Byzantine text-type
Encyclopedia
The Byzantine text-type (also called Majority, Traditional, Ecclesiastical, Constantinopolitan, Antiocheian, or Syrian) is one of several text-types
used in textual criticism
to describe the textual character of Greek
New Testament
manuscripts
. It is the form found in the largest number of surviving manuscript
s, though not in the oldest. The New Testament text of the Greek Orthodox Church
, the Constantinople Patriarchate edition of 1904, is based on this text-type. While considerably varying, it also underlies the Textus Receptus
Greek text used for most Reformation-era translations of the New Testament into vernacular languages. Modern translations mainly use Eclectic editions that conform more often to the Alexandrian text-type
.
The Byzantine text is also found in a few modern Greek Orthodox
editions, as the Byzantine textual tradition has continued in the Eastern Orthodox Church into the present time. The text used by Greek Orthodox Church is supported by late minuscule manuscripts. It is commonly accepted as standard Byzantine text.
The Byzantine textform is often marked with the abbreviations 𝔐 or Byz.
but which took many centuries to catch on outside scholarly circles. For example, of 522 complete or nearly complete manuscripts of the General Epistles
collated by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research
in Münster
, Germany
, 372 of them attest the Byzantine reading in at least 90% of 98 test places. Amongst the earliest surviving manuscripts, the position is reversed. There are six manuscripts earlier than the 9th century which conform to the Byzantine text-type; of which the 5th century Codex Alexandrinus
, (the oldest), is Byzantine only in the Gospels with the rest of the New Testament being Alexandrian. By comparison, the Alexandrian text-type
is witnessed by nine surviving uncials earlier than the ninth century (including the Codex Alexandrinus outside the Gospels); and is also usually considered to be demonstrated in three earlier papyri
. Modern critical editions of the New Testament tend to conform most often to Alexandrian witnesses — especially Codex Sinaiticus
and Codex Vaticanus. The earliest Church Father
to witness to a Byzantine text-type in substantial New Testament quotations is John Chrysostom
(c. 349 — 407); although the fragmentary surviving works of Asterius the Sophist
(† 341) have also been considered to conform to the Byzantine text. Chrysostom and Asterius used text only in 75% agreed with the standard Byzantine text. The earliest translation to witness to a Greek base conforming generally to the Byzantine text in the Gospels is the Syriac Peshitta
(though it has many Alexandrian and Western readings); usually dated to the 4th century; although in respect of several much contested readings, such as Mark 1:2 and John 1:18, the Peshitta rather supports the Alexandrian witnesses.
The form of the Byzantine text found in the earliest witnesses is not a monolithic whole, and sometimes differs from a Byzantine sub-group of manuscripts that proliferated after the 11th century. Amongst the bulk of later manuscripts however, it is generally possible to demonstrate a clear Byzantine majority reading for each variant; and a Greek New Testament text based on these majority readings — "The Majority Text" — has been produced by Zane C. Hodges
and Arthur L. Farstad, although this text does not correspond to any one particular manuscript.

