Lets put some of these other subject to bed first. you are spanning 3 different Manuscript subjects.

1You made the assertion that the papyri were the only manuscripts of the NT
Is this true yes or no and do you understand now that the papyri are not the only form of hand written manuscript?

2 the subject matter of the usage and age was open ignoring your first mistake. We need to close the matter of your first mistake before we go in to the second and now this third

3 the third being is you are now asking for source material of the NT..

Again you clearly do not have an understand of this material either otherwise the question would be different. here you assume one complete source.

not the case the NT has several sources. these sources are called codices. they are a collection of manuscripts from across the spectrum of avaible manuscripts. Some are selected for age others clarity other still preuvenuance. there are several different codacees based on which translation IE which NT version you are reading from.

If you want to discuss this new subject put the first 2 to bed be conceding where you were misinformed.


Let's start over, okay?  (If, of course, such is even possible with you.)  If you do not want to give your views on the earliest sources of the New Testament, well, that's fine.  I do not really have any more to say to you if that is the case.  Paper was, of course, invented in China, but medieval Europe used, for the most part, parchment.  The New Testament was written, originally, in Greek, all of it; Jesus and his followers, of course, spoke Aramaic.  Later on scribes began translating and copying the New Testament into Latin, Coptic, Syriac, etc., but, the modern reconstruction of the New Testament that modern scholars all use is based upon the original Greek manuscripts, not, of course, of the original New Testament documents (none of which exist), but the 2nd, 3rd and 4th century Greek manuscripts.
