Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of Mark is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah
26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book gives explanation
about the apparatus.

In the colophons, f [50%] have, “published ten years after the ascension of Christ”. For 50% of the MSS to have this information
probably means that the tradition is ancient; and of course, I have demonstrated, to my own satisfaction at least, that f 35 goes
back at least to the 3 rd century. If this information is correct, then Mark was ‘published’ in 40/41 AD. The same sources have
Matthew published two years earlier (38/39) and Luke five years later (45/46), while John was ‘published’ thirty-two years after
the ascension, or 61/62 AD. Not only were the authors eyewitnesses of the events, but many others were still alive when the
Gospels appeared. They could attest to the veracity of the accounts, but could also be the source of textual variants, adding
tidbits here and there, or ‘correcting’ something that they remembered differently.
9 35
The citation of f is based on twenty-five MSS—18, 35, 141, 204, 547, 645, 689, 824, 928, 1023, 1145, 1147, 1199, 1251, 1339,
1435, 1503, 1572, 1637, 1667, 1705, 2253, 2323, 2466, and 2765—all of which I collated myself. None of them is a ‘perfect’
representative of f 35 in Mark, as it stands [an unreasonable expectation, presumably, for a book this size, besides being a
Gospel]. But the exemplar of 35 probably was! And several other exemplars come close—that of 2253 was off by two variants,
those of 824, 1435, 1503 and 1637 were off by three, several by four, and so on. [This refers to the MSS I have collated—there
may be even better ones out there! In fact, since I have collated scarcely 10% of the family representatives for this book, there
probably are better ones out there.] The uniformity is impressive. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean world
(Sinai, Jerusalem, Cyprus, Patmos, Constantinople, Aegean, Tirana, Mt. Athos [six different monasteries], Corinth, Athens,
Grottaferrata, Vatican, etc.) they are certainly representative of the family, giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in
the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—HF,RP,CP,TR,OC,NU. HF = Hodges-Farstad, RP = Robinson-
Pierpont (2005), CP = Complutensian Polyglot, TR = Textus Receptus, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church
(also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the
apparatus), NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of N-A 26 /
UBS 3 ).
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for each variant within either ( ) or
[ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not
covered there, I mainly depended on Legg (Novum Testamentum Graece Secundum Westcotto-Hortianum. Evangelium
Secundum Marcum [Ed. S.C.E. Legg, Oxonii: E. Typographeo Clarendoniano, 1935]). I occasionally supplemented from
Swanson, Scrivener and von Soden—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a
comparison of these sources.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine variants listed with 5 to 1%
support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 2%; for non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support
the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 4%; where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error
should rarely exceed ± 15%—since my sources had collated a lower percentage of the extant MSS than ECM for the General
Epistles, for example, my guesses as to percentages are more tentative than they were there, except that I guarantee the
witness of f 35 .
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier; the same
holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses, and
printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and may be

Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD
Once upon a time I was led to believe that von Soden’s work was basically reliable. This was
important because his work underlies both the Hodges-Farstad and Robinson-Pierpont editions of the
Majority Text. However, the Text und Textwert (TuT) 1 collations demonstrate objectively that not
infrequently Soden is seriously off the mark. Maurice Robinson's collations of the Pericope Adulterae 2
demonstrate objectively that Soden is very seriously wrong there. With reference to Soden’s treatment
of codex 223 K.W. Clark says, “Furthermore, our collation has revealed sixty-two errors in 229
readings treated by von Soden.” 3 27% in error (62 ÷ 229) is altogether too much, and what is true of
MS 223 may be true of other MSS as well. Hoskier was not entirely mistaken in his evaluation. For
myself, I must reconsider the evidence for the whole New Testament.
Herewith a new Greek text and critical apparatus for John. As explained elsewhere, I now use
f 35 instead of K r . I further insist that f 35 should be factored out of the broad Byzantine tradition and be
presented separately, because I now believe that f 35 is earlier than K x , etc., being the base from which
the others departed. 4
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for
each variant within either ( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be
reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not covered there I used Reuben Swanson’s
excellent collations, 5 occasionally supplementing from Scrivener and von Soden—the percentages
offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of these sources. I have
determined the reading of f 35 on the basis of twelve minuscules—35, 83, 141, 201, 204, 479, 480, 928,
1339, 1572, 1637 and 2322—all of which I collated myself, except for 201, 479 and 480, where I
depended on Scrivener. The profile of f 35 is quite clear in John, made up of perhaps 93 readings (the
rest of the time it is accompanied by the Byzantine bulk, or most of it). There is only one splinter group
involving three MSS (of the 12), and being two lambdas instead of one (12:6) it is probably fortuitous.
Not fortuitous are the two times that the same eight MSS, of the twenty-four I have in hand, share a
variant: adding de at 7:29 and h at 11:21. Even if the collation of dozens of further family
de
representatives were to shift the scale, the difference in the Text would be infinitesimal. To have no
more variation within the family than this, for a book the size of John, is simply incredible. Nothing that
I was taught in Seminary prepared me for this discovery! We are looking at an incredibly careful
transmission; not only for some small Epistles, but for a Gospel. Wow! Since the MSS represent a
wide geographic distribution, the chances that they do not represent the main line of transmission are
remote. So here you have the archetypal Text of f 35 , beyond reasonable question.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—CP,HF,RP,OC,TR,NU. 6 CP differs 82
times from my text; HF differs 91 times; RP differs 93 times; OC differs 115 times; TR differs 170
times. The eclectic text (NU) has no fewer than 793 errors (as I see it)—scarcely a good showing! 7
A word of explanation about my use of accents and punctuation: 1) since the accents are
unnecessary, for the most part (especially for silent reading) [and presumably were not part of the
1
Text und Textwert der Griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments (Ed. Kurt Aland, Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, 2005)
volumes 35 & 36. These volumes cover only the first ten chapters of John, for which they collated some 1,763 MSS, including
fragments, for 153 variant sets (50 of which are not relevant to my apparatus), less than 1670 being available at any given
point.
2
So far as I know, this material has not yet been published; Robinson gave me the opportunity of working with a private copy of
his collation pages.

