The Book of Revelation (Rev), one of the most effective New Testament writings from the standpoint of cultural history and theology, has not been edited in a satisfactory manner. This long-term project addresses this desideratum by means of an edition – electronically and in print – whose base text as well as apparatus correspond to the modern scientific standards and thus lay the foundation for future research. Meanwhile, the project has now reached a very advanced stage:The construction of the apparatus and production of the critical text take place against the background of a consistent theory of textual transmission. The goal is a ‘fully integrated digital edition’, which links a critically reconstructed text with readings in the apparatus, electronic transcriptions and, as far as copyrights allow, with digital photographs of the manuscripts. This edition will be accompanied by a print version.The previous project phases involved evaluation of the textual worth of the Greek manuscripts on the basis of test passages, production of the Sahidic Coptic and Syriac editions as well as transcriptions of the Greek manuscript tradition of Rev. The current (third) project phase aims to produce a critical apparatus with Greek witnesses, further versions and patristic citations. The successful completion of this task is assured by the end of the project phase, as foreseen in the work plan. As an innovation in the Editio Critica Maior (ECM) of the New Testament, the apparatus also documents various special features of manuscripts (text-division, accentuation in select semantically relevant passages, etc.) as well as a number of select editions.On the basis of this work plan, the fourth project phase will reconstruct the earliest recoverable initial text (base text) and document the tradition in two apparatuses (1. variants, 2. punctuation). The punctuation apparatus is our innovation within the ECM. The data of both apparatuses will enable formulation of a consistent hypothesis concerning the textual history. The edition will be published electronically and in print (designed according to the ECM standard); additional material will be accessible electronically (database of patristic citations, graphic elements, etc.). Thanks to the manner in which the material has been recorded, even matters such as stylistic developments in the text of Rev, Greek kephalaia, modern conjectural emendations, etc. will be accessible. Two supplementary volumes will contain rationale for the text-critical decisions, additional material (based on the ECM standard) and specialised studies concerning matters of importance for the editorial decisions.

启示录（Rev），从文化历史和神学的角度来看，最有效的新约著作之一，没有以令人满意的方式编辑。这一长期项目通过电子版和印刷版解决了这一迫切需要，其基础文本和仪器符合现代科学标准，从而为未来的研究奠定了基础。与此同时，该项目现在已经达到了一个非常先进的阶段：设备的建设和生产的关键文本发生在一个一致的文本传播理论的背景下。其目标是一个“完全集成的数字版”，它将批判性地重建的文本与设备中的读数、电子传输以及在版权允许的范围内与手稿的数字照片联系起来。这个版本将伴随着一个印刷版本。以前的项目阶段包括评估的测试通道的基础上的希腊手稿的文本价值，Sahidic科普特语和叙利亚语版本的生产，以及希腊手稿传统的Rev transanimation。当前（第三）项目阶段的目的是产生一个关键的设备与希腊证人，进一步的版本和教父引文。如工作计划所预见的，这一任务的圆满完成将在项目阶段结束时得到保证。作为《新约圣经》主要批评版本（ECM）的一项创新，该设备还记录了手稿的各种特殊功能（文本划分，在选择语义相关段落时的重音等）。在此工作计划的基础上，第四个项目阶段将重建最早可恢复的原始文本（基础文本），并在两个设备（1，变体，2.标点符号）。标点装置是我们在ECM中的创新。这两种设备的数据将使有关文本历史的一致假设的公式化成为可能。该版本将以电子方式出版和印刷（根据ECM标准设计）;其他材料将以电子方式访问（教父引文数据库，图形元素等）。由于材料被记录的方式，即使是诸如Rev文本中的文体发展，希腊kephalaia，现代acetural emendations等问题也将被访问。两个补充卷将包含文本关键决定的理由、额外材料（基于ECM标准）和关于编辑决定重要事项的专门研究。
