NT Transcripts: A Transcript page

This is an example of what you see when you access a transcript. At the top, you will have a View by Page link. This allows you to see the transcript in the layout of the manuscript, i.e. in multiple columns, as the case may be, and with line breaks in the corresponding places.

Below that, you have links that allow you to quickly move to the other chapters of the book (in the default mode, called View by Chapter), or to the other pages of the manuscript (in View by Page mode).

In the transcript’s text, hyphens mean that the text is not contained in the manuscript (part of manuscript physically missing). Dots between square brackets mean that whole lines are illegible. Whenever one or more letters are legible, the rest of the line is supplied by the editors (red color). If the text expected here doesn’t fit, red numbers are used to indicate the number of characters that correspond to the space available. Underdots indicate that the characters can’t be identified with certainty in the manuscript. Green links indicate that corrections have been made to the manuscript. Moving over green links brings up small windows telling you about alterations by later hands. The image above shows the small window that pops up if the mouse pointer hovers over the green word in 1 Joh 1:5 in this transcript. It shows the alterations that correctors one and two (C1, C2)have made to the first hand’s text (*) on the same physical copy.

If you click on a verse number, a collation of that verse based on the new transcripts will appear in the lower part of the window.
