Texte Zum Johannesevangelium (German, Electronic book text)

This second volume of the Gospels contains approx. 1,600 comparative texts on the Gospel of John on the basis of the sources in J. J. Wettstein (ed.), Novum Testamentum Graecum, Amsterdam 1751/52. In addition to the most important parallels of Wettstein, numerous other texts are included. All comparative texts as a rule are extensively cited in German, and they are situated within their context. The central parallels are added either in their Greek or Latin original text. Modern standard editions serve as the textual basis so that the passages cited can easily be found by the user. Each text is preceded by a short introduction which clarifies the context of the passage. Finally, notes are made available to the reader which allow a better understanding of the text cited. The volume concludes with a supplementary listing of the cited Greek and Latin authors and their works, an index of passages, as well as indexes of concepts and subjects. Volume I/1 of the Neuer Wettstein (Texts on the Synoptic Gospels) is being prepared at the Corpus Hellenisticum in Halle and will presumably be published in 2002. Volume III (Acts) will conclude the complete work.
