Catena Bible

Here is an interesting Bible commentary that I ran across online:

• Catena Bible

Catena in connection with Christian Theology particularly means “a connected series of texts written by early Christian theologians.” This Bible/Commentary allows you to select a Book, Chapter, and Verse of the Bible, click on that verse and see comments on that verse by early Christian writers. This could be a helpful tool if you want to easily locate what was said by Tertullian, Chrysostom, Irenaeus, Jerome, Bede, etc., etc.

Caveats.

• All so-called church fathers are not sound Bible believers; some were heretics (some more and some less).
• This appears to be Roman-Catholic-oriented, since it includes the commentary of the very much later Catholic theologian George Leo Haydock (1849) alongside the “church fathers.”.
• With these caveats, wise use of the Catena Bible might allow it a useful study tool.

Articles on Italics in Bibles

Some online articles I have found that discuss the use of differentiated type (usually italics) in Bible texts.

• Answers to Inquiries, J. C. Philpot, (editor, The Gospel Standard, Strict Baptist periodical)
• Concerning Parenthesis and Italics, John M. Asquith (pastor, Sandusky Baptist Church)
• Exceptions to the rule: The use of distinguishing type in the King James Bible, R. L. Vaughn (pastor, Old Prospect Baptist Church)
• Italics in Bibles, R. L. Vaughn (pastor, Old Prospect Baptist Church)
• Italics in the KJV, Christopher Yetzer (Baptist missionary in Italy)
• On the Use of the Italic Type by the Translators, F. H. A. Scrivener (compiler of The New Testament in the Original Greek according to the Text followed in the Authorized Version)
• Reading the 1611 Bible, R. L. Vaughn (pastor, Old Prospect Baptist Church)
• The Case for Italics in Bible Translation, John C. Poirier (Chair of Biblical Studies, Kingswell Theological Seminary)
• The Italicized Words in the King James Bible, James L. Melton (pastor, Bible Baptist Church)
• The Use of Italics in the English Versions of the New Testament, William F. Specht (Seventh-day Adventist)

Greek “Majority” Texts

These links below are provided for the purpose of research and readily locating links to English translations of what are “Majority Text” Greek texts. When I was young it was not uncommon to refer in a sort of “shorthand” manner to the Textus Receptus (TR) traditional texts as “majority text” in contrast to the “critical text,” whose readings were often based on a small minority of Greek texts (often only two manuscripts in the places it chose to depart from the TR). The rise of actual printed texts called “Majority” texts created a need to clarify what is meant when one says “majority text.” (To me it seems not uncommon for older folks to still refer to the TR as “majority text.”)

There are a several English Bible translations that are based on a modern Greek Majority Text. I believe there are three Greek texts generally considered “Majority” Texts.

The World English Bible (WEB) is a revision of the 1901 ASV, made to conform to the “Majority Text” in places where it did not, by consulting Hodges-Farstad Majority Text and Robinson Pierpont Byzantine Textform. There are a number of derivatives of the WEB which would also be considered Majority Text Bibles, such as the World Messianic Bible (WMB).

New Testament Byzantine Text Version by Adam Boyd is based on the Robinson-Pierpoint Greek text. The Analytical Literal Translation (ALT) by Gary Zeolla is also based on the Robinson-Pierpont text, I believe.

The English Majority Text Version (EMTV) by Paul Esposito is based on the Hodges-Farstad Majority Text. “The Sovereign Creator Has Spoken” is a translation of Wilbur Pickering’s Greek text based on Family 35.

Some might argue that the Greek Patriarchal text of the Orthodox Church is a Majority Text. It is certainly Byzantine. I am including the text and a translation as a matter of reference.

Manuscript Search

Manuscript Search at Bible Theology Blog.

A search tool created by Seth Knorr to quickly and easily find where you are at in the manuscript. 

When you are looking at images of a Greek manuscript, you can type in a string of characters into the search box (either in Greek or a transliteration). The search will then tell you what passage or passages have that string of characters.

Bible Word Books

The following are books I have found online that purport to give definitions of old and archaic words in the Authorized King James translation of the Bible. I am compiling them here in one list, ordered chronologically.

