| Many
people today have no idea of how the Bible came to us in it's present
form. The links will provide you with good information on the subject.
With the liberal mind set of society today and the recent pollution that
the Jesus Seminar movement has been producing, it would do Christians well
know how much care has been given to God's word over the years. |

Manuscript Categories - In 1981, Kurt and Barbara Aland published Der Text des Neuen
Testaments (English translation: The Text of the New Testament, translated by Erroll F.
Rhodes, Second edition, Eerdmans/ E. J. Brill, 1989). The most noteworthy feature of this edition
was its new classification of manuscripts. Based primarily on the "Thousand Readings in a
Thousand Minuscules" project (the results of which are now being published in the series
Text und Textwert der griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments, K. Aland et al, 1987
and following), the Alands set out to place the vast majority of known manuscripts into
"Categories." |

Other Books of the Bible - These are works you will find sited, but are not in the Canon.
They have been rejected by the Jews and Christians. The author of this site is convinced these hold a
special meaning and are of equal authority to the Old and New Testaments. While I disagree with the
author, I include this site as a convenience to have access to all of these works. |
