homoeoteleuton - rarely are there extant source-target manuscripts
homoeoteleuton is a type of error that is particularly likely to occur independently. Andrew Criddle Hi Andrew, It is very rare that we have extant source and target manuscripts that match for a particular homoeoteleuton. Yet Claromontanus has four that are extremely well documented, where the form...

worthless posting
The fellow who tried to shill for Wasserman, often vulgar, does not even understand that homoeoteleuton is a one-way phenomenon. Source—>Target. He argued that Siniticus could have been the Source ms. and Claromontanus the target.
So his posting is skewed and worthless.

Tommy Wasserman hand-wave attempt
For example, a fine textual scholar, Tommy Wasserman, already responded to and countered your apparently misleading characterization, assuming he was accurately quoted, in this very forum, BC&HF. And you replied there the next day. So, unless you forgot, what you wrote above is quite false. Do ...

Re: KJV Tampering as a precursor to Sinaiaticus Fraud
Here is another one. It is rare for one extant manuscript to match perfectly as a source text for the homoeoteleutons in another ms. Yet Claromontanus has a number of spots where its line lengths and formatting fit as the source for Sinaiticus missing lines. In a sensible scholarship world, this wou...

the black hole of Sinaiticus scholarship due to the faux consensus date
"Sinaiticus scholarship," if you are familiar with it, misled many scholars, precisely in your view, how? The main problem was that it quickly had an established date of 4th century, without examining the manuscript. This led to scholars unable to consider what would be more reasonable te...

a Vatican-Jesuit conspiracy involved in Sinaiticus?
That the Vatican and the Patriarch, in that era, in that manner, colluded as speculated above, besides lacking evidence, is improbable. And, perhaps, also speculation influenced by prior views--though two differing views--about the Bible. We see through a glass darkly. There are suspicious elements...

1859 - "by permission of the librarian"
What do you mean by Kallinikos - “by permission of the librarian” ? What is that quote from? This relates to the big heist of 1859: The Journal of Sacred Literature (1863-04) https://books.google.com/books?id=vvgDAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA212 Kallinikos Hieromononachos, Oct 15, 1862, Alexandria Simonides.....

Tischendorf - more 1844 theft discovered recently
the 1844 CFA theft by Tischendorf https://www.purebibleforum.com/index.php?threads/the-1844-cfa-theft-by-tischendorf.3037/ To be clear, I am allowing the possibility of monastery-Tischendorf collusion in the theft, or a wink-wink from his cronies, but the evidence is very very strong that Tischendor...

Tischendorf - 1844 theft from St. Catherine's
Note that Tischendorf went directly to Constantius after he stole the 43 leaves in 1844, likely he had been told that the manuscript had gotten to Sinai from Constantinople. A trip there could help his efforts to get the full manuscript. Or rather: he didn't "steal" them. He took them to ...

Re: HAramaic: the Hebrew and Aramaic roots in the New Testament
The four libraries in four different countries with portions of it accept to NOT test it with AMS C-14, or to spectral test the ink. They are however very quick to cancel testing that does get scheduled; they know what the results would be. There was a real examination planned in 1861 (when both se...
