Collatio Novi Testamenti (1453) is a ms. by Lorenzo Valla.

Abstract

A critical comparison of the Latin New Testament with the original Greek text.

Valla completed a first draft of the ms. in 1443 and continued to work on this version up to 1453, when he dedicated it to Pope Nicholas V under the title "Collatio Novi Testamenti". He then revised this first version, leaving at his death in 1457 a clearly more sophisticated, though shorter, text that carried the title "Adnotationes ad Novum Testamentum". It was this text that Erasmus "discovered" and published in 1505.
