In my episode with @joerogan last year I mentioned the Coherence Base Genealogical Method (CGBM), and how it's changing the way we understand the relationship between manuscripts. If you've ever heard of "Text Types" (Alexandrian; Western; Byzantine; Cesarean) discussed concerning the history of the New Testament text, then you should probably know that those categories are now almost completely abandoned in modern text criticism. Though serving a useful purpose, the idea of Text Types ended up flattening out the complexity they aimed to neatly categorize. Manuscript traditions are less like individual rivers (picture an Alexandrian River, a Western river, and a Byzantine river flowing beside but distinct to one another), and are more analogous to a marsh with main tributaries. With the textual waters of each main type bleed into one another. The liquid of manuscript agreements of one watercourse of witnesses in one set of readings spilling over via the middle marshy wetland into another waterway elsewhere. To better understand the subject here is a great article on what CBGM is and isn't by Greg Paulson, the co-editor of the Editio Critica Maior and sub-editor of the NA29 edition of the Greek New Testament. criticaltexts.com/the-one-with-t…
