When was Greek spelling frozen?
A comparison of different New Testament manuscripts (something I am busy
on at the moment) shows that the spelling of most Greek words was frozen
before the earliest of these manuscripts, so before the 2nd century CE.
Only a few spellings changed later. And in fact there are rather few
spelling differences between classical Attic and the Koine of the New
Testament. But this takes us rather far from the subject of Hebrew.