Swanson collated 44 MSS, plus 15 fragments—for any given variant set there will usually be about 40 MSS listed.

CP = Complutensian Polyglot, HF = Hodges-Farstad, RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), OC = the text of the Orthodox
Churches, TR = Textus Receptus, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the
text is still that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).
7
I venture to affirm to the reader that all original wording of John is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the
apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Lk. 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]).

Original], I use them mostly with monosyllabic words to avoid ambiguity; 2) on the other hand,
aspiration or ‘rough breathing’ is phonemic, having the value of a letter, and needs to be written (but
not the so-called ‘smooth breathing’); 3) all punctuation marks are as in English, except that in place of
the semi-colon I use the raised dot (so as not to confuse those who would take it as a question mark).
Where all six printed editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants
with at least [10%] attestation. Also, I have arbitrarily included the movable-nu in the Text, as well as
the full form of ou`twj, at all points. 1
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th
century or earlier; 2 the same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that
the reading is supported by all other witnesses, and printed editions (of the six included in the
apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and may be downloaded

Verses 7:53-8:11 are omitted in about 15% of the extant MSS, including all the early uncials except Codex D (Codex C has a
large lacuna from 7:3 – 8:34, while Codex A has a larger one, 6:50 – 8:52). For these verses I will cite the groups posited by
von Soden as used in the H-F apparatus, rather than give percentages (M 7 becomes f 35 ); however, Robinson’s collations
have demonstrated that Soden ‘regularized’ the data rather drastically, so the H-F apparatus may in fact be rather
misleading. For all that, until Robinson’s collations are fully analyzed, and the result made public, it’s the best we can do,
except that I personally checked all the f 35 MSS (in Robinson’s collations) and guarantee that the citation of f 35 is correct—it
represents 245 MSS in these verses. The two other large groups, M 5&6 , do exist, although rather ‘fuzzier’ than Soden let on; if
the lesser groups, M 1,2,3,4 , can actually be extracted from the morrass of variation, they will presumably qualify as secondary
developments, based on the three main groups. NU places the whole pericope within [[ ]], which means that it is regarded as
a later addition.

Dr. Wilbur Pickering
Brasília, 10-11-2007
1 In the colophons, f 35 [50%] have “published thirty-two years after the ascension of Christ”, or 61/62 AD. For 50% of the MSS to
have this information probably means that the tradition is ancient; and of course, I have demonstrated, to my own satisfaction
at least, that f 35 goes back at least to the 3 rd century. If this information is correct, then John was ‘published’ in 61/62 AD. The
same sources have Matthew published eight years after the ascension, or 38/39 AD, Mark published two years later (40/41)
and Luke another five years later (45/46). Not only were the authors eyewitnesses of the events, but many others were still
alive when the Gospels appeared. They could attest to the veracity of the accounts, but could also be the source of textual
variants, adding tidbits here and there, or ‘correcting’ something that they remembered differently.

Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of Acts is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah
26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book gives
explanation about the apparatus.

There is indeed a majority reading, albeit a weak one, but within the context it can scarcely be correct. [Note that scholars with
presuppositions so diverse as Alford, Burgon, Hort or Metzger have reached the same conclusion.] Consider:
a) Acts 11:30, o kai epoihsan aposteilantej, "which they also did, having sent . . . by B. & S." An aorist participle is prior in
time to its main verb, in this case also aorist—their purpose is stated to have been realized. The author clearly implies that the
offering did arrive, or had arrived, in Judea/Jerusalem. [In Acts the author seems almost to use "Jerusalem" and "Judea"
interchangeably, perhaps to avoid repetition. E.g.: 11:1 Judea, 11:2 Jerusalem (were the apostles not in Jerusalem, or
immediate environs?); 11:27 Jerusalem, 11:29 Judea, 11:30 the elders (would not the ruling elders be in Jerusalem?); 12:1-19
took place in Jerusalem, but v. 19 says Herod went down from Judea to Caesaria; 15:1 Judea, 15:2 Jerusalem; 28:21 letters
from "Judea" probably means Jerusalem.] Note that the next verse (12:1) places us in Jerusalem.
b) Acts 12:25 (12:1-24 is unrelated, except that verses 1-19 take place in Jerusalem), barnabaj kai sauloj—the action
includes both.
c) Acts 12:25, upestreyan . . . plhrwsantej thn diakonian, "they returned . . . having fulfilled the mission". Again, both the
participle and the main verb are aorist, and both plural. "Having fulfilled the mission" defines the main verb. Since the mission
was to Judea, which of necessity includes Jerusalem as its capital city, the ‘returning’ must be to the place where the mission
originated.
Barnabas could be viewed as returning to Jerusalem, having completed his mission to Antioch, but this could not be said of Saul. I
conclude that "to Jerusalem" cannot be correct here even though attested by 60% of the MSS. We observe that the other 40% of

