The Greek New Testament

The New Testament in the original Greek. The text revised by Brooke Foss Westcott, D.D., and Fenton John Anthony Hort, D.D. New York. Harper & Brothers, Franklin Square (1885).

Brooke Foss Westcott (1825–1901) and Fenton John Anthony Hort (1828–1892) were prominent 19th-century British biblical scholars and theologians renowned for their groundbreaking contributions to New Testament textual criticism. Together, they collaborated over 28 years to produce The New Testament in the Original Greek, a critical edition first published in two volumes in 1881 and 1882, which sought to reconstruct the earliest attainable form of the Greek text based on rigorous manuscript analysis.

The New Testament (Ἡ Καινὴ Διαθήκη) is the second principal division of the Christian Bible, consisting of 27 books composed primarily in Koine Greek between approximately AD 50 and AD 150, which serve as the foundational scriptures for Christianity alongside the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament).

The Gospel According to John

The Gospel of John (Κατά Ὶοάννην Ευαγγέλιον) is one of the four canonical gospels in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. It is formally anonymous within the text but traditionally attributed to John the Apostle, identified as "the disciple whom Jesus loved" and an eyewitness source (John 21:24). Modern scholarship debates this attribution, with some proposing authorship by a Johannine community or another figure such as John the Elder, while the final form of the text is commonly dated to the 90s AD, possibly in Ephesus. The book's explicit purpose is to inspire belief that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, so that readers "may have life in his name" (John 20:31).
