The Sacred Writings of St. John the Apostle
Written for Pastors and serious Bible scholars to give them more time in the Greek text. The first question for the serious Bible scholar should be is “What is the text?” Only then are you ready to move on to “What does it mean?” The Sacred Writings of St. John the Apostle presents the “Received Texts” since its inception to present as the eclectic text in use today. The changes over time are color coded Greek script. The textual critic’s effort to recover the original autographs is recorded as the top. Like an interlinear Bible at a level one English translation is provided. Below this in parallel and vertical format are the major Greek Uncials and Papyri published. This documents that take us to within twenty to forty years of the original autographs. The mundane work has been done. Now a study of the text itself can occupy your study.