the MSS, plus the three ancient versions, are agreed that the motion was away from Jerusalem, not toward it. However, they are
divided into five main variants, plus four isolated ones, so how shall we choose the original wording? I suppose that in a case like
this we must indeed appeal to the basic ‘canon’ of textual criticism, prefer the variant that best accounts for the origin of the others.
We must begin with presuppositions. Those who presuppose that the original text was not inspired, was not inerrant, will
presumably choose variant 6). [Please note that I am not saying that they are the only ones who might make such a choice, nor
even that they will necessarily do so.] It is the ‘harder’ reading, being at odds with the context. Many copyists noticed the problem
and attempted remedial action, producing variants 1), 2) and 4) [on that hypothesis]. Variants 3) and 5) would appear to be
conflations and thus subsequent developments. Variant 7) is an obvious conflation. It is none the less curious that although "to
Jerusalem" is evidently ancient, none of the early versions follows it.
I am among those who presuppose that the original text was indeed inspired and therefore inerrant; it follows that I am
predisposed against variant 6), it evidently being in error. [Please note again that I am speaking only of myself. I am making the
point that presuppositions must always be taken into account since they heavily influence the interpretation of the data. This is true
of all practitioners in any discipline. (Consider Luke 11:23, John 7:17 and Ephesians 2:2.)] What then? If 3) and 5) are conflations,
then 1), 2) and 4) are earlier. Variants 2) and 4) would appear to be independent attempts to ‘fix up’ variant 6). [upostrefw ek is
unprecedented (in the NT), upostrefw apo occurs four times, upostrefw eij occurs 17 times. The reading of the TR is highly
improbable, statistically speaking. If we had to choose between apo and ek, apo would win on all counts.] Forced to choose
between 1) and 6), my presuppositions guide me to variant 1); but how did 1) give rise to 6)?
Well, a superficial reader could have focused on Barnabas and assumed that he was returning to Jerusalem, having
finished his ministry in Antioch. Since 12:25 is the first mention of Barnabas (and Saul) after 11:30, and since 11:30 does not
overtly say that they ‘went’, ‘returned’ or whatever, a superficial reader could easily decide that he had to get Barnabas back to
Jerusalem. If the original of 12:25 read "to Antioch" this would be perceived as a problem, since to the superficial reader they
would still be there, having never left. This ‘correction’ evidently happened quite early, and possibly more than once,
independently—if a number of separate copyists misunderstood the text in the way suggested, and felt constrained to ‘correct’ it,
presumably most of them would simply change "Antioch" to "Jerusalem".
Although 25.2% of the MSS, plus sy p and sa, read eij antioceian, only 5.1% do so without conflation. But then, variant
4) has only 3.6% alone and 15.8% with the conflation. Variant 2) has 10.9% alone and 18.2% with the conflation. So, variant 1)
beats 4) both alone and with conflations; variant 1) loses to 2) alone, but with conflations comes in ahead. I submit that variant 1)
best explains the origin of all the others, and given the complexities of this case has the best claim upon our confidence. I
conclude that the Autograph of Acts 12:25 read eij antioceian, which is presumably precisely what happened (they returned to
Antioch); it also leads nicely into 13:1—comparing Acts 1:1 with Luke 1:3 we may reasonably conclude that Acts also is designed
to be an orderly account.
It seems to me that there is only one way to ‘save’ the majority variant here: place a comma between upestreyan and
eij, thereby making "to Jerusalem" modify "the ministry". But such a construction is unnatural to the point of being unacceptable—
had that been the author's purpose we should expect thn eij ierousalhm diakonian or thn diakonian eij ierousalhm.
The other sixteen times that Luke uses upostrefw eij we find the normal, expected meaning, "return to". As a linguist (PhD) I
would say that the norms of language require us to use the same meaning in Acts 12:25. Which to my mind leaves eij
antioceian as the only viable candidate for the Original reading in this place.
Implications: the whole contour of the evidence is troubling. It is evident that all the variants were created deliberately;
the copyists were reacting to the meaning of the whole phrase within the context (in this situation it will not do to consider the
name of each city in isolation; the accompanying preposition must also be taken into account). Variants 1) through 5) are all votes
against 6), but we must choose one of them to stand against 6)—the clear choice is 1). "To Jerusalem" has ‘Number’, ‘Antiquity’
and ‘Continuity’. "To Antioch" has ‘Antiquity’, ‘Variety’, ‘Continuity’ and ‘Reasonableness’. As Burgon would say, this is one of
those places where ‘Reasonableness’ just cannot be ignored.
It will have been observed that not only have I espoused a minority reading with reference to the total attestation, I follow
a minority within f 35 as well. The difficulty is precisely the seven-way split within the family. In the Epistles and Revelation there are
a number of places (and a few here in Acts) where f 35 divides more or less evenly between two readings, but this is the only case I
have seen where it splinters. We have already noted that variants 1) – 5) are all votes against 6); this continues to be the case as
we narrow our focus to f 35 . Of the 87 member MSS, 8 are vacant here, so the following percentages are based on the remaining
79. For 6) we have 36.7% [15 of its 29 MSS are at M. Lavras, so the geographic distribution is limited], while against it we have
62% [variant 7) is a conflation of 1) and 6), so I do not count its 1.3%]. As I have already argued above, we must chose one
candidate from the ‘opposition’ to go against 6), and the clear choice is 1). Its 27.8% is second only to the 36.7% of 6), and with
the conflations [not counting 7)] 51.9% have ‘to Antioch’—I have no doubt that eij antioceian is the archetypical reading of the
family.

