Zechariah's horse visions and angelic intermediaries : translation, allusion, and transmission in Early Judaism
In this article, I examine the interplay of transmission and exegesis in Zechariah’s
textual history, analyzing the strategies that early interpreters employed to create
coherence in a difficult text. I use Zechariah's horse visions as examples, exploring their
presentation in the early versions and the Book of Revelation. The following examination
explores the form of Zechariah used by these ancient interpreters and the habits of reading
that are implied in their presentation of reused material. The evidence suggests that,
by the late Second Temple period, the majority of readers conceptualized Zech 1:8 and
6:1-5 as coreferential visions and that this linking was representative of a larger strategy
of coherence. This strategy is also part of a wider tradition of correlating Zechariah’s
horses with other heavenly figures in the Hebrew Bible, a tradition that is most prevalent
in Targum Jonathan.https://catholicbiblical.org/publications/cbq2018-10-01am2018Ancient Language

Transcription Guidelines - Annotating the New Testament: Codex H, Euthalian Traditions, and the Humanities project
The major outcome of Annotating the New Testament: Codex H, Euthalian Traditions, and the Humanities project is a new diplomatic edition and translation of GA 015, the earliest witness to the Euthalian Tradition. Using new images made of the folia of GA 015 in Paris, Torino, and Mt Athos, we will create two new independent transcriptions of the manuscript. These transcriptions will be reconciled by a third person. Our edition will be published online and in print alongside new multispectral images created by holding institutions and the Early Manuscripts Electronic Library (EMEL). We have uploaded new accurate colour images to the NTVMR and processed images for the ink transfer folia that we have identified. When transcribing, use these images and the raw spectral images that are available in the project’s shared file
Digital tools for working with New Testament manuscripts
: This article critically examines the functionalities and significance of three prominent digital tools
that have become central to the study of Greek New Testament manuscripts. The design, functionalities,
and significance of the New Testament Virtual Manuscript Room (NTVMR), the Center for the Study of
New Testament Manuscripts (CSNTM) digital library, and the Pinakes database have a hand in shaping the
research questions of the field. As such, it is important to understand what these tools do, how they function,
and how they might develop further to address the needs of the field. The analysis of these tools leads to
fundamental questions about using digital representations as proxies for primary sources, challenges for
managing the materiality of artefactual and digital objects, the collaborative nature of digital scholarship,
and the implicit interpretations of the Greek New Testament tradition inherent in digital workspaces
