Remarks in the Khabouris manuscript margin

[distazo]

[b]Chuck,
But I read this point on this forum a few days ago and the conclusion or the point a couple of folks were trying to make is that we DO NOT have any of the originals from either of those texts types (Aramaic or Greek).


Kindly,

Being the oldest manuscript is not always the best argument though.
Take for instance the Alexandrian Greek NT and compare it with the majority text of the Greek, which is in opinion to many, a better text and even better in sync with the Peshitt(a)/(o). The sina?ticus also is very old but in a very bad quality looking at the many errors which are there.

So, if some early scribe ruined the copy, later copies also got the mistakes.
