1 | Where does the Shorter Ending belong? | Mark 16:20 | DocTrinsograce | 240560 | ||
Hi, James... Welcome to the forum! I listened to your youtube lectures on this subject today. It was very interesting. One of my hermeneutics professors made the same assertion, but I had forgotten all of the reasoning behind it. Do you know of any translations that take the bolder step of excluding this passage? In Him, Doc |

2 | Where does the Shorter Ending belong? | Mark 16:20 | James Snapp Jr | 240561 | ||
Hi Doc. Thanks for taking time to listen to the lecture. (There are a few lectures about Mark 16:9-20 that I've put on YouTube. Which one was it?) When you asked, "Do you know of any translations that take the bolder step of excluding this passage?", I figure that you must be referring to verses 9-20, not to the "Shorter Ending." Back in 1836, Granville Penn published "The Book of the New Covenant," and the author relied enormously on some recent research that included a collation of Vaticanus; as a result, his text of Mark stopped at 16:8. (And in John, the story of the adulteress was absent.) And somebody -- I forget, at the moment, if it was Goodspeed or Lightfoot -- made a NT in which, in at least one edition, Mark's text stopped at 16:8. The RSV when initially published also stopped Mark's text at 16:8; verses 9-20 were only contained in a footnote. And I've heard that the most recent edition of the "New World Translation" used by the Watchtower Society cult has taken that option too. But for the most part, English translations that have had much popularity, for very long, have included Mark 16:9-20, in harmony with 99.9 percent of the Greek manuscripts of Mark, 99.9 percent of the Latin manuscripts of Mark, and 99.5 percent of the Syriac manuscripts of Mark, plus about 40 patristic citations from the era before the fall of the Roman Empire. |

Hi, James... The lectures I listened to were the two part Patristic Evidence set. This morning I am listening to your review of "Bible Secrets Revealed." In Him, Doc |
