Following intensive preparatory work, the Fifth Edition of the UBS Greek New Testament ("UBS 5") has now been published! The most widely used edition of the Greek New Testament worldwide is now available in a revised, improved edition.
The readings of the newly discovered Papyri 117 - 127 have been incorporated into this edition, opening up interesting perspectives—particularly for the Acts of Apostles. It is now displayed in the apparatus, where selected modern Bible translations (English, German, French, Spanish) are based on a variant reading.
A special focus of the revision was on the Catholic Epistles, making this new edition consistent with the Second Edition of the "Editio Critica Maior" and the 28th Edition of the Nestle-Aland Novum Testamentum Graece. This led to more than 30 modifications in the reading text and in a new selection of witnesses for the textual apparatus.
