Ancient Biblical Manuscripts Are Copyrighted? - Dr. Alan Bunning

What does copyright law say about ancient manuscripts of the Bible? Dr. Alan Bunning shares valuable insights on copyright law, explaining why the biblical text is inherently public domain and cannot be copyrighted. He also addresses the challenges posed by organizations restricting access to ancient manuscripts and highlights the need for open resources to support the body of Christ.

Learn how the efforts of the Center for New Testament Restoration (CNTR) to digitize and correct historical texts make previously inaccessible materials freely available for research and study. Alan's inspiring story showcases his labor of love for the Church and his commitment to the principle that the Word of God should be freely accessible to all. CNTR removes barriers like financial restrictions, limited access, and biased scholarship to empower individuals to examine the original manuscript evidence directly.