I believe this variant set must be considered along with the presence of ta eqnh after parekaloun, but TuT does not include
the second set. However, from UBS 3 it appears that virtually the same roster of witnesses, including the three ancient versions
(!), read variant 2) and omit "the Gentiles". Where then is the Subject of the main verb parekaloun? Presumably for those
witnesses it would be the Jews and proselytes who had just heard Paul and wanted to hear it all over again the next Sabbath.
So why are they (Jews and proselytes) mentioned overtly again in verse 43? And on what basis would the whole city show up
the next week (v. 44)? But to go back to verse 42, why would the first hearers want to hear the same thing (ta rhmata tauta)
again anyway? The really interested ones stuck with Paul and Barnabas to learn more (v. 43), just as we would expect.
The witnesses to variants 1) and 3) join in support of "the Gentiles", giving us a strong majority (over 80%). So the Subject
of parekaloun is ta eqnh—they want a chance to hear the Gospel too, and the whole city turns out. It fits the context
perfectly. So, variant 3) appears to be a conflation and the basic reading is variant 1). [If variant 3) is viewed as the original,
variant 2) could be the result of homoioteleuton, but not variant 1).] The witnesses to variant 3), because they have "the
Gentiles", are really on the side of variant 1), not 2), so presumably 1) may be viewed as having 80% attestation. For the
witnesses to variant 1) the antecedent or referent of exiontwn must be Paul's group, since the Gentiles would presumably
address their request to the teacher.
In variant 2) autwn presumably serves as Subject of both the participle and the main verb, but in that event the main verb
should take precedence and the pronoun should be nominative, not genitive. However one might explain the motivation for such
a change—from 1) to 2) and deleting "the Gentiles"—variant 2) is evidently wrong, even though attested by the three ancient
versions. Perhaps someone faced with variant 1) took "of the Jews" to be the referent of the participle instead of modifying
"synagogue" (like NKJV), and thought it should be Subject of the main verb as well—then, of course, "the Gentiles" were in the
way and were deleted. Then 1) might have been shortened to 2) for ‘clarity’.
I take it that the original text had: exiontwn de ek thj sunagwghj twn ioudaiwn parekaloun ta eqnh etc.

(RP,HF,NU agree that variant 1) is correct, and indeed verse 33 seems to require that Silas returned to Jerusalem; "they were
sent back . . . to the apostles", and "they" refers to Judas and Silas. The ‘problem’ is that in verse 40 Paul chooses Silas to
accompany him, so he had to be in Antioch, not Jerusalem. Accordingly the longer reading was created to solve the ’problem’.
The "some days" of verse 36 could well have been a month or two. From Antioch to Jerusalem would be a trip of some 400
miles. Silas had time to go to Jerusalem and get back to Antioch.)

At issue is a minor question of taste or style. The second set of three gives the complete formula, the first gives a shortened
form. We observe that in verse 2 there is a complete exchange between Paul and the group of disciples, and the full
introductory formula is used for both. In verse 3 there is a second complete exchange, wherein the second introductory formula
is short—should not the first introductory formula also be short, to match it? That would seem to make for better style. But the
attestation for the long form is fairly strong, 67.8% X 24.5%. Presumably the contenders are the first variants in 1) and 2), so te
wins over de. I consider that the first variant in 1) really is the better reading, as well as being attested by f 35 .

The third variant would appear to be a not very felicitous conflation. The first variant best fits the context—since the beginning of
the chapter, and before, the main participants have been presented in the first person plural. The closest finite verb on each
side of the variant in question is emeinamen, 1st plural. The information in the second variant is unnecessary but not
objectionable; if it were original there would be no need to change it. Of course, if the first variant were original there would be
no need to change it either, unless some felt it was time to remind the reader who "we" was referring to. More likely it was the
influence of the Lectionaries, since they have precisely the second variant.

