Nelson Hsieh
Research Associate in New Testament Text and Language at Tyndale House
Biography
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 (likely) be published as a Commentary on Unit Delimitation and Paratext in NT Greek Manuscripts.
