Looking at all those quotes together, it seems to me that Jerome is taking issue with what people wrote claiming the authority and the pen of Lucian and not with Lucian himself.Demianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03098425683385627645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346409181794331060.post-90175288521961229582022-10-31T13:11:46.789-04:002022-10-31T13:11:46.789-04:00Demian,
Let's look at Jerome's three brie...Demian, <br />Let's look at Jerome's three brief comments that mention Lucian (I'm drawing from Metzger for this info):<br />(1) ""manuscripts which are associated with the names of Lucian and Hesychius, the authority of which is perversely maintained by a few disputatious persons."<br /><br />(2) "It is obvious that these writers could not emend anything in the Old Testament after the labors of the Seventy; and it was useless to correct the New, for versions of Scripture already exist in the languages of many nations which show that their additions are false."<br /><br />(3) (from his Preface to Chronicles] "Alexandria and Egypt in their [copies of the] Septuagint praise Hesychius as author; Constantinople to Antioch approves the copies [containing the text] of Lucian the martyr; the middle provinces between these read the<br />Palestinian codices edited by Origen, which Eusebius and Pamphilus published."<br /><br />In this third comment Jerome is referring to OT [LXX] MSS, not necessarily NT MSS or Gospels MSS.<br /><br />For my thoughts on Hort's "Lucianic Recension" theory, see<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zW8EGDGtCnI (Lecture 12).<br /><br />Metzger presents another comment of Jerome which mentions Lucian:<br />"You must know that there is one edition which Origen and Eusebius of Caesarea and all the<br />Greek commentators call Koine, that is common and widespread, and is by most people now called Lucianic; and there is another, that of the Septuagint, which is found in the manuscripts of the Hexapla, and has been faithfully translated by us into Latin." <br />Again this pertains to texts which had the LXX's parameters, and not necessarily anything else.<br /><br /><br /><br /> James Snapp Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09493891380752272603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346409181794331060.post-84161697026384812322022-10-31T00:01:07.519-04:002022-10-31T00:01:07.519-04:00The 3-column feature is a point of similarity but ...The 3-column feature is a point of similarity but still one would have to explain what are the false additions that Lucian introduced in the gospels that cannot be found in the "versions of scripture which already exist in the language of many nations". Jerome seems to be referring here to something major, additions that any church father in the West, the East or in Alexandria would have easily recognized as spurious and not just about textual variants between the Byzantine and the Alexandrian manuscripts. On the one hand, certainly Lucian did not create byzantine readings that are confirmed by the antenicene fathers before him or by Jerome himself who could tell what were those additions and would not have included them in the vulgate or in his commentary on Matthew. The whole Lucian recension theory by Hort falls apart right here. On the other hand, if one could find those unique additions in codex Vaticanus that cannot be found in any other version, then the theory could begin to have some plausibility.Demianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03098425683385627645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346409181794331060.post-6703344704700923902022-10-30T18:03:18.877-04:002022-10-30T18:03:18.877-04:00In my CBQ article (2022) I point out that Sinaitic...In my CBQ article (2022) I point out that Sinaiticus has Priscus instead of Crispus at 1 Cor 1:14, and that “An Exposition of the Chapters of the Acts of the Apostles,” attributed to Pamphilius, also has Priscus instead of Crispus. Perhaps you can build on this observation.Richard Fellowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06777460488456330838noreply@blogger.com
