THE THIRTEENTH BIRMINGHAM COLLOQUIUM ON THE TEXTUAL CRITICISM OF THE NEW TESTAMENT Abstracts (In order of papers) P.M. Head (Oxford)-Marginal Corrections in NT Papyri The earliest type of marginalia within the NT textual tradition are marginal corrections to the text. Most of these would appear to be corrections to omissions caused by parablepsis. Although normally considered differently to marginalia of explanatory type (scholia, comments or commentary, kephalaia, or enumeration systems), these corrections use similar techniques to later marginal comments to link the marginal correction to the location within the text and also invite a reading of the (main) text in light of the text in the margin. They thus represent an early analogue to later systems. This paper contains a complete catalogue of all marginal corrections in the NT papyri and some reflection on their significance as the earliest extant marginalia within NT manuscripts. P. Manafis (Thrace)-GA 1422: A Codex Singulus or a New Witness to the Catena of Codex Zacynthius? Prague, Národní Knihovna České republiky, XXV B 7 (GA 1422) has recently been classified as a codex unicus in the tradition of catenae on the Gospel of Luke. The manuscript was assigned the siglum C137.8. The present paper investigates this hypothesis by comparing the series of comments in GA1422 with that preserved in the two representatives of the catena type C137.3 in order to determine whether this manuscript is, in fact, a further new witness to the catena of Codex Zacynthius. J. Marcon (Berlin)-Reconstructing the lost commentary of Severian of Gabala on the Pauline Epistles through the fragments: the evidence of the catena tradition. The fame of Severian of Gabala, a Syriac bishop active in Constantinople at the turn of the 4th and 5th century, is mainly related to the composition of 61 Homilies, preserved either in their entirety, in most of the cases under the attribution of John Chrysostom, or fragmentarily in Old and New Testament catenae and dogmatic florilegia. Besides his numerous homilies on biblical subjects, he probably also wrote a commentary on the Pauline Epistle (CPG 4219), which is attested only in fragments across the exegetical chains and was edited by Karl Staab in Pauluskommentare. The main aim of this paper is to analyze the 506 scholia attributed to Severian of Gabala in Pauline catenae, using both selected manuscripts of the so-called Pseudo-Oecumenian tradition and the witnesses of additional Pauline catenae. These comprise the socalled Typus Vaticanus (