• A Short Explanation of Obsolete Words in Our Version of the Bible, and of Such as Are There Used in a Peculiar of Uncommon Sense -- (Henry Cotton, Oxford: S. Collingwood, 1832)
• A Glossary of the Obsolete and Unusual Words and Phrases of the Holy Scriptures, in the Authorized English Version -- (J. Jameson, London: Wertheim and MacIntosh, 1850)
• Motes Upon Crystal: Or Obsolete Words of the Authorized Version of the Holy Bible, Critically and Chronologically Considered, Part I -- (Kirby Trimmer, London: Bell and Daldy, 1864)
• The Bible Word-Book: a Glossary of Old English Bible Words -- (Jonathan Eastwood, William Aldis Wright, London: Macmillan and Co., 1866)
• The Bible Word-Book: a Glossary of Archaic Words and Phrases in the Authorized Version of the Bible and the Book of Common Prayer -- (William Aldis Wright, London: Macmillan and Co., 1884)
• Bible Words That Have Changed in Meaning -- (Luther Allan Weigle, New York, NY: Thomas Nelson & Sons, 1955)
• The Bible Word Book: Concerning Obsolete or Archaic Words in the King James Version of the Bible -- (Ronald Bridges and Luther A. Weigle, New York, NY: Thomas Nelson & Sons, 1960)
• King James Bible Word Book -- (Martin H. Manser, editor. Nashville, TN: Thomas Nelson Publishers, 2002)
• Unique Words of the King James Bible -- (Jonathan Wheatley, Meadville, PA: Christian Faith Publishing, 2021) (Partial view)

Some of these are intended more as a help for the readers of the Authorized Version, while some may tend to be more critical of it. (For example, I think Bridges and Weigle hope to lead readers to eventually use the Revised Standard Version.) Additionally, be a Berean; search and study the definitions to see whether they are so in every case.

Thanks to Christopher Yetzer for information on the J. Jameson book.

Stephanus, Editio Regia Greek Text

Of the Greek texts printed by Robert Estienne/Robertus Stephanus (1503-1559), his third edition from 1550 is known as the Editio Regia (the “Regal Edition”), apparently because of the elegant Greek font that it uses. It can be found online in at least two places, and maybe more.

Blue Letter Bible Greek texts

Blue Letter Bible is a free, searchable online Bible program providing access to many different Bible translations. It includes at least three Greek texts (as well as one each Hebrew, Latin, and Spanish).

• Blue Letter Bible Morphological Greek New Testament (mGNT) This Greek text is very similar to the Nestle-Aland 27th edition text.
• Textus Receptus (TR) The Textus Receptus (Latin, “Received Text”) is the Greek text originally compiled by Erasmus around 1516. Though the earliest work was prepared by Desiderius Erasmus, his work was later revised by Robert Estienne (or, Stephanus) and further revised by Theodore Beza. The text produced by each is substantially the same, aside from some minor variations. The Blue Letter Bible utilizes Stephanus’ edition from 1550.
• Septuagint Greek Old Testament (LXX) Data files from the University of Pennsylvania Center for Computer Analysis of Texts (CCAT) and their Septuagint Greek Old Testament.

Some English Bibles published between 1611 and 1885

The new 1611 translation of the Holy Bible (Authorised/King James) became the prevailing English Bible translation for nearly four centuries. There was no major translation/revision done until the Revised Version of 1885. Nevertheless, in the intervening years, a number of minor (and sometimes nearly forgotten) translations of the Bible were published. Below is a resource of some Bibles translations printed after the 1611 translation commissioned by King James and the Revised Version completed in 1885.

• 1615 The Bible That Is The Holy Scriptures, Robert Barker (apparently the Geneva translation)
• 1654-1657 Walton’s London Polyglot
• 1749-52 Douay-Rheims Revision, Bishop Richard Challoner

Large List of Articles about The Bible

Due to recent discussions and studies regarding the King James Version of the Bible, I decided to attempt an exhaustive (or exhausting) list of posts about the Bible that are on Seeking the Old Paths. I hope this might make the finding of posts and maneuvering around the Bible a little easier. A blog is not as conducive to this as a web page/site.
