Review of 'A New Approach to Textual Criticism' on 'Storygraph'
5 stars
A textbook (in the best sense of the term) which leads the reader gently through the theory and practice of CBGM. Although it presupposes little, I can't imagine it would be easy going without some prior understanding of New Testament textual criticism (a reading of Metzger or Aland & Aland, for example). The examples presented are clear and helpful and there are a glossary and a fairly extensive annotated bibliography which thoughtfully notes works which are the best next steps. There's no index but the book is logically organized and brief enough that the lack probably won't be felt by many.
