27th revised edition

Edited at the Institute for New Testament Textual Research Münster/Westphalia under the direction of Barbara and Kurt Aland.

The Greek text of the New Testament is presented with a detailed critical apparatus at the bottom of the page, and detailed cross references to other passages at the margin. The Greek text is identical to that of the 26th edition, but the critical apparatus and the appendices have been thoroughly revised. Those textual witnesses which are essential to the constitution and the history of the text are more precisely selected and clearly arranged. A new appendix deals with special information regarding the source material. The new introduction with useful explanations is in German and English facilitates access to the volume. A separate key to sigla is included.
