The Earliest Evidence for the Text of the New Testament

Description

Though we think of the New Testament as a text that has been copied by hand for 14 centuries, this does not mean that we have to assume that the wording is unreliable. The first argument why this is not a logical conclusion is that of chronology. There is very little time between the writing of the originals and our first complete evidence. In this talk we will have a look at this evidence and see what we can learn from this.
