DeleteRonald Hendel, in "Farewell to Textual Criticism?" at The Bible and Interpretation site responded to Molly M. Zahn's Chapter 4.

They need to re-run Part III with chapter in Hebrew manuscripts of the New Testament (Spain and Malabar texts). Then I would be prepared to sell my kidney to get hold of it. Legit.
ReplyDeleteA chapter on the Hebrew NT manuscripts would be great, but... Are any of the Hebrew fragments older than AD 1100 (other than a copy of the Lord's Prayer in Hebrew in Latin characters)? If not, they are more than 1,000 years removed from the NT autographs of the NT. Does that leave us with no direct evidence that any existing Hebrew NT text is as old as the Old Syriac, Old Latin, Coptic, Palestinian Aramaic, Geez/Ethiopian, Gothic, Sogdian, Old Armenian, and Old Georgian translations? If not, then the Hebrew NT is perhaps no more useful for textual criticism than those the translations that the book covers. (Also, does the book cover the Sogdian, Old Armenian, and Old Georgian translations?) However, in the fourth century Epiphanius mentioned the Gospel of John and Acts in Hebrew (Eran Shuali, "Why Was the New Testament Translated into Hebrew?", https://www.degruyterbrill.com/document/doi/10.1515/opth-2016-0041/html ), so if parts of the Hebrew NT dated from an earlier time, it would be good to see in handbooks such as this one whether the authors think the early translation was incorporated into any Hebrew MSS of the twelfth century and onwards. Someone (perhaps Miles Jones) spoke of a complete Hebrew NT recovered from India (Malabar?); has an old Hebrew NT really been found anywhere, or was that just a false rumor, stemming from the tradition that Bartholomew had taken the "original Hebrew" Gospel of Matthew to India? (Such claims have been started by no less than various editors of Sebastian Munster's Hebrew translation from Greek.)
