  2. Peter Gurry,
    Looking forward to it.
    Is there anything new to report other than that the number of Greek witnesses to the Shorter Ending (between v. 8 and v. 9, or (in 274) in the lower margin) has been increased from six to eight?
    Will Dan Wallace, Craig Evans, Philip Wesley Comfort, N.T. Wright, Larry Richards, Darrell Bock, Ben Witherington III, etc., appear as guests, and make public retractions of the misinformation they have spread about Mark 16:9-20?

    Will someone from Crossway be present to explain their reasons for describing Codex W as "at least one manuscript" instead of "one manuscript"?
    And will someone from Tyndale House Publishers be present to explain why the NLT's footnote refers to "various endings" instead of two endings? In any generation in which misinformation - i.e., false claims - is tolerated and rewarded, the impact of research will be minimal.

    2. Is that the sound of an ax I hear grinding?

      Perhaps it is the sound of the sharp axe of truth, cutting down the tree of bad criticism.

    4. James,
      Logically, "one manuscript" _is_ "at least one manuscript", i.e., not less than.

    5. Pardes,
      Of course, but seldom does one describe one person as "at least one person," right?. And in the case of the ESV, "at least one person" was a half-measure after earlier editions has a footnote that said, "A few manuscripts insert additional material after verse 14," which is simply false; Codex W is the only one. After I contacted some folks with influence upon the ESV, the note was changed - but my question remains, Why not be as accurate as possible, when it is easy, rather than blurring the evidence with the wording that now appears in the ESV's footnote (not only the "Some" and "Others," but that "at least one," when it would have been easier, more logical, and more concise to simply write "One.").

    6. Yes, my apologies; I should have said "Peter Williams."

    7. Why is it so hard for people to get the facts straight on this passage? Sincere question.
