There are very few people in my life that have influenced my thinking and confidence (in a positive way!) as much as Daniel Wallace. We have done much to expose you to him here at Parchment and Pen, as he blogs from time to time (ummm….Dan, we need a new post!), but I am very excited about the new resource his organization, The Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts, is offering. These are short clips on the discipline and study of textual criticism (TC) of the New Testament. He covers everything from the basics of TC to the biggest problem passages in the New Testament.

The only problem I have with Dan is that these videos are particular to Apple (iTunes) and that is right in line with his Apple cult mentality. But these are too good for me to let that get in the way (dine with the devil to get a steak).

      I am so excited about this! I saw some of them last night. They are GREAT! I can’t wait to see the rest and then begin a study of Textual criticism!
