Description
The Ecclesiastical Text Criticism, Biblical Authority and the Popular Mind by Theodore P. Letis This collection of essays presents a rigorous defense of the use of the Textus Receptus, or the Ecclesiastical Text, in biblical studies. Written between 1987-1997, these technical studies explore translation philosophy, text criticism, and the Protestant orthodox dogmatic traditions of the seventeenth-century. Letis challenges prevailing notions about biblical authority, arguing that it is found not in the original autographs, but rather in the apographa, or the text preserved in the church. This thought-provoking work offers a unique perspective on the theological shift in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The book includes four important book reviews and two appendices, making it a valuable resource for scholars and researchers in the field of biblical studies.
