Abstract

This contribution explores an important New Testament annotation by Erasmus, in which he deals with miracles and the quality of the Greek of the New Testament. A side remark in the short 1516 form of the annotation immediately provoked fierce opposition, which is shown to have led to significant expansions by Erasmus. The annotation also had a significant reception history in New Testament scholarship, the beginnings of which are sketched below.
