A recent book about the wonders of science proliferating in our present search for expanding the economy to provide employment for all will find every person in the world owner of a cell phone within two years. The Kepler telescope will reveal wonders in other worlds never even dreamed of before. Preditory landing contributed to the Downturn and was clearly explained on the January 3rd podcast of The Sunday Edition hosted by Michael Enright. It would be nice to balance our own world here first before inhabiting another. Perhaps we may already have the wisdom in book form while looking into our past for help in the present.
New translations of ancient wisdom may soon be bringing more of this ancient wisdom to light that will help our search for solving our world wide challenge of all economies and the need to balance them and lead to our long sought for peace and prosperity for all and finally bring an end to regular depressions. Partnering with the British Library, the Nation of Russia, Leipzig University Library and Saint Catherine’s Monastery, ancient scriptures are being translated and studied by scholars. Called the Codex Sinaiticus, it is the oldest complete copy of the New Testament and other biblical texts. Its name comes from the location in which this handwritten copy was handwritten in Greek on papyrus scrolls by four scribes and found in Sinai, Egypt and thus called Codex Sinaiticus. Older copies of individual portions of the Christian bible exist, but not as a complete text. Dating to around AD 350 years – near the time of Constantine the Great (AD 274-337) the Roman emperor who embraced Christianity, an early copy is held at the Vatican.
Visiting the Monastery of St. Catherine, the scholar Constantine Tischendorf recognized its significance in l844. The English translation is not complete but may be seen at: www.codex-sinaiticus.net/en.
