The auditable chain
Here is the text. Here is the ancient evidence. Now examine it yourself.
Most Catholic resources ask you to trust a translation. Original Scripture goes further — it traces every verse back to the manuscripts that preserve it, the scholars who edited it, and the Church Fathers who quoted it within living memory of the Apostles.
Primary source links connect directly to the Vatican Apostolic Library's digitized collections at digi.vatlib.it — so you can view the actual manuscript pages, not just a summary of them.
