Religion:Patriarchal Text
The Patriarchal Text of 1904, originally officially published as The New Testament, Approved by the Great Church of Christ (Greek: Η Καινή Διαθήκη εγκρίσει της Μεγάλης του Χριστού Εκκλησίας),[1][2] also known as the Patriarchal Text,[3] or Antoniades-text,[3] or simply PT, is a New Testament text published by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople on February 22, 1904.[4][1] The text-type is Byzantine and uses 116 documents used in the Orthodox Church lectionary,[1] 45 of which from are Mount Athos and Constantinople, with the rest coming from Athens and Jerusalem.[1] The source texts used date from 9-16th centuries, with a majority coming from the 10-14th centuries.[1] The original text is entirely in Greek, but translations can be found in English. The Patriarchal Text is not the solely used nor solely authoritative Greek New Testament text used by the Eastern Orthodox Church.[5]
History
With the growth of textual criticism in the 18th and 19th century,[1] and particularly the rival eclectic text-type,[4] the Patriarch Constantine V of Constantinople created a committee in 1899[1] to examine its own tradition.[4] The committee consisted of Metropolitan Michael Kleovoulos of Sardis, Metropolitan Apostolos Christodoulou of Stavroupoli and Professor Vasileios Antoniades of the Theological School of Chalki, who personally studied the 45 texts from Mount Athos and Constantinople.[1] The commission aimed for the creation of a standardized New Testament in the Greek Language to reconstruct the ancient documents from the Church's ecclesiastical history.[4] Although commonly cited as being published in 1904,[4][3][1][6] later revisions had been made in 1907[3] and 1912,[4][1] the latter made by Professor Antoniades.[4] Today the Patriarchal text is commonly used in Greece, with a modified text fixing errors from the 1912 version being published under Apostoliki Diakonia,[1][7] which is the official publishing house of the Church of Greece,[7][8] with other publishers distributing the Patriarchal Text as well.[1]
