To make digital photographs of extant Greek New Testament manuscripts so that such images can be preserved, duplicated without deterioration, and accessed by scholars doing textual research. 2. To utilize developing technologies (OCR, MSI, etc.) to read these manuscripts and create exhaustive collations. 3. To analyze individual scribal habits in order to better predict scribal tendencies in any given textual problem. 4. To publish on various facets of New Testament textual criticism. 5. To develop electronic tools for the examination and analysis of New Testament manuscripts. 6. To cooperate with other institutes in the great and noble task of determining the wording of the autographa of the New Testament. false false 741838 -2133 Resourcing: The Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts' (CSNTM) core program is to provide scholars, scholarly institutions, and the wider public with manuscript images, digital tools for textual research, and other useful resources using emerging technologies. In 2024, CSNTM visited 14 institutions in 6 countries to examine 414 manuscript artifacts, totaling 144,840 pages. After examination, we digitized (including manuscripts and microfilm images of manuscripts) 280 manuscript artifacts totaling 95,212 pages. We continue to work with the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in digitizing their collection of historic documents related to the International Greek New Testament Project (IGNTP.) 31568 Educating: CSNTM trains new generations of scholars and a wider audience in the history of the New Testament text. We fulfilled this academic and educational mission in three areas. (1) In 2024, CSNTM staff and interns presented papers at two academic conferences. (2) In 2024, four masters-level students completed their academic internships, including the opportunity to attend two academic conferences. (3) In 2024, CSNTM completed the development of its first Biblion Lecture Series, "Text to Translation: The Story of the New Testament." It was delivered to 87 unique students who filled 248 seats at the sessions. 15784 Collaborating: CSNTM engages with other institutions and scholars in the academic discipline of New Testament textual scholarship. In 2024, CSNTM hosted its second CSNTM Text & Manuscript Conference, a biennial gathering of the world's leading New Testament textual scholars. The conference was held in Plano, Texas on May 30-31, featuring presentations from 18 world-renowned academics from Europe and the United States, and drew more than 50 attendees. As with the first conference, Hendrickson Publishers will publish a collection of the papers tentatively titled, Intersection: Interdisciplinary Approaches to New Testament Text and Manuscripts. Additionally, CSNTM has completed the arduous process of redesigning its database and website to accommodate a broader range of relevant New Testament resources. The site is currently in beta testing with the full launch scheduled for the third quarter of 2025. 789190 true true false false false false false true false false true false false true true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 5 0 true 10 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 7 6 false false false false false false false true false false false false true true true true true true true true false false X Mark W Gaither 9729414521 2001 West Plano Parkway Ste 2450 Plano TX 75075 Daniel B Wallace PhD CEO/Executive Director 30.0 X X 121826 0 39320 Amy S Anderson PhD Director 1.0 X 0 0 0 Gregory Bledsoe Director 1.0 X 0 0 0 Michael W Holmes PhD Director 1.0 X 0 0 0 Susan Hutchinson Chairman 1.0 X 0 0 0 Tommy Wasserman PhD Director 1.0 X 0 0 0 W Hall Harris III PhD Director 1.0 X 0 0 0 Mark W Gaither Chief Operating Officer / Secretary 40.0 X 81262 0 21223 203088 0 60543 1 false true false 0 1044567 7504 1044567 0 0 0 0 0 46 46 1612 1612 0 0 7504 7504 0 0 0 8687 10820 -2133 -2133 0 0 0 0 0 1044092 -2133 0 1658 263631 221445 26372 15814 338130 179194 34286 124650 9678 5162 813 3703 78974 49902 6352 22720 31778 17641 4957 9180 8800 8800 16250 0 0 16250 3175 3175 51085 25987 4964 20134 35018 35018 22169 17516 2484 2169 165315 157815 900 6600 17031 16981 50 54956 43964 5496 5496 14260 14260 Other Expenses 70967 18565 38413 13989 0 0 0 0 1181217 789190 148097 243930 181756 77248 100924 107023 34370 1413 0 0 0 0 2999 2999 590149 381969 259637 208180 0 0 25664 75317 570980 506550 80318 104665 0 0 26969 75317 107287 179982 X 344103 217198 119590 109370 463693 326568 570980 506550 -137125 0 X true X false X true false X 749551 902876 1042010 966979 1044567 4705983 0 0 749551 902876 1042010 966979 1044567 4705983 434983 4271000 14 14 9 724 46 807 0 0 0 0 4672 0 4672 4711462 54496 0.90651 0.84967 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 Other Income DESCRIPTION - OTHER REVENUE, COLUMN A - , COLUMN B - , COLUMN C - , COLUMN D - 4672.0, COLUMN E - , COLUMN F - 4672.0; RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 35531 X X X X Early Christian manuscripts false 37467 37467 0 499560 340593 158967 53122 3909 49213 208180 Operating right-of-use asset 75317 75317 Federal Income Taxes Operating Lease Liability 75317 75317 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Schedule D, Part III, Line 4 Collections of art - description of collections Early Christian manuscripts are digitally kept for the purposes of historical documentation and research.
