A question: what is the date of the first physical copy of any of these texts?
Much discussion about the temporal distance between the described events and the writers, but what about the distance between the writers and the text we know?
Any hope earlier copies will surface?
- amanaplanacanal 2y agoThe Wikipedia article on "dating the Bible" list dates for the earliest known fragmentsb of the various books. If you want earliest complete copies it would be later than those dates.
