Regarded as the standard Greek text for modern scholarship and translation, this 27th Edition of the Nestle-Aland Text of the Greek New Testament is the most recent in a century-long succession of revisions. The work can be traced back to Eberhard Nestle, whose First Edition was published in 1898. Kurt Aland took up the challenge of making further refinements in 1952 and continued as a member of the editorial board from that point. Numerous other scholars, such as Bruce M. Metzger, have joined the endeavor.
Compiled and preserved by Jewish scribes (Masoretes) of the fifth through tenth centuries AD, the accuracy of the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia (BHS) is confirmed by its consistency with both the Greek Septuagint (LXX) version and the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Masoretes are said to have standardized the Jewish text, putting in the vowel points that are familiar to Hebrew readers today. They were devoutly religious in their meticulous copy work, willing to destroy a whole manuscript if it was discovered to contain a single error. The result of their work is a collection of manuscripts which, though relatively few in number, displays remarkable accuracy. The BHS is also sometimes referred to as the Hebrew Masoretic Text (HMT).
