<p>Γράφω τούτους τοὺς λόγους ἐν τῷ γραφείῳ ὢν 💼, οὐ γὰρ εἰσιν πρᾶγματα πολλά μοι ποιῆσαι σήμερον. Χθὲς μὲν ἄνθρωπός τίς μοι ἐπὶ τῆς ἰστοχώρας καλουμένης Τουΐτερ 🐧 ἀγγελίαν ἔπεμψε καί μοι εἶπεν ὅτι Ἐθέλω τοὺς ὑπὸ σεαυτοῦ γεγραμμένους λόγους 💬 ἰδίᾳ ἐπανορθοῦν εἰ δοίης μοι ἐξουσίαν. Ταῦτα δ’ οὖν ἔλεγεν οὗτος ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὅτι δημοσίᾳ γράφω λόγους Ἑλληνιστί καὶ ὅτι οὔπ’ ἀγαθός εἰμι τῷ Ἑλληνιστὶ γράψαι καὶ οὖν ἔτ’ ἁμαρτάνω πολλάκις. Ἔλεγεν μὲν οὖν ἐγὼ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὡς ἀπόρκρισις ὅτι Σαφῶς δίδωμί σοι ἐξουσίαν τοῦτο πρᾶξαι. Ἐθέλε δ’ οὖν αὐτὸς ὅτι καὶ ἐγώ αὐτὸν ἐπανορθώσω ὅταν ἁμάρτῃ.</p>

<p>Μετὰ τὸ ἐργαζομένον· ἔσται δυσὶ ὥραις ⏳· οἴκοθεν ἐλεύσομαι. 🛖 Ἐν δὲ τῷ οἴκῳ τὸ δεῖπνον ἔδομαι 🍱 καὶ μετὰ τὸ φαγεῖν, ουἴσκι πίομαι 🥃 ἠγόρασα μὲν γὰρ τῇ ἑβδομάδι τῇ ἐσχάτῃ ουἴσκι τρία τῆς Σκωτίας 🏴.</p>

Ἔδει με καὶ δὲ τὰ ἱμάτια μου καθαρίζειν. Μετὰ ταῦτα ἐκάθισα καὶ κινηματογράφον βλέπων οὔσκι τι ἔπινον. Νῦν μετὰ τοῦ φίλου μου λαλῶ καὶ τοὺς λόγους τούτους γράφω.

<p>For, indeed, when one learns a foreign language, one tends to feel more closely connected to the culture behind said language, especially since — in my opinion — one cannot truly learn a foreign language without knowing at least something about the culture by which it is spoken. Therefore, I find the process of learning an ancient language and subsequently reading ancient texts akin to time travel; we may be unable to travel backwards in time — and, depending on whom you ask, we will <i>never</i> be able to do so —, but we can come close, namely by learning ancient languages. </p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>And whilst the reading of a modern reproduction of an ancient text allows you to get close to experiencing what is must have been like reading these texts back when they were first written, there is still quite a significant difference; modern reproductions of, for example, the New Testament use a very consistent, modern spelling with upper- and lowercase letters, accents, spaces, punctuation and more. All of these, however, are comparatively modern inventions and would not have been found in a text written in the 4<sup>th</sup> century AD. Instead, most texts at the time would not have had any punctuation or spaces between words, nor would there have been a distinction between upper- and lowercase letters; the script used by scribes at the time was a so-called uncial script, an all-majuscule script with no spaces or punctuation marks.</p>

<p>Uncial scripts were the norm for languages such as Latin and Greek for quite a significant amount of time, so that coming across them when attempting to read original texts on their original medium is almost definitely guaranteed. Therefore, to get an even more <q>proper</q> experience, one should really read the ancient texts the way they were actually written — and the Vaticanus Bible allows this. You can really imagine yourself being transported back in time, reading the codex as if it had just been written by a scribe and there is much more of a connection with the people of ancient times than there is when reading a modern reproduction.</p>

<h2 id="vaticanusbible">The Vaticanus Bible</h2>
|
||||
<p>Now that we have briefly explored the reasons behind my really enjoying this Bible, I believe it is time to more thoroughly explore it. Therefore, in the following section, you will be presented with some information on the book (who it was published and written by, what makes it special &c.) and plenty of photographs. </p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>General Information</h3>
|
||||
<p>This particular edition of the Codex Vaticanus was created by Benjamin Paul Kantor of <a href="https://koinegreek.com">KoineGreek.com</a>. There currently (as of March 10, 2022) exist two volumes of this Bible, one which includes the Gospels and another which includes Acts and the Epistles. Each of the volumes costs $39.99, but due to my not living in the US, I had to pay €49.50 by ordering it from the German Amazon. The edition that I currently own is the one which includes the Gospels — I may, at a later date, buy the second volume as well. </p>
