New Manuscripts!

My professor just informed me that the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts, headed by Daniel Wallace, has discovered over 125 manuscripts in 8 locations that they will be photographing over the next year. This is huge! These manuscripts add up to over 6000 pages of text! This is not going to revolutionize the New Testament, but it will rather strengthen our confidence in the reliability of the Bible and deepen our understanding of the transmission of the New Testament text.

The massive evidence for the reliability of the New Testament continues to grow! I am excited to see what new information these discoveries will bring to textual criticism.
