The “Parchment Guys” gave us a heads up on a news story that will surface later this week concerning recent New Testament manuscript finds. Here is an excerpt from the post.
That’s the title of a press release that is going out this week. I’ll have to wait until the news of the location, as well as the number and significance of the manuscripts, is broken before I can say too much more. But as many of you know, these “discoveries” were made by a team from the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts (www.csntm.org). The team came back with over 18,000 high-resolution digital photographs, filling one terabyte of data. Altogether, 47 manuscripts were photographed (though many of them were previously known to western scholars).
Go here for the entire story.
