The Codex Vaticanus: New Testament-Oldest Manuscript (English)


Overview

Codex Vaticanus (ENGLISH) NEW TESTAMENT THE OLD TESTAMENT WILL BE COMING OUT SHORTLY (FEW WEEKS) www.the-hijacked-mind.com This was very difficult project to put together...... The Codex Vaticanus is perhaps the most important of all the manuscripts of the Holy Scripture. The Codex Vaticanus is believed to be among the oldest copies of the Greek Bible in existence. It is called so because it is conserved in the Vatican Library. The Codex Vaticanus is a quarto volume which is written in uncial letters of the 4th century, on folios of fine parchment bound in quinterns. Each page of the Codex Vaticanus is divided into three columns of forty to forty-four lines each; with 16 to 18 letters in a single line, except in the poetic books, where as a result of the stichometric division of the lines, there are only two columns. The Codex Vaticanus consists of 617 leaves; the Old Testament is made up of 474 leaves while the New Testament is made up of 142 leaves. Each leaf measures approximately 10.8 inches on each side. There are no capital letters in the Codex Vaticanus, but at times the first letter of a section extends over the margin. The letters are written in a brown ink and rest either on the guidance line or on the ruled line which runs halfway between the lines of writing. There is no separation of words and virtually no punctuation. This must be an interesting script to attempt to read! The Old Testament of the Codex Vaticanus lacks the following passages: Genesis 1-46: 28; 2 Samuel 2:5-7. The order of the Old Testament books is as follows: Genesis to Second Paralipomenon, First and Second Esdras, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Canticle of Canticles, Job, Wisdom, Ecclesiasticus, Esther, Judith, Tobias, the Minor Prophets from Osee to Malachi, Isaias, Jeremias, Baruch, Lamentations and Epistle of Jeremias, Ezechiel and Daniel The New Testament of the Codex Vaticanus also has some missing quinterns including: part of the Pauline Epistels, Hebrews 9:14-13:25, the Pastoral Letters, the Epistel to Philemon and the Apocalypse. There are several interesting facts concerning the Codex Vaticanus and especially concerning the distortions that has been made in this script over the centuries. For instance, the Codex Vaticanus was revised in the 8th, 10th and 15th centuries thus it is not as it was originally. In fact the entire Codex Vaticanus manuscript has been manipulated; every letter has been run over with a pen and there are some sentences, clauses and even verses that have been omitted. The exact origin of Codex Vaticanus is uncertain. There are different views and arguments that have been raised concerning the origin of this script. Hort thinks that it was written in Rome; while Armitage Robinson, Harris Rendel and others attribute it to Asia Minor. On the other hand, there are others who claim that it was actually written in Egypt. There are various collations, editions and studies of the Codex Vaticanus. Visit the Vatican Library and have a first-hand experience with this historical and religious script.

Author Information

When you hear the Word, do the Word! I was drawn into the depths and heartbeat of this supernatural war. When God called me to this ministry, I had an LLC roofing company, but God closed that door. He wanted me to carry a cross-crucified and sanctified. This ministry has prepared me, broken me, and crushed me! It has brought me down to the depths of despair. The cross has kept me in the fetters of sweet slavery. It has crushed my pity and peacock pride. It has crushed my arrogance. It has kept me on my knees before the throne, desperate for Jesus. Crushed is the god of self on the throne of my soul. I started this ministry out of the fountain of obedience, not for glory. This ministry is a cross that I carry: it is heavy, it is weighty, and it crushes me for God's glory. Out of tragedy, He turned it into blessings; He took my old song and made it a symphony. Testimonies of what I have experienced, and testimonies I hope to experience: I stood before the Lord like Isaiah; I experienced rejection like Joseph; I went through a wilderness like Job; I've warned like Noah; I was given a thorn like Paul; I saw the fallen angels described in Jude 1:6; I saw demons as described in Ephesians 6; I experienced persecution like Peter; I have had a born-again experience like every apostle. Lastly, I hope to be raptured like Elijah and walk with God like Enoch, until I am not. This book took a lifetime to write-from a story, a testimony, a ministry, and sound biblical doctrine. Share this book with people you love, people in the deepest depths of darkness, people struggling with addictions, and anyone else in the gloomy pits and prisons-from an 8x10 room to the four corners of the earth. Let us unite, fight this war together, and be soul-winners! Don't just keep Jesus in the church house; get Him into their house! Don't keep Him in there; get Him out there! It's the last call to win the lost. God bless you all! In Jesus' name, amen! ""...behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee...""-Matthew 19:27 (KJV)