Rather a dismaying picture—what to do? To begin, the variants are all participial forms of the same verb. The key seems to be
the perceived referent or antecedent of the participle. Is it "the Jews", "the Sanhedrin" or "the commander"? The best answer
from the point of view of the grammar is evidently "the Jews", which would require a masc., nom., plural form—the only
candidate is variant 1). However, there were those who took the referent to be "the Sanhedrin"—the Alexandrian MSS have
sunedrion next to the participle, separated only by wj. The grammar requires a neuter, acc., sg. form—variant 5). But, the
Sanhedrin was made up of men, so perhaps some decided it would be more appropriate to make it plural—variant 2); and
maybe even masc. besides—variant 6) [might this be assimilation to verse 15?]. Variant 3), being genitive, is really strange,

presumably takes "the commander" as the referent, but puts the form in the nom., sort of ad sensum since se is acc. But variant
2) could also be referring to the commander, precisely masc., acc., singular.
What are the requirements of the context? "The commander" as referent does not fit. Not only was it not his idea, he sent
Paul away that very night to forestall the possibility. (That the Jews should attempt to tell the commander what was in his mind
is scarcely credible.) "The Sanhedrin" as referent really doesn't fit either. to sunedrion appears in the text as the object of a
preposition, not as an initiating agent. It is "the Jews" that is the Subject of the main verb, and therefore of the two infinitives,
and our participle is working with the second infinitive, "as ones intending to inquire".
Conclusion: variant 1) is the only one that really fits the context; it is also the best attested. Although it only musters 33.1%
of the vote (including f 35 ), it is also attested by the three ancient versions—always weighty testimony. I conclude that the
Autograph read mellontej.

hinge on the three underlined words; they are:
2) krinai . . . epi se (9.7%) lat pt ,syr [6 variants]
8) krinai . . . epi sou (10.5%) [14 variants]
22) krinai . . . proj se (5.3%) [8 variants]
30) krinein . . . epi sou (4.4%) [4 variants]
34) krinein . . . epi se (1.7%) OC,TR [3 variants] [OC is in small print]
37) replaces aphgagen with five words, plus two other changes:
krinai . . . epi sou (3.2%) [2 variants]
39) completely rewrites the material:
krinai . . . proj se (3.4%) CP [6 variants]
(eight further variants) (2.9%) [8 variants].
Variant 2) presumably has the best claim to be the standard form of the addition: krinai clearly beats krinein, epi clearly
beats proj, se barely beats sou. [Although variant 8) appears to be slightly stronger than 2) numerically, the 14 internal
variants, compared to 6, effectively diminish its credibility. The main variant in 2) is far stronger than that of 8).] It is also attested
by syr and lat pt . However, although some form of the addition commands 41.1% of the MSS, there are no less than 51 variants!
What about the context? The addition makes good sense, and it fits nicely. But, it is not really necessary; that information
Felix already knew. The text reads quite well without the addition also. I conclude that the short form was judged to be abrupt or
incomplete, giving rise to the addition; presumably the Autograph did not contain it. Since Tertullus was an orator he may well
have actually said what is in the addition, plus a good deal more besides, but did Luke write it? (The incidents recorded in Acts
were well known by many contemporaries, and there were many written accounts in circulation (Luke 1:1), so it was entirely
predictable that a variety of historically correct material would be added, here and there, to Luke’s account.)
The external evidence, though divided, is adequate to resolve this case: 58.9% against a severely fragmented 41.1%. The
ancient versions, being divided, do not help us much this time. Although 59% is not a strong majority, by any means, still, the
severe fragmentation of the 41% sort of leaves variant 1) without a worthy opponent. Variant 1) wins in "Antiquity", "Number",

was always a little on the short side, and several years in chains probably does little to improve one’s humor; Festus has just
interrupted and insulted him [in fact, the introduction was insulting]—Paul being Paul he probably used the Indicative. In many
minuscule manuscripts the difference between a and ai is very slight; if the copyist was the least bit careless in lifting his quill
after writing the a, the extra ink could easily deceive a subsequent copyist [and notions of propriety could have entered in].)

The citation of f is based on twenty MSS—18, 35, 141, 201, 204, 386, 824, 928, 1249, 1503, 1548, 1732, 1855, 1864, 1865,
1897, 2303, 2466, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. None of them is a ‘perfect’ representative of f 35 in Acts, as it
stands [an unreasonable expectation, presumably, for a book this size]. For all that, several come quite close! Of the MSS I
have collated [there may be better ones yet to be done], 1864 deviates from the presumed family profile five times, 18 seven
times and 2723 eight times. Turning to their exemplars, that of 35 was off by two, that of 18 and 1864 by three, that of 2723 by
four, that of 1865 by five, and that of 824, 1503 and 1897 by six. The uniformity is impressive. Since these MSS come from all
over the Mediterranean world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople, Aegean, Trikala, Mt. Athos [six different monasteries],
Grottaferrata, Vatican, etc.) they are certainly representative of the family, giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in
the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—HF,RP,OC,TR,CP,NU. HF = Hodges-Farstad, RP = Robinson-
Pierpont (2005), OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of N-A 26 /
UBS 3 ).
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for each variant within either ( ) or
[ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not
covered there I used Reuben Swanson’s excellent collations (New Testament Greek Manuscripts: Acts [Ed. Reuben Swanson,
Pasadena, CA: William Carey International University Press, 1998]). For Acts Swanson collated 60 MSS, thirteen being
fragmentary (for any given variant set there will usually be at least 45 MSS listed), and I occasionally supplemented from
Scrivener and von Soden—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine variants listed with 5 to 1%
support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 2%; for non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support
the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 4%; where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error
should rarely exceed ± 15%— since Swanson collated considerably fewer MSS for Acts than he did for Paul’s epistles, and
since I find TuT to be less trustworthy here than in other books, my guesses as to percentages are more tentative than usual,
except that I guarantee the witness of f 35 .
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier; the same
holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses, and
printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and may be

