Ok folks, which is the best manuscript out there and which one does the Catholic Church uses?

All of this is confusing the nothing out of me:

Byzantine text-type

Textus Receptus

Novum_Testamentum_Graece

Caesarean text-type

Western text-type

My opinion is Textus_Receptus - because it is the original greek, but I'm not one of those - KJV only types. I love the JPS for old testament because of its boldness and clarity of the scripture.

Really? Huh...'cause I remember that Erasmus did backtranslate some Latin into Greek in order to form the TR.

The TR is part of the Byzantine Text Family because it was compiled from those texts. The Byzantine Texts provide the majority of NT Greek Manuscripts.
