While I haven't a copy myself, I would likely use :
  [1]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_text-type as source
  for an attempt at historical continuity within the tradition
  before then attempting cross-cultural comparison. Oh it's not
  that simple of course. But the thing about historical continuity
  is that there is the opportunity to check the archeology against
  the received elders to make comparisons. The only reason I'd
  chose their text over post 19th century "start from scratch"
  reconstructions is because the history seems to support it.

  I could also go with the Coptic as well, as their split was
  earlier - the theological differences being that of an iota.
