I was an intern for Dr. Daniel Wallace as a master’s student, and he also supervised my master’s thesis. So I am always excited to see his work receiving some attention.

Last summer, his group uncovered a treasure trove of 47 ancient Greek manuscripts of the New Testament. Last night, the local ABC affiliate did a brief story. Here it is:
