Codex Zacynthius is a book that contains Greek palimpsest fragments of the Gospel of Saint Luke, compiled by Samuel Prideaux Tregelles in 1861. A palimpsest is a manuscript that has been overwritten with new text, erasing the old text. In this case, the original text was the Gospel of Saint Luke, and the new text was written over it, but the original text can still be seen faintly. Tregelles discovered these fragments on the island of Zakynthos (also known as Zacynthius) in Greece, hence the name of the book. The fragments contain portions of the Gospel of Saint Luke in Greek, and Tregelles provides a transcription and translation of the text. The book is a valuable resource for scholars studying early Christian manuscripts and the history of the Gospel of Saint Luke.Obtained In The Island Of Zante, By The Late General Colin Macaulay.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

British biblical textual critic Samuel Prideaux Tregelles (1813-75) reflects in this 1854 work on editions of the Greek New Testament since Erasmus. He describes his own critical methods and collations, which brought clarity to the developing field. This account still informs textual criticism.

Samuel Prideaux Tregelles (1813-1875) was a Cornish-born Biblical scholar who travelled to major libraries all over Europe to study ancient manuscripts with the aim of publishing a more reliable Greek New Testament than had been available to Luther, Tyndale and their successors. The 1844 edition of the Book of Revelation reissued here was his first major publication, and announced his larger project. It contains the Greek text, an English translation, and a meticulous critical apparatus which provides a window into nineteenth-century textual criticism, a burgeoning field in which scholars including Lachmann and Tischendorf were also active. Tregelles gives a detailed history of the printed editions of Revelation and shows how he went beyond the received text, examining more than forty thousand variants to establish the most authoritative version. Tregelles' criteria for evaluating the reliability of manuscripts, described in his Introduction, remain of interest to Biblical scholars today.
