Re: Textual Criticism: A Caution

I wonder if perhaps at times the sentiments of list members might
override the letter of the B-Greek Law. I am intensely interested in
the Textual Criticism discussion that was developing, and I was very
disappointed at the prospect that the only way I might hear more is
to join another list and have to sort through a mass of arcana that
I'd rather avoid. I, for one, would like to see this discussion
continue here as long as it stays within bounds of decency and, by
virtue of its nature as very general rather than specific, meets a
Greek-related need not easily met elsewhere. Yes, I can buy the books
and spend hours working through them (as I have already done with
Metzger), which is something I need to do at any rate. But this was
shaping up to be a very helpful introduction and overview of the
current state of the question. May we reconsider?