manuscripts, the distinct Byzantine readings tend to show a greater tendency toward smooth and well-formed Greek, they display fewer instances of textual variation between parallel Synoptic Gospel passages, and they are less likely to present contradictory or "difficult
" issues of exegesis
. For example, Mark
1:2 reads "As it is written in the prophets.." in the Byzantine text; whereas the same verse reads, "As it is written in Isaiah
the prophet.." in all other early textual witnesses. Since the quotation introduced is partly from Malachi
, the Byzantine form of the verse avoids the difficulty that might be adduced were it to be concluded that Mark was presenting a factual inaccuracy.
Another characteristic is the grammar (f.e. οι δε ειπον, in Alexandrian text: οι δε ειπαν) and the different order of words. For example:
John 6:49
Mark 1:9
Also, the Byzantine text does not contain verses included by Textus Receptus: Luke 17:36; Acts 8:37; 15:34.
There are no consistent Byzantine witnesses amongst the early New Testament papyri. Nevertheless, instances of distinctive Byzantine readings are not unusual in the earliest texts — even though they otherwise conform more to other text-types or none. Hence, many (and possibly most) distinctive Byzantine readings are likely to be early in date. Two broad explanations have been offered for this observation:
Matthew 5:25
Matthew 10:4
Matthew 14:12
Matthew 15:6
Matthew 15:6
Matthew 15:8
Gospel of Mark 1:13
Gospel of Mark 4:24
Gospel of Mark 6:33
Mark 6:51
Mark 7:8
Mark 9:49
Luke 2:38
Luke 7:10
Luke 12:14
Last verse in Gospel of Luke (24:53)
John 1:18
Acts 20:28
Acts 27:41
In Romans 8:1
1 Corinthians 2:1
1 Corinthians 7:5
1 Corinthians 11:24
In Mark 6:33 and Luke 24:53 the Byzantine text-type looks like a combination of the Alexandrian and the Western text. In other cases situation is more complicated. Mark 1:13 looks like a combination of the Alexandrian and the Caesarean text.
The standard Byzantine text used by Greek Orthodox Church is supported by late minuscule manuscripts and the oldest manuscripts were written in the 9th century. The early Byzantine text is different from the late Byzantine text in 3000 places and it is near to the Alexandrian text. Early Byzantine families as family E and Π, Kurt Aland did not classified as the Byzantine manuscripts, and some of them he placed to the Category III of the Greek New Testament manuscripts. All manuscripts with standard Byzantine text Aland placed to Category V.
of Basel on March 1, 1516 (Novum Instrumentum omne
). Due to the pressure of his publisher to bring their edition to market before the competing Complutensian Polyglot
, Erasmus based his work on around a half-dozen manuscripts, all of which dated from the twelfth century or later; and only one of which was not of the Byzantine text-type. Six verses that were not witnessed in any of these sources, he back-translated from the Latin Vulgate
, and he also introduced many readings from the Vulgate and Church Fathers
. This text came to be known as the Textus Receptus
or received text after being thus termed by Bonaventura Elzevir, an enterprising publisher from the Netherlands, in his 1633 edition of Erasmus' text. The New Testament of the King James Version of the Bible was translated from editions of what was to become the Textus Receptus. If the "Majority Text" of Hodges and Farstad is taken to be the standard for the Byzantine text-type, then The Textus Receptus differs from this in 1,838 Greek readings, of which 1,005 represent "translatable" differences.
. Although the majority of New Testament textual critics now favor a text that is Alexandrian
in complexion, especially after the publication of Westcott
and Hort
's edition, there remain some proponents of the Byzantine text-type as the type of text most similar to the autographs. These critics include the editors of the Hodges and Farstad text (cited below), and the Robinson and Pierpoint text. Depending on which modern critical text is taken as an exemplar of the Alexandrian text-type, then this will differ from the Hodges and Farstad text in around 6,500 readings (Wallace 1989).
To give a feel for the difference between the Byzantine form of text and the Eclectic text, which is mainly Alexandrian in character, of 800 variation units in the Epistle of James
collected by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research, the Byzantine and Eclectic texts are in agreement in 731 of the places (a rate of 92.3%). Many of the 69 disagreements involve differences in word order and other variants that do not appear as translatable differences in English versions. According to the preface to the New King James Version
of the Bible, the Textus Receptus
, the Alexandrian text-type
and the Byzantine text-type are 85% identical (that is, of the variations that occur in any manuscript, only 15% actually differ between these three).
The Byzantine type is also found in modern Greek Orthodox
editions. A new scholarly edition of the Byzantine Text of John's gospel, (funded by the United Bible Societies
in response to a request from Eastern Orthodox Scholars), was begun in Birmingham
, UK. and in 2007, as a result of these efforts, The Gospel According to John in the Byzantine Tradition was issued.
Von Soden divided manuscripts of the Byzantine text into five groups:
Since the discovery of the Papyrus 45
, Papyrus 46, and Papyrus 66
, proof is available that occasionally the Byzantine text preserves a reading that dates from early witness. Examples:
Luke 10:39
Luk 10:42
Luke 11:33
John 10:29
John 11:32
John 13:26
Acts 17:13
1 Corinthians 9:7
Ephesians 5:9
Philippians 1:14
Other examples of Byzantine readings were found in p66 in John 1:32; 3:24; 4:14.51; 5:8; 6:10.57; 7:3.39; 8:41.51.55; 9:23; 10:38; 12:36; 14:17. This supports the views of scholars such as Harry Sturz and Maurice Robinson that the roots of the Byzantine text may go back to a very early date; although Bruce Metzger points out that this cannot be taken to demonstrate that these readings were in the original text. Some authors have interpreted this as a rehabilitation of Textus Receptus. Many of these readings have substantial support from other text-types and they are not distinctively Byzantine. Daniel Wallace found only two distinctively papyrus-Byzantine agreements. The strongest Sturzs point is omission in Philippians 1:14, the reading adopted in NA26/UBS.

