Could we ever discover earlier New Testament manuscripts than the ones we already have? In this episode, we explore the possibilities—from chance finds like the Nag Hammadi Library, to scraps reused in codex bindings, to the controversial practice of dismantling cartonnage masks. We’ll also discuss why Egypt’s dry climate has been crucial for manuscript preservation, and how new technologies (like digital unrolling of papyri) might someday help us recover texts without destroying artifacts. But even if we can find new manuscripts, what ethical and historical costs are involved—and what do we really gain by having them?
