Chuck,
How well are you educated concerning the Greek manuscripts? I ask this because you have taken on a question of mine that I was going to ask on another New Testament Bible forum. It has to do with Sinaiticus being compared along side with Vaticanus. I have read from previous source that Tischondorf said that the same scribe copied both the Sinaiticus and the Vaticanus manuscripts. Now these 2 Greek manuscripts are of the same textual family being from the Alexandrian textual family; am I correct?
I would like to ask you (or anyone here information about Sinaiticus and Vaticuanus) how well THESE TWO MANUSCRIPTS OVERLAP OR REFLECT EACHOTHER?
Does the reading of these two manuscripts together (side by side if you will) HARMONIZE pretty well or is there alot of difference between the two yielding a rugged or discontinuity type comparison?
How well would you rate the harmony between these two manuscripts (Sinaiticus and Vaticanus) on a scale of one to ten with (1) being the least quality of harmony between the 2 to the point where it is eggregious, or (10) the highest quality of harmany or agreement between these 2 (like, you would probably give a "10" when comparing two Peshitta manuscripts.
I go a little bit out of the way to ask this because SO MUCH STOCK, in the field of textual criticism has been put on these 2 manuscripts that it marginalizes most all the other New Testament manuscripts and really puts very little emphasis on the Byzantine manuscripts copies. Thank you for your time.
Kindly,
mike
