Beskrivning
This study offers the first sustained examination of the Coherence-Based Genealogical Method (CBGM), a computerized method being used to edit the most widely-used editions of the Greek New Testament. Part one addresses the CBGM’s history and reception before providing a fresh statement of its principles and procedures. Parts two and three consider the method’s ability to recover the initial text and to delineate its history. A new portion of the global stemma is presented for the first time and important conclusions are drawn about the nature of the initial text, scribal habits, and the origins of the Byzantine text. A final chapter suggests improvements and highlights limitations. Overall, the CBGM is positively assessed but not without important criticisms and cautions.

Few could have analysed the Coherence Based Genealogical Method (CBGM) with as much clarity, precision and with as Peter Gurry. (...) Gurry's book contributes a number of important critical perspectives ... [it] is important because it reminds us that the results of the CBGM are determined by editorial choice and that textual criticism is not a formula to be solved, but a craft to be plied.Garrick Allen, Journal for the Study of the New Testament, 2019A landmark study of the CBGM, no NT scholar can afford to be without this clear, concise, critical, and courteous book.Peter R. Rodgers, The Catholic Biblical Review, 2019
