Handschriftenliste und vergleichende Beschreibung

The over 1700 Greek mss. with a continuous text of St. John's Gospel available today are compared at 153 sampling points, and all the variants at these points are documented. A quantitative evaluation makes it possible to select the relevant mss. for an Editio Critica Maior of St. John's Gospel. In addition, a new process is introduced for also grouping the mss. of the Byzantine text-type. Volumes 37 and 38 with the complete collation of Chapter 18 will follow in 2006.
