This book examines the Greek text of the New Testament, arguing that the foundational text used by English translations derives from a late manuscript tradition originating from Antioch. The author details the history of the Greek text across millennia, showing how this manuscript tradition became dominant. The author also explores competing textual traditions, which predate the Received Text, and are rooted in earlier and geographically distinct manuscript traditions, such as those from Egypt, supporting the idea that the Received Text is a composite document. The book is significant for challenging the traditional view of the superiority of the Received Text and for suggesting a more nuanced understanding of the development of the New Testament text.