1 Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of Romans is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book gives
explanation about the apparatus.

The citation of f is based on twenty MSS—18, 35, 141, 201, 204, 386, 824, 928, 1249, 1503, 1548, 1637, 1855, 1864, 1865,
1892, 1897, 2466, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. Only 2723 is a ‘perfect’ representative of f 35 in Romans, as it
stands, as were the exemplars of another three. The uniformity is impressive. Since these MSS come from all over the
Mediterranean world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople, Aegean, Trikala, Mt. Athos [six different monasteries],
Grottaferrata, Vatican, etc.) they are certainly representative of the family, giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in
the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of
N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for each variant within either ( )
or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not
covered there I used Reuben Swanson’s excellent collations (New Testament Greek Manuscripts: Galatians [Ed. Reuben
Swanson, Wheaton: Tyndale House Publishers, 2001]). For Romans Swanson collated 81 MSS, three being fragmentary (for
any given variant set there will usually be at least 75 MSS listed), and I occasionally supplemented from Scrivener and von
Soden—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of these sources.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine variants listed with 5 to
1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6%
support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 2%; where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the
margin of error should rarely exceed ± 10%—by comparing Swanson with TuT, I believe one can make a fairly accurate
extrapolation.
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier; the
same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses,
and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and
may be downloaded free from http://www.bibleworks.com/fonts.hmtl.

Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book gives
explanation about the apparatus.

6 The citation of f 35 is based on sixteen MSS—18, 35, 201, 204, 386, 444, 928, 1249, 1548, 1637, 1855, 1892, 1897, 2466, 2587
and 2723—all of which I collated myself. No one of them is a ‘perfect’ representative of f 35 in 1 Corinthians, as it stands, nor
were their immediate exemplars. 2723 has two variations from the presumed archetype, 35 has three (but 35’s exemplar only
had one), 18 has five (but its exemplar only had two); the exemplar of 2466 had three, that of 204, 386, 1637 and 2587 had
four; and so on. For a book this size the uniformity is impressive. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean
world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople, Trikala, Mt. Athos [four different monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly
representative of the family, giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus— HF,RP,OC,TR,CP,NU. HF = Hodges-Farstad, RP =
Robinson-Pierpont (2005), OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I
have not collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP =
Complutensian Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still
that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for each variant within either ( )
or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not
covered there I used Reuben Swanson’s excellent collations (New Testament Greek Manuscripts: 1 Corinthians [Ed. Reuben
Swanson, Carol Stream, IL: Tyndale House Publishers, 2005]). For 1 Corinthians Swanson collated 83 MSS, six being
fragmentary (for any given variant set there will usually be at least 75 MSS listed), and I occasionally supplemented from
Scrivener and von Soden—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine variants listed with 5 to
1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6%
support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 2%; where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the
margin of error should rarely exceed ± 10%—by comparing Swanson with TuT, I believe one can make a fairly accurate
extrapolation.
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier; the
same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses,
and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and
may be downloaded free from http://www.bibleworks.com/fonts.hmtl.

Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of Galatians is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book
gives explanation about the apparatus.

The citation of f is based on eighteen MSS—18, 35, 201, 204, 386, 444, 547, 928, 1249, 1548, 1637, 1725, 1855, 1892,
1897, 2466, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. No one of them is a ‘perfect’ representative of f 35 in 2 Corinthians,
as it stands, nor were their immediate exemplars. 2723 has two variations from the presumed archetype, 35 and 204 have
four (but 35’s exemplar only had two), 18, 444 and 2587 have five (but 2587’s exemplar only had one, while those of 18 and
444 only had two). For a book this size the uniformity is impressive. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean
world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople, Trikala, Mt. Athos [five different monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly
representative of the family, giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of
N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for each variant within either ( )
or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not
covered there I used Reuben Swanson’s excellent collations (New Testament Greek Manuscripts: 2 Corinthians [Ed. Reuben
Swanson, Carol Stream, IL: Tyndale House Publishers, 2005]). For 2 Corinthians Swanson collated 83 MSS, five being
fragmentary (for any given variant set there will usually be at least 75 MSS listed), and I occasionally supplemented from
Scrivener and von Soden—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine variants listed with 5 to
1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6%
support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 2%; where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the
margin of error should rarely exceed ± 10%—by comparing Swanson with TuT, I believe one can make a fairly accurate
extrapolation.
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier; the
same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses,
and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and

