The curator volunteered the comment that they were very rarely consulted. Burgon seems not to have chosen the optimum way to ensure that his work was used.P.J.

There was a Patristic Bible Commentary project going in English, beginning with Mark, that was using the RSV as its base. That being the case, they wouldn't be able to give any Patristic evidence for any uniquely Byzantine readings--an a priori choice that ensured I'll never have any interest in the project.<BR/><BR/>Burgon already collated all the patristic citations, but no one appears to be interested in publishing them. Has anyone here dropped by the British Museum to look them over?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
