Codex

[DeaconDean]

I have been looking at the Codex Sinaiticus. mainly for reference to Acts.

Can anybody give some inight on this manuscript?

And while we're at it, any info on the p74 (papyrus 74) would be helpful also.

Thanks.

God Bless

KJVO advocates have accused Sinaiticus of having a large number of homoeoteleuta (about 300, they claim). A search of the Journal of Biblical Literature from 1973 to 2008 yielded no verification for this accusation. Moreover, I am not certain 300 really is a large number of such errors for an entire Greek New Testament in four columns. Likely as not, the claim is completely false, parroted by KJVO advocates to suit their agenda. However, it would be interesting to discover for certain just how many suspected homoeoteleuta are present in Sinaiticus.

I found a place to print images of scanned pages of the Codex Sinaiticus and am I wrong in assuming that the text is written in all capital letters?
