Some writers have questioned the validity of this grouping, claiming that the classification is the result of poor research. Insofar as the Caesarean text-type does exist (in Matt, Luke and John is not well defined), then it does so only in the Gospels, the proposed Caesarean witnesses do not appear to have any common distinctive readings in the rest of the New Testament
