The title on the cover for the [[Textus Receptus]] printed by the [[Trinitarian Bible Society]] is Η ΚΑΙΝΗ ΔΙΑΘΗΚΗ which is [[Greek]] for ''The [[New Testament]]'' or ''The New Covenant''. The [[1598 AD\|1598]] [[Greek]] [[Textus Receptus]] of [[Theodore Beza\|Beza]] and the [[1525 AD\|1525]] [[Hebrew]] [[Masoretic Text]] of [[Jacob ben Hayyim ibn Adonijah]], are the closest printed editions of the [[Greek]] and [[Hebrew]] texts. However the unprinted edition underlying the KJV is the most accurate form of the TR, departing from Beza in about 20 places. Had the KJV translators published this edition, there would be no [[King James Onlyism\|King James Only Movement]] and KJV and TR positions would follow that edition. Scrivener tried to produce this text but it falls short in some minor places. We believe that the King James Version is the most accurate representation of the Textus Receptus and is without translational error. Any translation faithful to this text is THE word of God by default. We do not believe that the [[King James Version]] has any secondary inspiration. Our hope is to have the "[[Textus Receptus\|TR]]" translated into every language and to help revive a trust once again in the true words of God.

-	Modern "[[Textual criticism\|textual criticism]]" is focused on a narrowing of the field to a few corrupted and rejected manuscripts sidestepping the huge amount of [[Greek]] and [[Latin]] manuscripts and the early church witnesses as unimportant, only to be used when they can be referenced to try to give some support to the Vaticanus primacy corruption. It really is an anachronism fallacy (false definition) to speak of [[Erasmus]], Stephanus, and Beza, to be doing textual criticism~~.

They based themselves on mostly the Greek and Latin manuscripts and the early church witnesses with some faith-consistent logical and grammatical type of internal evidence considerations.

	[[Textus Receptus]] ([[Latin]]: "[[Received Text\|received text]]") is the name retroactively given to the succession of printed [[Greek language]] texts of the [[New Testament]] which constituted the textual base for the original [[German]] [[Luther Bible]], for the translation of the [[New Testament]] into [[English]] by [[William Tyndale]] ([[1526 AD\|1526]]), [[Myles Coverdale]]’s [[Coverdale Bible\|Bible]] ([[1535 AD\|1535]]), [[Matthew's Bible]] ([[1537 AD\|1537]]), [[The Great Bible]] ([[1539 AD\|1539]]), [[The Geneva Bible]] ([[1557 AD\|1557]] - [[1560 AD\|60]]), The [[Bishops' Bible]] ([[1568 AD\|1568]]), and the [[King James Version]] ([[1611 AD\|1611]]), and for most other [[Reformation]]-era [[New Testament]] translations throughout Western and Central Europe such as the Spanish Reina-Valera translation and the Czech Bible of Kralice. The [[Textus Receptus]] has been translated into hundreds of languages. ''(See Also [[Article: The Word of God for All Nations by Phil Stringer\|The Word of God for All Nations]])'' The origin of the term "[[Textus Receptus]]" comes from the publisher’s preface to the [[1633 AD\|1633]] edition produced by [[Abraham Elzevir]] and his nephew [[Bonaventure Elzevir\|Bonaventure]] who were printers at Leiden:		[[Textus Receptus]] ([[Latin]]: "[[Received Text\|received text]]") is the name retroactively given to the succession of printed [[Greek language]] texts of the [[New Testament]] which constituted the textual base for the original [[German]] [[Luther Bible]], for the translation of the [[New Testament]] into [[English]] by [[William Tyndale]] ([[1526 AD\|1526]]), [[Myles Coverdale]]’s [[Coverdale Bible\|Bible]] ([[1535 AD\|1535]]), [[Matthew's Bible]] ([[1537 AD\|1537]]), [[The Great Bible]] ([[1539 AD\|1539]]), [[The Geneva Bible]] ([[1557 AD\|1557]] - [[1560 AD\|60]]), The [[Bishops' Bible]] ([[1568 AD\|1568]]), and the [[King James Version]] ([[1611 AD\|1611]]), and for most other [[Reformation]]-era [[New Testament]] translations throughout Western and Central Europe such as the Spanish Reina-Valera translation and the Czech Bible of Kralice.

