4. Textual and Linguistic Commentary

  • Kim Phillips (author)
Chapter of: Two Early Byzantine Bible Manuscripts in Christian Palestinian Aramaic: Codex Climaci Rescriptus II & XI(pp. 167–192)
This chapter consists of a commentary on the textual and linguistic issues arising from the fresh transcriptions of CCR II and CCR XI provided in the previous two chapters. Textually, the commentary only discusses the most obvious semantic divergences between the Greek (using the 28th edition of Nestle-Aland as the comparison text) and the freshly edited CPA. Linguistically, the commentary presents all the instances known to the author where the reading of the new edition contributes to our understanding of CPA grammar and lexicography.
