“Bringing scientific textual criticism to the masses”

Statistical Restoration (SR) Greek New Testament

The SR is a computer-generated Greek New Testament designed to reflect the most probable text based on statistical analysis using the earliest manuscript evidence with a reasoned eclecticism approach. This represents a fundamental paradigm shift in the field of textual criticism where subjectivity and theological bias of human editors is replaced with more objective statistical and computational methods guided by the principles of Scientific Textual Criticism. The SR is released under a Creative Commons open license (CC BY 4.0) and is available as a free download in several formats from GitHub. More information about the SR can be found in its Introduction and this video. Statistical Restoration work flow
