Stylos is the blog of Jeff Riddle, a Reformed Baptist Pastor in North Garden, Virginia. The title "Stylos" is the Greek word for pillar. In 1 Timothy 3:15 Paul urges his readers to consider "how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar (stylos) and ground of the truth."

Let us say that there are three main textual traditions - Received, Byzantine, Critical; and that there are three main proponents of thise traditions - Scrivener 1881 (/1884), Robinson-Pierpont 2018, NA/UBS. The most rational and most useful scholarly Greek New Testament would be an A4 double page format : on the one page, the three texts publlished sude by side, line matched; and, on the other page, critical apparatus/es, notes, etc..With modern technology, we can - and should - be producing far more than partial and piecemeal publications!

Good and interesting presentation. I look forward to your possibly saying more about the order or sequencing of the New Testament books.
