The Byzantine Text Version follows an “optimal equivalence” philosophy of translation, employing a literary style that is reminiscent of the Tyndale-King James legacy while flowing smoothly and naturally in modern English. It is translated from the Byzantine (Majority) Greek text edited by Robinson and Pierpont.
The Text-Critical English New Testament is an edition of the Byzantine Text Version that documents translatable differences found in eleven editions of the Greek New Testament, including Nestle-Aland, SBL, Tyndale House, Editio Critica Maior, Westcott-Hort, Scrivener, Stephanus, Family 35, Hodges and Farstad, the Greek Orthodox Church text edited by Basileios Antoniades, and Robinson and Pierpont's alternate Byzantine readings. Translatable differences between the K and Αν manuscript families in Revelation are also documented. Manuscript percentages are listed for variants that have been fully collated.
