Marcion of Sinope's Apostolos (or Apostolikon or Apostle), an early collection of ten letters attributed to the Apostle Paul, has been reconstructed using data-mining methods for the first time in history by an international team of scholars (Markus Vinzent, Mark G. Bilby, Jack Bull, and K. Lance Lotharp). This companion volume to the TANZ German critical reconstruction is designed for any and every English-speaking reader, presenting an English translation of the Apostolos. It also includes a parallel, fresh English translation of these ten letters as found in the Canonical New Testament. The custom format and layout, with careful attention to detail on every line of every page, makes it easy to compare every English word to reveal the differences between these two rival versions of the Pauline letters. Receptions: "The text of Marcion's Apostolos is far from settled, and scholars have yet to delve into the details of the critical edition by Vinzent, Bilby, Bull, and Lotharp. But for scholars and a curious public, this companion edition allows readers to compare for themselves the proposed reconstruction with the standard NT texts. Its clear presentation and translation, unencumbered by lexical notes and commentary, was made with care to represent the character and nuances of the Greek texts." -- Tony Burke, York University
