Andreas' is among the oldest Greek commentaries on Revelation.[5] Most subsequent Eastern Christian commentators of the Book of Revelation have drawn heavily upon Andrew and his commentary,[6] which was preserved in about 100 Greek manuscripts,[7] and was also translated into Armenian, Georgian, and Slavonic.[8] His commentary was so influential that it preserved the specific Andreas text type of Revelation.[7]
Witnesses
It has been argued that the 4th century corrector of the Codex Sinaiticus followed the Andreas text-type.[9]
Schmid numbered around 83 witnesses to the text, these include unicials such as 25, 88, 205, 209 and 632. [2] There are additionally multiple Georgian, Armenian and Slavonic copies of the commentary of Andreas.[10]
