Riepilogo:The collection of writings known today as the New Testament has been preserved in more witnesses than any other text in antiquity.

The present article aims to introduce the notion of textual plurality in the New Testament more generally, followed by a discussion of various means of scribal involvement in its origin as well as the subsequent scribal interaction with it.
