Chester Beatty Papyri and CSNTM

A six-person team from the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts (CSNTM) digitized all the Greek biblical papyri and Greek New Testament manuscripts at the Chester Beatty Library (CBL) during the summer of 2013. The Chester Beatty papyri, published in the 1930s and 1950s, are some of the oldest and most important biblical manuscripts known to exist. The New Testament papyri at the CBL include the oldest manuscript of Paul’s letters (c. 200 CE), the oldest manuscript of Mark’s Gospel and portions of the other Gospels and Acts (third century), and the oldest manuscript of Revelation (third century). The photographs taken by CSNTM reveal some text that has not been seen before.
