Summary:
"This book investigates how the early Greek whole-Bible manuscripts change and preserve the text. It critiques the method based on singular readings and challenges accepted transcriptions of Codex Ephraemi. It crosses disciplines, covering both the New Testament and LXX. The conclusions show that the textual characteristics of the manuscripts vary across the canon, but that theological changes are consistently rarer than linguistic changes or transcriptional errors." -- Publisher, page four of cover.
