English New Testament according to Family 35
The English New Testament According to Family 35 is an English rendering of the New Testament translated specifically from the Family 35 form of the Byzantine Greek manuscript tradition, and it is distinguished on that basis from other English versions. Its scope is limited to the New Testament, its source language is Greek, and its translation philosophy is formal while being tied to a particular manuscript family rather than to an eclectic or critical text; it is classified as a fresh translation rather than a revision of an earlier English version. The Byzantine tradition to which Family 35 belongs comprises the large body of Greek manuscripts that circulated in the Greek-speaking East and underlies the printed texts used by earlier English translators. Within this catalogue the entry is included as a completeness backstop for coverage of English translation and revision families.
