On the 25th of February, 1516, Desiderius Erasmus completed work on 
his edition of the Greek New Testament. It wasn't the best edition 
ever produced and it wasn't textually reliable at a number of places 
(particularly throughout Revelation)- but it changed the scholarly 
world.  It was the foundation of all printed critical editions of the 
GNT and so we all owe him a debt of gratitude.
