A majority text ignores all aspects of a manuscript and counts all manuscripts as if they are identical.
Yes! The Word of God has to be identical. In the time of 1700 rears one text agrees with an other.
But the minority are contradict one with the other. Even if one or two of them are considered older from the majority this dont means nothing.Because if "the older is the best" then why the two oldest texts contradict one the other?
Anyway i have also "Alford, Westcott - Hort and Critical text but i dont give them the same trust as the original text.
God bless.
