Apostolic Fathers Greek-English Interlinear

by drmsheiser | Oct 5, 2011

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up on another cool new resource from Logos!

This interlinear of the early church fathers (Greek text and English translation in a searchable interlinear) just went on pre-pub ($29.95 for a limited time). You can read all about it at the Logos blog. (Thanks should go to Logos Greek data-slinger Rick Brannan who spearheaded the project and did the alignment).

In case you are unfamiliar with who these fathers are, here is the list of texts in the interlinear:

  • 1 Clement
  • 2 Clement
  • Epistles of Ignatius
  • Epistles of Ignatius to the Ephesians
  • Epistles of Ignatius to the Magnesians
  • Epistles of Ignatius to the Trallians
  • Epistles of Ignatius to the Romans
  • Epistles of Ignatius to the Philadelphians
  • Epistles of Ignatius to the Smyrnaeans
  • Epistles of Ignatius to Polycarp
  • The Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians
  • The Didache
  • The Epistle of Barnabas
  • The Shepherd of Hermas
  • The Martyrdom of Polycarp
  • The Epistle to Diognetus

    What edition is this based on, Lightfoot, or something newer like Holmes? If it is Lightfoot, why use such an old edition? And how valuable is this Interlinear from a textual critical view?

    Thanks,

      It’s the Lake edition; we could not obtain the license to the Holmes edition.

    Thanks for the mention, Mike! I should note that while the interlinear uses Kirsopp Lake’s edition, there are over 1300 notes in the text as well, some of which detail differences in available editions (Holmes, Lightfoot, Ehrman and Lake, primarily) where there are major differences.
