The Companion Bible

E.W. Bullinger’s KJV study Bible in PDF form. Complete with the marginal notes and appendixes in original form. Although a great study reference, Bullinger was a dispensationalist and we do not share this theological view.

SHROUD OF TURIN RESOURCES

"An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." (Matt. 12:39-40)

Of course this sign was fulfilled in Christ's resurrection, but we also believe the shroud to be a tangible artifact of this sign. In fact, it is the single most studied artifact in human history, and we know more about it today than we ever have before. However, even if it gives evidence to our faith and Christ's resurrection, it does not testify of it. For it is written: “If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead,” (Luke 16:31). Below are some resources where you can study it for yourself.

MANUSCRIPT RESOURCES

• NEW TESTAMENT 

The New Testament has been preserved in more manuscripts than any other ancient work of literature. There are just under 6000 Greek NT manuscripts, with some copies dating from just 100 years or so after its writing, and thousands more in various other ancient languages.

The Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts

CSNTM is dedicated to digitally archiving and preserving all known ancient Greek New Testament manuscripts with a free searchable library and other great resources on manuscript studies.

OLD TESTAMENT 

The oldest known manuscripts of the Old Testament in Hebrew used to be a couple of medieval codices (10th century CE) known as the Masoretic text, until the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls in 1947 which dated back a millennium from these codices. Before this discovery, manuscripts translated in Greek, known as the Septuagint, were the oldest extant manuscripts of the Old Testament (300-100 BCE). And there are other extant manuscripts in various other languages including Aramaic, Paleo-Hebrew, Latin, Syriac and Coptic.

The most notable texts among the Dead Sea Scrolls are the biblical writings found near the site of Qumran, which contain partial or complete copies of every book in the Hebrew Bible (i.e., Old Testament), except the book of Esther. Many of these manuscripts closely resemble the Masoretic Text, which is remarkable considering the Qumran Scrolls are more than a thousand years older!

The Dead Sea Scrolls Digital Library

The Leon Levy Dead Sea Scrolls Digital Library digitally preserves thousands of scroll fragments, including the oldest known copies of biblical texts. You can examine the latest high-definition spectral images, which enhance the texts' visibility and readability on the scrolls.
