| Summary: | Basic to the New Testament text-critical criterion that the reading ""which is best in accord with the general language and style of an author is most probably the original, is an expectancy that an author will be consistent in his use of language and style. This article challanges this presumption, by arguing that the complex literary origin of the New Testament documents makes it impossible to expect a consistent use of linguistic and stylistic features in the documents which constitute the New Testament. |
