ˌparadiploˈmatic, a.
[f. para-1 1.]
Aside or apart from what is strictly diplomatic or concerned with the evidence of the manuscript texts.
1854Ellicott Comm. Galatians Pref. (1859) 17, I have always endeavoured, first, to ascertain the exact nature of the diplomatic evidence; secondly, that of what I have termed paradiplomatic arguments,..by which I mean the apparent probabilities of erroneous transcription, permutation of letters, itacism, and so forth. Ibid. 15 The accidental omission..seems probable on paradiplomatic considerations. 1879Farrar in Expositor IX. 29 The passage is still to be retained in spite of evidence both external and internal, both diplomatic and paradiplomatic. 1882― Early Chr. II. 448 One of those cases in which the reading of the existing MSS. is outweighed by other authorities and other considerations. Note: To express the same thing technically, the diplomatic is outweighed by the paradiplomatic evidence. |
