Appears as tho the believers were writing out copies as fast as their fingers would move, contrary to what some may say...
I don't buy into the RCC is the one true church nonsense at all; but publish does not always mean writing. Generally speaking, that is the interpretation today, but it wasn't necessarily so centuries ago.
I agree...But, I believe it's reasonable to assume that many early Chrisians did copy the scriptures with what means they had available...
I just found it interesting that the bible mentions this in a few place so it must be significant, possibly to let us know that our bible history wasn't just passed on from one mouth to another...
It was recorded, even in it's earliest stages...
Act 13:49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
