The Gospel of Matthew: A Polyglot (Tapa Dura)

Libro 50 in Polyglot Bibles

A polyglot Bible is a single edition of Scripture that prints multiple ancient textual traditions side-by-side on the same page or facing pages, so that scholars can directly compare how different traditions render the same verses. It is both a scholarly and teaching tool designed to expose textual variants, illuminate interpretive differences, and make the structure of the biblical text visible across languages in a way no single-language edition can achieve.

This is a new polyglot for the Gospel of Matthew. It aligns across versions at a verse level, even when the chapters and verses numbering varies across traditions. It is designed as a tool for teaching textual criticism to students and for scholars and interested non-specialists wanting to browse differences and study the diverse textual traditions of the Bible.

This polyglot aligns:

• The Syriac Peshitta (British and Foreign Bible Society 1905 edition)
• The SBL Greek New Testament (SBLGNT)
• The Oxford Vulgate (editio minor, 1911) with added macrons
• The World English Bible (WEB)
