Paul Canart, probably the world’s leading expert on Codex Vaticanus, emailed to me how pleased he is with the article and its argument that scribe B faithfully copied a primitive manuscript of the Gospels.

I am delighted that New Testament Studies 63 (2017) 604-625 is publishing my study, “Vaticanus Distigme-obelos Symbols Marking Added Text, Including 1 Corinthians 14.34-5″ with twelve colour photographs, downloadable free in September 2017 from https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/new-testament-studies/open-access. Downloads are free since Christians for Biblical Equality paid to make it an Open Access article permitting unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.

Six groundbreaking discoveries in this study are summarized at cbe.today/Vaticanus.
