Family 35 (GRCF35)
Overview
A critical edition of the Greek New Testament based on the manuscript group known as Family 35 (f35), edited by Wilbur N. Pickering (ThM, PhD). Family 35 is a subgroup within the Byzantine manuscript tradition, named after minuscule 35, the complete New Testament manuscript faithful to the family archetype with the smallest catalog number. [1] Pickering argues that f35 represents the only line of transmission within known Greek NT manuscripts that is consistent in its archetypical form across all 27 books. [2] The edition includes a critical apparatus giving percentage of manuscript attestation for variant readings. Pickering, a Wycliffe Bible Translators missionary and linguist who worked with the Apurina people in Brazil from 1961, devoted decades to collating hundreds of Family 35 manuscripts from locations across Asia Minor and Greece. [3] The text is freely distributed under the principle “Freely you have received, so freely give.” [2]