Once upon a time I was led to believe that von Soden’s work was basically reliable. This was
important because his work underlies both the Hodges-Farstad and Robinson-Pierpont editions of the
Majority Text. However, the Text und Textwert (TuT) 1 collations demonstrate objectively that not
infrequently Soden is seriously off the mark. Maurice Robinson's collations of the Pericope Adulterae 2
demonstrate objectively that Soden is very seriously wrong there. With reference to Soden’s treatment
of codex 223 K.W. Clark says, “Furthermore, our collation has revealed sixty-two errors in 229
readings treated by von Soden.” 3 27% in error (62 ÷ 229) is altogether too much, and what is true of
MS 223 may be true of other MSS as well. Hoskier was not entirely mistaken in his evaluation. For
myself, I must reconsider the evidence for the whole New Testament.
Herewith a new Greek text and critical apparatus for Galatians. As explained elsewhere, I now
use f 35 instead of K r . I further insist that f 35 should be factored out of the broad Byzantine tradition and
be presented separately, because I now believe that f 35 is earlier than K x , etc., being the base from
which the others departed. 4
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for
each variant within either ( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be
reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not covered there I used Reuben Swanson’s
excellent collations, 5 occasionally supplementing from Scrivener and von Soden—the percentages
offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of these sources. I have
determined the reading of f 35 on the basis of sixteen minuscules—18, 35, 201, 204, 328, 386, 444,
928, 1248, 1249, 1548, 1637, 1855, 1892, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. 6 The profile
of f 35 is quite clear in Galatians, made up of perhaps eighteen readings (the rest of the time it is
accompanied by the Byzantine bulk, or most of it). There are only two splinter groups involving so
many as three MSS (of the 16), and they have different rosters. Since the MSS come from places so
diverse as Jerusalem, Sinai, Trikala, Mt. Athos (four different monasteries), Constantinople and Rome,
the chances that they do not represent the main line of transmission are, quite frankly, nil. So here you
have the archetypical Text of f 35 , without question.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine
variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for
non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 2%;
where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error should rarely exceed
± 10%—by comparing Swanson with TuT, I believe one can make a fairly accurate extrapolation.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. 7 I wish to say
that in Galatians we have been well served by the Majority Text (HF,RP,OC) and the Textus
1
Text und Textwert der Griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments (Ed. Kurt Aland, Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, 1991),
volume 18. For Galatians they collated some 750 MSS (including fragments) for seventeen variant sets (one of which is not
relevant to my apparatus, but I divided one into two and another into three, so I show nineteen).
2
So far as I know, this material has not yet been published; Robinson gave me the opportunity of working with a private copy of
his collation pages.

“My Pilgrimage toward f 35 = K r = M 7 in the PA and M c in Revelation”.)
5
New Testament Greek Manuscripts: Galatians (Ed. Reuben Swanson, Wheaton: Tyndale House Publishers, 1999). For
Galatians Swanson collated 78 MSS, six being fragmentary—for any given variant set there will usually be at least 70 MSS
listed.
6
Minuscules 204, 1637 and 2587 would appear to be perfect representatives of the family in this book. 18, 35, 386, 444, 928
and 2723 have one variation from the presumed family profile in Galatians; 1248 has four, 201 and 1249 have six, 1548 has
nine, while 328, 1855 and 1892 have eleven. I knew that these MSS were f 35 because of their profiles in the TuT series,
which is why I acquired copies of them, but had no way of knowing beforehand what the actual quality of each would be.
Most of these scribes did careful work.
7
RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005) [RP registers only three splits in the Byzantine bulk, but I would say there are at least fourteen,
with perhaps five more], HF = Hodges-Farstad, OC = the text of the Orthodox Churches, TR = Textus Receptus, CP =
Complutensian Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still
that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).

Receptus. HF differs eight times from my text; RP differs nine times; OC differs eleven times—none of
which make much difference in the meaning. The fourteen times that TR differs also make little
difference in the meaning (and so for the fifty-seven [!] times in CP). The eclectic text (NU) has 82
errors (as I see it), perhaps sixteen of which make some difference in the meaning, some of them
serious. So how do I justify this new text and apparatus? Well, just the critical apparatus justifies the
edition, being by far the most informative with reference to the large Byzantine majority and to f 35 ,
which is both ancient and independent of the rest of the tradition. Also, in this book my Text is
sufficiently distinct from the rest to justify its existence. For those who believe in an inerrant Text, as I
do, each word is important (and even the spelling may prove to be significant). 1
A word of explanation about my use of accents and punctuation: 1) since the accents are
unnecessary, for the most part (especially for silent reading) [and presumably were not part of the
Original], I use them mostly with monosyllabic words to avoid ambiguity; 2) on the other hand,
aspiration or ‘rough breathing’ is phonemic, having the value of a letter, and needs to be written (but
not the so-called ‘smooth breathing’); 3) all punctuation marks are as in English, except that in place of
the semi-colon I use the raised dot (so as not to confuse those who would take it as a question mark).
Where all six printed editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants
with at least [10%] attestation. Also, I have arbitrarily included the movable-nu in the Text, as well as
the full form of ou`twj, at all points. 2
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th
century or earlier (with the exception of f 35 representatives, as noted below); the same holds for the
sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other
witnesses, and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading.

