text?

2- are there any DSS mss which have a variant here? (I am unable to locate any).

Thanks for your help.

As far as I have found it isn't preserved in the DSS corpus.

It's possible that the qere reading draws attention away from the
interpretation of "Shiloh" as an appellation, but the kethib could also be
read "which is his," or something similar.  Certainly Christianity read
this passage as messianic, but so did the targums.  Targum Onkelos reads
"until the time when the messiah comes to whom the kingdom belongs," and
Targum Neofiti reads similarly (but "king messiah").  Both the Peshitta
and LXX interpret rather than transcribe "Shiloh," with the LXX rendering
being somewhat more mysterious: "the things which are reserved," or some
such.  The earliest interpretation of this passage, which may also be 
messianic, may be Ezek 21:31 (21:27 Eng): "Ruin, ruin, ruin I will bring 
such as never was, until he comes whose right it is [(D-B) )$R-LW HM$P+, 
cf. (D KY-YB) $YLH in Gen], and I will give it (to him)."  Thus, the 
messianic interpretation seems to predate Christianity, and even the qere 
reading can be interpreted to lean in that direction.

The applicable phrase in the LXX (ews an elthe ta apokeimena autw) can be
translated as "until the things which are stored up for him will come". The 
messianic content of this passage in the LXX is also to be deduced from the 
rest of the passage (kai autos prosdokia ethnwn) "and he will be the 
exectation of nations". The Old Greek seems to suggest that it is a 
pre-Christian interpretation. Interesting is the Peshitta which to me seems 
to follow a combination of LXX and the Targumim (cf. Cook in the Peshitta 
Symposium volume of 1988 (eds. Dirksen & Mulder, p. 163)). The problematic
 noun shilo is brought into connection with the relative particle shlw.
 However, the interpretation of sk) in wlh nskwn (mm) (nations will expect
 him), is probably based on the LXX.

Brothers on this board, please be advised that this is not a hoax.  I
have
many friends in the computer field, and for the last year, the entire
Internet field has said that it is impossible for an e-mail to carry a
virus.  I was learned by many about this, and too agreeded with this
because
of the way a virus is executed.  A friend of mine just got the virus via
e-mail, and it destroyed his harddrive.  So be advised that this is a
REAL virus sent by e-mail.  Remember, back up be for you say, "I knew
I should have..."  GOD bless bro's,

All right, let's get this right before a panic starts. Please note
*all* the following points.

1. "Good Times" is a hoax. It is only a hoax. If it had been a real
   virus, somebody would have created a cure for it by now. So if
   somebody tells you about it, ignore it.

2. You cannot get a virus by sending or reading e-mail. Period.
   It's not possible.

HOWEVER

3. There are a lot of viruses out there that are harmful.

4. You can get a virus from a file. If someone attaches a document to
   a mail message, that file could contain a virus, and you *could*
   catch that virus.

ON THE OTHER HAND

5. All viruses are computer, operating system, or software specific.
   A PC cannot catch a Macintosh or UNIX virus (although viruses on
   the Mac, in particular, are very rare and almost entirely harmless).
   By the same token, a Mac cannot catch a PC virus. (Minor exception:
   A virus written in Microsoft Word for the PC can infect Mac Word,
   and vice versa; however, this affects only Word users.)

THE LAST WORD:

The Internet is cleaner than you think. Most servers are run by people
who watch for viruses. But you could get a virus if you aren't careful.
So do stay alert -- particularly when you download program files. But
don't worry about e-mail (unless it has attachments), and for pity's sake
*forget* "Good Times."

For a massive study on "shiloh" in this verse, consult
Posnanski's great work with the same title.

Simply receiving email cannot infect a system with a virus or trojan.
However it is possible for someone to send an encoded executable, Word
Document, various other wordprocessor documents, Excell spreadsheet,
etc.... which the email client will convert and launch (i.e., execute the
program or launch the word processor) and thereby inject the virus/trojan
onto the system... 

Solution: never enable launch on decode in your email or news programs
without running a virus scan first.

tc'ers,

I am planning on teaching a unit on textual criticism to my 2nd year Greek
students next semester. I am interested in hearing your comments on A) what
texts are best for a short unit, i.e. 6-9 hours of class time B) what
teaching methodology works at an undergrad level and C) which topics within
the whole arena of tc are best to cover. 

Suggestions?

Kevin Grenier,

	I Took a Texual Criticim class at the Graduate level under Dr. 
Carroll Osborne at Abilene Christian University in Abilene TX. He heads up 
the New Testament Greek project for the book of Acts for the UBS. Contact 
him, he should be able to help.

I have taught a brief (1 session) seminar on textual criticism such as you are describing and found 
that a text book is not practical.  I used a few classic examples of textual variants and demonstrated 
the procedure while I taught the principles.

I began the seminar by taking a passage from Matt. ("he who has ears *to hear* let him hear . . .), 
made four typewritten copies of the verse with the different variant readings (one with all capital 
letters, one without spaces or punctuation, etc.) and had a manual copying process happen starting the 
four copies at four different points in the room.  Each person copied from their neighbor's copy.  When 
each student in class had his own hand written copy of the verse, we created our own "textual 
apparatus" on an overhead transparency.  We actually obtains some additional "variants" that weren't in 
the Biblical text.  We then utilized the principles of internal and external evidence to determine 
which was the most probable original reading using the concept of families of manuscripts, scribal 
hapits, etc.  It was a VERY EFFECTIVE methodology to teach people who had never studied the topic.

After the actual hands on experience with the exercise, I then explained the formal principles and used 
a couple of other classic examples (Rom 5:1, etc.) to apply the principles.

THe class was very responsive to this approach and I got some excellent feedback.  The only references 
to "textbooks" I used were to Metzger's standard text, reading excerpts from the book as we discussed 
the princples of internal and external evidence, type of writing materials, etc.

For a short seminar setting, the practical hands on experience, I feel, goes much further than academic 
reading exercises.

 As TC book reviewer editor, I wanted to point that we will soon be
publishing a review by Tim Finney of Keith Elliott and Ian Moir's
"Manuscripts and the Text of the New Testament: An Introduction for English
Readers."  In this review Finney helpfully discusses and evaluates many of
the books mentioned in Kevin Woodruff's recent listing.
As a text critic (of sorts), I want to thank Paul Lorenzen for sharing his
pedagogical method of introducing the "nitty gritty" of scribal activity to
his students in such a creative and inventive way.  I have tried such an
approach myself, but (I fear) without Lorenzen's verve...
all the best,

leonard

I think the original post on this subject asked about including a short
section on NT TC in a Greek course.  I think that this should come late in
the course when students are getting to read NT texts more easily.  I would
then have them read pp. 15-84 of Jack Finegan, Encountering NT MSS (if out
of print, get permission to make copies).  And then I would have them make
their own critical edition of John 1:1-14 from P66 (page 114), P75 (page
119), Vaticanus (page 129), Sinaiticus (page 135), Bezae (page 143),
Washingtonensis (page 147), Alexandrinus (page 152), and 666 (pages
156-157).  They can use as a base text whatever text you have them read
from for the class.  A better way may be to make them colate against hH
KAINH DIAQHKA from the BIBLIKH hETAIREIA at hODOS FILELLHNWN 2A AQHNAI.
This would give them hands on experience and a feel for the science of TC.
They can form their own theories of transmission and history later when
they can study related subjects.