Manuscripts of the Byzantine text
For some time following the fourth century different types of text were current in the East, but at the end the Byzantine text "almost wholly displaced the rest."

The form of the Byzantine text found in the earliest witnesses is not a monolithic whole, and sometimes differs from a Byzantine sub-group of manuscripts that proliferated after the 11th century.

Exegesis
Exegesis is a critical explanation or interpretation of a text, especially a religious text. Traditionally the term was used primarily for exegesis of the Bible; however, in contemporary usage it has broadened to mean a critical explanation of any text, and the term "Biblical exegesis" is used...
. For example, Mark
Gospel of Mark
The Gospel According to Mark , commonly shortened to the Gospel of Mark or simply Mark, is the second book of the New Testament. This canonical account of the life of Jesus of Nazareth is one of the three synoptic gospels. It was thought to be an epitome, which accounts for its place as the second...

, the Byzantine form of the verse avoids the difficulty that might be adduced were it to be concluded that Mark was presenting a factual inaccuracy.
Another characteristic is the grammar (f.e. οι δε ειπον, in Alexandrian text: οι δε ειπαν) and the different order of words. For example:

Mark 1:9
- εις τον Ιορδανην υπο Ιωανου – codices ﬡ, B, D
- υπο Ιωανου εις τον Ιορδανην – codices A, W, and manuscripts of the Byzantine text-type
Also, the Byzantine text does not contain verses included by Textus Receptus: Luke 17:36; Acts 8:37; 15:34.
There are no consistent Byzantine witnesses amongst the early New Testament papyri. Nevertheless, instances of distinctive Byzantine readings are not unusual in the earliest texts — even though they otherwise conform more to other text-types or none. Hence, many (and possibly most) distinctive Byzantine readings are likely to be early in date. Two broad explanations have been offered for this observation:
- that the Byzantine text-type transmits a text closest to the primary form of the New Testament books; whose early manuscript witnesses have not survived, as this text-type predominated in regions where the climate did not favour the preservation of papyrus;
- that the Byzantine text represents a consistent exercise in textual compilation and correction from around the 4th century, the editors having eclectically selected those readings from a range of early manuscripts, that best conformed to their presupposed standards of the characteristics to be expected in the New Testament text.

The standard Byzantine text used by Greek Orthodox Church is supported by late minuscule manuscripts and the oldest manuscripts were written in the 9th century. The early Byzantine text is different from the late Byzantine text in 3000 places and it is near to the Alexandrian text. Early Byzantine families as family E and Π, Kurt Aland did not classified as the Byzantine manuscripts, and some of them he placed to the Category III of the Greek New Testament manuscripts. All manuscripts with standard Byzantine text Aland placed to Category V.

The New Testament of the King James Version of the Bible was translated from editions of what was to become the Textus Receptus. If the "Majority Text" of Hodges and Farstad is taken to be the standard for the Byzantine text-type, then The Textus Receptus differs from this in 1,838 Greek readings, of which 1,005 represent "translatable" differences.

These critics include the editors of the Hodges and Farstad text (cited below), and the Robinson and Pierpoint text. Depending on which modern critical text is taken as an exemplar of the Alexandrian text-type, then this will differ from the Hodges and Farstad text in around 6,500 readings (Wallace 1989).

Other examples of Byzantine readings were found in p66 in John 1:32; 3:24; 4:14.51; 5:8; 6:10.57; 7:3.39; 8:41.51.55; 9:23; 10:38; 12:36; 14:17. This supports the views of scholars such as Harry Sturz and Maurice Robinson that the roots of the Byzantine text may go back to a very early date; although Bruce Metzger points out that this cannot be taken to demonstrate that these readings were in the original text. Some authors have interpreted this as a rehabilitation of Textus Receptus. Many of these readings have substantial support from other text-types and they are not distinctively Byzantine. Daniel Wallace found only two distinctively papyrus-Byzantine agreements. The strongest Sturzs point is omission in Philippians 1:14, the reading adopted in NA26/UBS.
