The Codex Sinaiticus online
800 pages of it can be found at www.codexsinaiticus.org
The British Library is marking the online launch of the manuscript with an exhibition – which includes a range of historic items and artefacts linked to the document.
For 1,500 years, the Codex Sinaiticus lay undisturbed in a Sinai monastery until it was found in 1844 and split between Egypt, Russia, Germany and Britain.
It’s a little slow loading. I’ve been waiting for a page to come up while I’ve written this post. There are several display options for viewing besides the actual page. You can get Transcription, Translation, and physical description. Nice maneuverability. Kind of like using Google Maps.
