Bible Study Tools: Manuscripts, Scribes, Codex and More

We begin our study with understanding the timeline for the various documents that went into making the scriptures. Who were the Maseorite scribes? What is the Septuagint and why is it often called the LXX? Leningrad and Aleppo codex – why are they important?

Is it necessary to know these thing? Nope.  But…. if you would like to be more connected to the Bible that you read?  Want to know more about Torah and who really wrote it? What were the Jewish traditions during the time that Jesus and the Apostles lived?  Are there 4 different endings to the book of Mark? And now that new discoveries (past decade) have found the Hebrew versions of the Gospels… will your Bible change?

This is a beginners class but everyone is welcome!
