What is MMS?

[Nelka]

In my New Testament I sometimes find written in the footnotes some MMS say this/that.

What does it stand for?

Thanks.

I think it is an abbreviation for “medieval manuscripts”.

Not to be confused with MSS, which means “manuscripts.”

Sometimes when Bibles (and other books) use non-standard abbreviations, they will provide a key somewhere with their definition.
