Clavis Consulting, LLC, Kansas Description A NEOLOGISM — a NEW WORD — creates a rippling in Time. It splashes forward upon its surface of porous fabric; echoes in waves, spoken and written, until it enters our ears and minds. Neologisms hide in plain sight, embedded among more commonplace words. Words that at first sounded new and creative eventually fade into the background, with origin points and meanings increasingly difficult to pinpoint over time. Massive Corpus Linguistics projects, however, are changing this. Using a database-driven approach — ingesting, correlating, and querying these corpora —, Dr. Bilby has built a data-magnet to detect neologistic needles hiding in these high and heavy lexical haystacks. In this book, Bilby pinpoints over 40 non-Christian neologisms as tiny treasures, micro-features, trace elements that together give us our clearest picture yet of the dates when documents in the NTwere composed, edited, and/or reached stable form. If Bilby is right, then most New Testament scholarship is abysmally wrong. The canonical New Testament documents were not completed in the 1st or even early 2nd century. These forty neologisms show they were composed and/or still being significantly edited between 138 and 249 CE. © 2026 by Clavis Imprints, a division of Clavis Consulting, LLC, Kansas.
