Before all this, the Sinaiticus manuscript was just an unclean nothing, textually dismantled by Burgon (and Hoskier) …

Herman Charles Hoskier (1864-1938) gave analysis and made some comments that can help us on the true dating of Sinaiticus. Here are two:

Concerning the Text of the Apocalypse (1929)
Herman Hoskier
https://archive.org/details/Hoskier-ConcerningTheTextOfTheApokalypse/

“which seems to make the text of א junior to (ms.) 240 ! ” - p.729

“א had already conflated … Surely here is a case where we may say that our poor little overlooked xv-th cent. junior MS. and its group goes back of and behind א !” - p. 392


hmmmm … why would Sinaiticus be the junior manuscript compared to c. AD 1000-1300 manuscripts? And why so many conflations in the Sinaiticus Revelation? Conflations can be a result when there is established textual variation.

Remember, Sinaiticus was supposedly, theoretically, written (according to Tischendorf”s theories) at a time when Revelation was barely accepted as canonical by the Greek church.

==================================

DRP
p. 57
The MSS 1678, 1778, and 2080 are direct descendants of the Uncial 052, and are often quite instructive. (Hoskier says this 052 text is 50 years older than that of א.)

The additional Junior References do not tell us much about Sinaiticus
I stopped after the first 5 or so.

More on Hoskier

DRP


Hoskier in Volume 1 where he discusses 1678 says that the family of 052 1678 1778 2080 is a very old text type, and he estimates it to be about 50 years older than that of Codex Sinaiticus (ℵ). He gives some examples of where ℵ conflates the reading of the 052 family with that of another line

p. 728 starts his 240 == GA 1678

Question
It seems that the reason these late medieval manuscripts are considered to be an ancient text line is that they contribute one part of Sinaiticus conflations.

Beyond that, nothing is noted that marks them as a very early text-line. If Sinaiticus is misdated, they would return to normal late medieval manuscripts.

Agree?

The Beatty Papyrus of Revelation and Hoskier's Edition (1934)
Harry A. Sanders

1726171115451.png


Next after cursive 200 in nearness to our papyrus text stands
group 178. This group consists of three manuscripts, 178, 203,
and 240, together with the fragment F. Manuscript 38 is nearly
related. Ms. 178 is fourteenth century or earlier, and preserved
on Patmos. Manuscript 203 is a little later but from a monastery
near Saloniki. It is not a sister manuscript to 178 but stands
between it and manuscript 38. In addition to this distinctive
text it carries the commentaries of Oecumenius and Arethas.
Manuscript 240 also contains the same commentaries, but is
from the fifteenth century and found on Athos. As regards text
it seems a true copy of F, the four leaves of which are still found
in the same monastery on Athos. F, a tenth century manuscript,
was the oldest and best of this group. Manuscripts 240 and 203
reproduce it most nearly. Manuscript 38 varies from type most.
Hoskier lists the family as group 38, when this manuscript agrees,
otherwise as group 178. I have followed him in my count of
agreements, though I would prefer to assign but one name to the
group. As the table gives but 119 agreements of group 38 with
P47, it follows that this manuscript varies from the type of the
whole family 34 times in the 7 chapters compared. The present
location of the various manuscripts of the group gives no hint
as to the original home of this text, but my comparisons point
definitely to an early Egyptian type. It agrees with

א quite as closely as does P47. I noted 14 variants for which

א and group 178 (38) are the sole authorities. In 11 of these manuscript 38

is opposed, so it is evident that many older readings of the family
were removed from this representative by some corrector.
