Tischendorf, Dr. Constantin. (   ) Codex Sinaiticus. The Discovery of the World’s Oldest Bible. The Book Tree. 2016. See also James Bentley’s work above. GJ – Tischendorf baptized the fake Sinaiticus as the World’s Oldest Bible and promoted Vaticanus as being just as old. Neither Bible has a genuine history or children. Why did no one copy them or wear them out through copying and use?

Trinitarian Bible Society booklets are very well written, precise, and reliable in defending the value, fidelity, and authority of the King James Version. The author is a member of this group. See a list of some of the titles at the end of the sources.

Voelz, James W. (2013). Mark Commentary, 2 vols! 1320 pages. Concordia Publishing House. GJ - Note how the Beck Bible footnote error on the ending of Mark 16 is now trumpeted by a “conservative” seminary professor and CPH. This gigantic collection of errors is based upon the Church of Rome’s dubious Codex Vaticanus, mysteriously promoted with Sinaiticus as the world’s oldest, but in reality falsification’s boldest. Christian News laid the foundation for Voelz by promoting and selling the Beck Bible.

Vance, Laurence M. (1993). A Brief History of English Bible Translations. 1993. GJ – Far more English translations have been published than most could imagine. The KJV remains dominant among those who read the Bible.

Greek New Testaments

H KAINH DIATHHKH – The New Testament, Textus Receptus, Trinitarian Bible Society. 1976.

The Greek New Testament. Fifth Revised Edition. (2020). Barbara Aland, Kurt Aland, Bruce Metzger, et al. 2020. GJ - This features the minority texts of Sinaiticus and Vaticanus, its fantasies almost the same as the Westcott-Hort, which was kept hidden in the 19th century KJV revision. The Revision of was a disaster as an improved KJV, but the Westcott-Hort Greek text, which they conjured up from their theories, is now the Nestle-Aland, with few exceptions.

Stephanus edition, Majority Text. Greek New Testament. GJ – This is the text preserved in 5,000 or more examples from the Byzantine, Greek Christian Empire, also known as the Eastern Roman Empire, which continued after the Fall of Rome in 400 AD and continued until its doom in 1453, when the Ottoman Turks captured Constantinople. The overwhelming majority of all Greek New Testament texts is from the Apostolic Age, quite different from the handful of “oldest” examples from the self-promoting careers of Tischendorf, Westcott, and Hort.

Westcott Brook Foss, and Fenton John Anthony Hort. (1953). The New Testament in the Original Greek. Macmillan. GJ - These two frauds secretly printed a thousand Greek copies early for the KJV revisers, using their status to get the vast changes made based on Vaticanus, Sinaiticus, and their now-debunked text theories. Today’s Nestle-Aland is very much the Westcott-Hort but with a critical apparatus attached. The Westcott-Hort, which I own, has no justification below for their falsehoods, such as omitting “the Son of God” from Mark 1:1.
