Alexandrian Text

The Alexandrian Text is a recension of the Greek New Testament characterized by a generally shorter and more austere text, distinguished from other textual traditions such as the Byzantine and Western texts by its association with early manuscripts from Alexandria and its preference for readings exhibiting greater brevity and linguistic smoothness.
