Didache as textual witness

Peter Malik has published on the Didache as a textual witness in the SJNTS (Student Journal for New Testament Studies). It will be interesting to see how this new journal develops and whether the idea of a student journal will prove successful.

Interesting. Looks like the kind of issue that's not limited to the Didache.

Probably helpful if they could copy edit. The second sentence doesn't make sense: "This present writer does not think that the way our hand-editions of the GNT treat the Didache with appropriate caution."

to anon: You're right. I don't know how I could've created/missed that one!

There is also some TC work in one of the other articles in this volume on the crucifixion by Tyler Smith who is, according to the article, a PhD student at Yale. Looks like a pretty neat journal.

to anon: 1. the error got corrected. 2. yes, Tyler´s article is the highlight of the journal.


The membership of this blog is made up of evangelicals involved in academic study of textual criticism. Those with appropriate expertise and theological convictions who wish to be considered for membership should contact Peter Head or Tommy Wasserman. Those applying for membership must indicate that they have read either the OT or the NT in its original language(s), should be actively involved in text-critical research, and should be already contributing to the blog through comments. They should give e-mail details of an academic and a pastoral referee, a summary of their academic and/or ministry involvement, a statement of their doctrinal commitment (which may be by reference to various classic evangelical statements of faith, e.g. 39 Articles, Westminster Confession), and an indication of their area of interest within textual criticism. Non-members who wish to comment are not expected to be evangelical, but they are requested to respect the blog's ethos.
