Changes

The Gospels were taken directly from Codex 2^e, Acts and epistles from 2^ap, and Revelation from 1^r. Where these manuscripts had gaps, back-translations from the [[Vulgate]] were used. In fact, 2^e and 2^ap were sent directly to the printer for typesetting. Erasmus’ handwritten annotations can be seen between the lines, although the printer often ignored these. 1^r could not be treated this way because it mixes text and annotation. Erasmus separated these by referring to the Vulgate. As a result of this haphazard process, there were numerous typographical errors in the first edition.

Some 400 corrections were made for the second edition (1519). Erasmus obtained access to 3^eap, a nearly complete New Testament text. But there is no indication that he made much use of it. Many readers criticized the first two editions of TR because they lacked the [[Johannine Comma]] found in the Vulgate.<ref>"the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one." (1 John 5:7b–8a NKJV). Despite the Trinitarian controversy, no fourth century writer cites this passage. This suggests that it was not considered part of scripture at that time.</ref> Erasmus added it to the third edition (1522), citing Codex 61. This was a recently produced manuscript, and probably a response to TR. Although Erasmus was skeptical of this manuscript, he thought it wiser to reverse himself. For the 1527 edition, Erasmus made extensive revisions based on the ''Complutensian Polyglot'', a Greek text edited by Jiménez de Cisneros. A final edition was published in 1535.