-	::''Textum ergo habes, nunc ab omnibus receptum: in quo nihil immutatum aut corruptum damus.''

Translated ''"so you hold the text, now received by all, in which nothing corrupt."''

	The two words, "''textum''" and "''receptum''", were modified from the accusative to the nominative case to render [[Textus Receptus\|textus receptus]]. Over time, this term has been retroactively applied to [[Desiderius Erasmus\|Erasmus]]’ editions, as his work served as the basis of others that followed. Many supporters of the [[Textus Receptus]] will name any manuscript which agrees with the [[Textus Receptus]] [[Greek language\|Greek]] as a "[[Textus Receptus]]" type manuscript. This type of association can also apply to early church quotations and language versions.

	The [[Textus Receptus]] edited by [[Frederick Henry Ambrose Scrivener]], and first published in [[1881 AD\|1881]], was based upon the [[1598 AD\|1598]] of Beza, but departs in 190 places (see [[190 Variations in Scrivener’s 1881 Greek New Testament from Beza's 1598 Textus Receptus]]), following at times, earlier readings of [[Desiderius Erasmus\|Erasmus]] and [[Robert Estienne\|Stephanus]], and sometimes following the printing errors of the original [[1611 AD\|1611]] [[Authorized Version]]. The title on the cover for the [[Textus Receptus]] printed by the [[Trinitarian Bible Society]] is Η ΚΑΙΝΗ ΔΙΑΘΗΚΗ which is [[Greek]] for ''The [[New Testament]]'' or ''The New Covenant''. The [[1598 AD\|1598]] [[Greek]] [[Textus Receptus]] of [[Theodore Beza\|Beza]] and the [[1525 AD\|1525]] [[Hebrew]] [[Masoretic Text]] of [[Jacob ben Hayyim ibn Adonijah]], are the closest printed editions of the [[Greek]] and [[Hebrew]] texts. However the unprinted edition underlying the KJV is the most accurate form of the TR, departing from Beza in about 20 places. Had the KJV translators published this edition, there would be no [[King James Onlyism\|King James Only Movement]] and KJV and TR positions would follow that edition. Scrivener tried to produce this text but it falls short in some minor places. We believe that the King James Version is the most accurate representation of the Textus Receptus and is without translational error. Any translation faithful to this text is THE word of God by default. We do not believe that the [[King James Version]] has any secondary inspiration. Our hope is to have the "[[Textus Receptus\|TR]]" translated into every language and to help revive a trust once again in the true words of God. This site also exposes corrupt [[Greek]] and [[Hebrew]] texts and versions based upon them.

-	Modern "[[Textual criticism\|textual criticism]]" is focused on a narrowing of the field to a few corrupted and rejected manuscripts sidestepping the huge amount of [[Greek]] and [[Latin]] manuscripts and the early church witnesses as unimportant, only to be used when they can be referenced to try to give some support to the Vaticanus primacy corruption. It really is an anachronism fallacy (false definition) to speak of [[Erasmus]], Stephanus, and Beza, to be doing textual criticism~~. Since~~ their value were in general opposite those of the Griesbach to Hort to Metzger to Wallace confusions. They based themselves on mostly the Greek and Latin manuscripts and the early church witnesses with some faith-consistent logical and grammatical type of internal evidence considerations. This is essentially, the opposite of "textual criticism" as used today which has a bias presupposition towards Vaticanus and Sinaiticus.	+	Modern "[[Textual criticism\|textual criticism]]" is focused on a narrowing of the textual field to a few corrupted and rejected manuscripts sidestepping the huge amount of [[Greek]] and [[Latin]] manuscripts and the early church witnesses as unimportant, only to be used when they can be referenced to try to give some support to the Vaticanus and Sinaiticus primacy corruption.

They based themselves on mostly the Greek and Latin manuscripts and the early church witnesses with some faith-consistent logical and grammatical type of internal evidence considerations. This is essentially, the exact opposite of "textual criticism" as used today which has a bias presupposition towards Vaticanus and Sinaiticus, which were either unknown or rejected by almost the entirety of the church until modern times.
