It is widely believed that the early Christians copied their texts themselves without a great deal of expertise, and that some copyists introduced changes to support their theological beliefs. In this volume, however, Alan Mugridge examines all of the extant Greek papyri bearing Christian literature up to the end of the 4th century, as well as several comparative groups of papyri, and concludes that, on the whole, Christian texts, like most literary texts in the Roman world, were copied by trained scribes. Professional Christian scribes probably became more common after the time of Constantine, but this study suggests that in the early centuries the copyists of Christian texts in Greek were normally trained scribes, Christian or not, who reproduced those texts as part of their trade and, while they made mistakes, copied them as accurately as any other texts they were called upon to copy.

This authoritative work delves into the meticulous and often understudied world of the early Christian copyists who played a pivotal role in the formation and preservation of the New Testament texts. From the first century onward, these scribes not only copied sacred texts but also shaped the future of Christian doctrine through their decisions and scribal practices. Spanning ten comprehensive chapters, the book begins by exploring the initial stages of the New Testament's composition in Chapter 1: The Making of New Testament Books, which sets the historical and theological context for the texts' creation. Chapter 2: The New Testament Copyists and Their Materials examines the tools and materials that were essential to the craft of these early scribes, revealing how the physical means of production influenced the textual transmission. Chapter 3: The Book Writing Process of the New Testament offers insights into the collaborative efforts between authors and scribes, while Chapter 4: The Production of New Testament Manuscripts provides a detailed look at the actual processes involved in the creation of these enduring documents. Chapter 5: Most Important Manuscripts (100 – 400 C.E.) and Chapter 6: Dating the Earliest Manuscripts of the New Testament present a critical analysis of the key manuscripts and discuss methodologies for dating these invaluable texts. The exploration deepens in Chapter 7: The Nomina Sacra (Sacred Name) in New Testament Manuscripts, which investigates the treatment of divine names and their significant role in scribal practices. Chapter 8: Textual Variants in the Greek New Testament addresses the complexities of textual variation and its implications for biblical scholarship. Chapter 9: Modern Theories and Methods of New Testament Textual Criticism brings the discussion into contemporary scholarly debates, highlighting the evolution of textual criticism over the centuries. Finally, Chapter 10: How Scribes Influenced the Text of the New Testament synthesizes the findings from previous chapters to demonstrate the profound impact scribes had on the New Testament text. Each chapter is meticulously researched, drawing on the latest academic studies and archaeological findings to provide a rich narrative that is both scholarly and accessible. This book is an essential resource for theologians, historians, biblical scholars, and anyone interested in the origins and transmission of the New Testament. It offers a rare glimpse into the lives and labors of the early scribes whose contributions have helped to preserve one of the world's most influential religious texts.

Open Access for this publication was made possible by a generous donation from Segelbergska stiftelsen för liturgivetenskaplig forskning (The Segelbergska Foundation for Research in Liturgical Studies). In a seminal study, Cur cantatur?, Anders Ekenberg examined Carolingian sources for explanations of why the liturgy was sung, rather than spoken. This multidisciplinary volume takes up Ekenberg’s question anew, investigating the interplay of New Testament writings, sacred spaces, biblical interpretation, and reception history of liturgical practices and traditions. Analyses of Greek, Latin, Coptic, Arabic, and Gǝʿǝz sources, as well as of archaeological and epigraphic evidence, illuminate an array of topics, including recent trends in liturgical studies; manuscript variants and liturgical praxis; Ignatius of Antioch’s choral metaphor; baptism in ancient Christian apocrypha; and the significance of late ancient altar veils.
