How to read this blog!

These discussions between Alan and Jace need to be read sequentially. You just think they don't make much sense, try reading them out of order! We have named each blog in the following manner:
#1 -Title of Blog
#2- Title of Blog

Etcetera. Once a topic is started by Alan or Jace they will keep that topic as the "Title of Blog" followed by a Post #. The Post # will dictate where, sequentially, a given post belongs in the timeline. For now, it's not an issue. Simply scroll to the bottom and read upwards. Still, we are initiating this library system in the hopes it will one day be necessary!

Enjoy....

#39 The Gospels as History Post #3

What Extant Canonical Manuscripts or Fragments are Available?

I begin by not beginning at all, but rather by borrowing someone else's beginning.  Too much work otherwise.

Check this out. I'm not really looking for a response to this, but simply for you to read it. It's a good scholarly summary (from Duke) that introduces some of the textual issues. What kinds of textual copies and fragments do we have? When are they dated? How are they dated? That kind of thing.
