Staff from the Center for the Study of New Testament Manuscripts (CSNTM) have discovered as many as 17 New Testament manuscripts at the National Library of Greece. While some were known to those at the library, these manuscripts had not been officially catalogued by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research (INTF) -- the official cataloging house of all Greek New Testament manuscripts. The oldest one discovered dates from the seventh century. Since 2002, CSNTM staff have discovered more than 90 New Testament manuscripts with more than 20,000 pages of text.
