Textual Research on the Psalms and Gospels / Recherches textuelles sur les psaumes et les evangiles—Papers From the Tbilisi Colloquium on the Editing and History of Biblical Manuscripts; Actes du Coll

Biblical scholars present 15 papers, seven in English and eight in French, looking at research into the texts of the four gospels and the Psalms, with an emphasis on versions in Georgian. The topics include the Old Georgian Psalter and the titles of the psalms, the ending of Mark's gospel and the presentation of the variants in the Marc multilingue edition, Luke-Acts and the problem of editing a test with a multiple textual tradition, the problem of establishing the recensions of the Georgian version of the gospels, the manuscripts of Georgian translation of the gospels from the Black Mountains, the manuscript Anbandidi, and fragments of St. John's gospel in the language of the Caucasian Albanians.
