Unlocked Greek New Testament (UGNT)

An open-licensed, lexically tagged, morphologically parsed critical Greek New Testament with full apparatus. It enables the global Church to have access to the original texts of the New Testament.

Basis

The UGNT text is based on the Bunning Heuristic Prototype Greek New Testament (BHP). See the full rationale for the BHP text here. Also, see http://www.greekcntr.org for more information.

Changes from the BHP

The UGNT text differs from the BHP in only a few respects, which are:

• Versification - The versification system used by the UGNT matches that of our ULB text. There are only two differnces here:
  • BHP does not have 2 Corinthians 13:14 but the UGNT does (see this commit).
  • BHP does not have Acts 19:41 but UGNT does (see this commit).
• Text - The text of the UGNT is identical to the BHP except that we include several verses that the BHP omits. Italicised verses below are included as footnotes, not in the main text. The full list of verses that we include are:
  • Matthew 16:3; 17:21; 18:11; 23:14
  • Mark 7:16; 9:44; 9:46; 11:26; 15:28; 16:9-20
  • Luke 17:36; 22:43-44; 23:17
  • John 5:4; 7:53; 8:1-11
  • Acts 8:37; 15:34; 24:7; 28:29
  • Romans 16:24
• Metadata - The UGNT text includes various metadata to mark the text which create links to other content that our software uses. For example, we add links to our translationWords articles where appropriate.
