Abstract
An-Ting Yi writes an extensive scholarly history of the famous Codex Vaticanus over the course of 350 years. Currently regarded as one of the most essential pillars to reconstruct the Greek New Testament text, the perceptions of this manuscript have changed profoundly in history, from an inferior witness to the most valuable foundation. This work uncovers how it became Codex Vaticanus par excellence in New Testament textual scholarship.
