Comprises the complete two-volume set of part 5 (The Gospel of John) of the "Text und Textwert der griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments." The over 1700 Greek manuscripts 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 manuscripts for an Editio Critica Maior of St. John's Gospel. In addition, a new process is introduced for also grouping the manuscripts of the Byzantine text-type (publisher's note). Series: Arbeiten zur neutestamentlichen Textforschung, vols. 35; 36.
