Nelson Hsieh studies the text of the New Testament with particular interest in ancient manuscripts, scribal habits, and biblical paratexts (such as marginal notes, ancient chapter divisions, and expansive titles of the NT books).
Nelson works on Tyndale House’s New Testament Project, which focuses on studying the punctuation, paragraphing, structural divisions, and paratext of ancient Greek manuscripts. This research will form the basis of changes to the 2nd edition of the Tyndale House Greek New Testament and will be published in journal articles.
