20th April, 1044, and was written by one John, a monk, in small quarto. In a few remarkable readings it stands quite alone ; but in a general way it supports those of the prin- cipal uncials A. B. C. D. E. Against the Received Text. An idea has not unnaturally gained ground from time to time amongst scholars, some of them very eminent men, that the true representatives of the ancient Text of the New Testament are to be found in the oldest codices extant. Bentley's views on this subject are well... known. He expressed his belief that the oldest MSS. Of the Greek original and of Jerome's Latin version coincide in all points, even the minutest. No one need wonder at a strong agreement subsisting between these in a general way ; but experience has shewn the fallacy of expecting anything like a fulfilment so exact as that contemplated. Lachmann (who died in 1851) rejected all but the very few ancient documents in carrying out his scheme of restoring the sacred Text to the condition in which it existed during the fourth century, regardless whether the sense produced be good or bad, likely or unlikely.