I venture to affirm to the reader that all original wording of Galatians is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the
apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Lk. 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]).

Anyone who wishes to apply a numeric code to this text should keep that in mind.

(Genesis 17:5) the intervocalic aspiration in Hebrew is adequately represented in English by ‘h’; but so far as I know, there is
no way in Greek to indicate intervocalic aspiration within a word—the only alternative to losing the aspiration altogether would
be to place it at the beginning of the word, as f 35 does.]

Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD
Once upon a time I was led to believe that von Soden’s work was basically reliable. This was
important because his work underlies both the Hodges-Farstad and Robinson-Pierpont editions of the
Majority Text. However, the Text und Textwert (TuT) 1 collations demonstrate objectively that not
infrequently Soden is seriously off the mark. Maurice Robinson's collations of the Pericope Adulterae 2
demonstrate objectively that Soden is very seriously wrong there. With reference to Soden’s treatment
of codex 223 K.W. Clark says, “Furthermore, our collation has revealed sixty-two errors in 229
readings treated by von Soden.” 3 27% in error (62 ÷ 229) is altogether too much, and what is true of
MS 223 may be true of other MSS as well. Hoskier was not entirely mistaken in his evaluation. For
myself, I must reconsider the evidence for the whole New Testament.
Herewith a new Greek text and critical apparatus for Ephesians. As explained elsewhere, I
now use f 35 instead of K r . I further insist that f 35 should be factored out of the broad Byzantine tradition
and be presented separately, because I now believe that f 35 is earlier than K x , etc., being the base
from which the others departed. 4
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for
each variant within either ( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be
reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not covered there I had to revert to von Soden 5 and
the apparatus of N-A 27 , supplementing from other sources where possible (Scrivener and Tischendorf)
—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources. I have determined the reading of f 35 on the basis of sixteen minuscules—18, 35, 201,
204, 328, 386, 444, 928, 1248, 1548, 1637, 1855, 1892, 1897, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated
myself. 6 The profile of f 35 is quite clear in Ephesians, made up of perhaps nine readings (the rest of
the time it is accompanied by the Byzantine bulk, or most of it). There is only one splinter group
involving so many as three MSS (of the 16), the difference being in one letter (at 5:5) [in this particular
case the change probably occurred independently and does not reflect a common ancestor]. Since the
MSS come from places so diverse as Jerusalem, Sinai, Trikala, Mt. Athos (four different monasteries),
Constantinople and Rome, the chances that they do not represent the main line of transmission are,
quite frankly, nil. So here you have the archetypical Text of f 35 , without question.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine
variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for
non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 3%;
where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error should rarely exceed
± 15%, but I do not have the same level of confidence here as in the General Epistles (no ECM).
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. 7 I wish to say
that in Ephesians we have been reasonably well served by the Majority Text (HF,RP,OC) and the
Textus Receptus. RP differs eleven times from my text; HF differs twelve times; OC differs fourteen
1 Text und Textwert der Griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments (Ed. Kurt Aland, Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, 1991),
volume 18. For Ephesians they collated some 750 MSS (including fragments) for eighteen variant sets.
2 So far as I know, this material has not yet been published; Robinson gave me the opportunity of working with a private copy of
his collation pages.
3 Eight American Praxapostoloi (Kenneth W. Clark, Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1941, p. 12).
4 “The Dating of K r (alias f 35 , nee f 18 ) Revisited”, “When is a Recension?”, “Early Uncial Support for f 35 in the General Epistles”,
“The Divine Preservation of the Original Wording of the General Epistles” and “Archetype in the General Epistles—f 35 yes, K x
no”. (See also “Concerning the Text of the Pericope Adulterae” and “My Pilgrimage toward f 35 = K r = M 7 in the PA and M c in
Revelation”.)
5 Die Schriften des Neuen Testaments in ihrer ältesten erreichbaren Textgestalt (Hermann von Soden, Göttingen: Vanderhoeck
und Ruprecht, 1911-1913).
6 Minuscules 928 and 2723 would appear to be perfect representatives of the family in this book. 18, 35, 386, 444 and 1897
have one variation from the presumed family profile in Ephesians; 204, 1548, 1637, 1855 and 2587 have two, 201 and 1248
have six, 328 has eight, while 1892 has nine. I knew that these MSS were f 35 because of their profiles in the TuT series,
which is why I acquired copies of them, but had no way of knowing beforehand what the actual quality of each would be. All
but four of these scribes did careful work.
7 RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005) [RP registers only two splits in the Byzantine bulk, but I would say there are at least seven,
with perhaps five more], HF = Hodges-Farstad, OC = the text of the Orthodox Churches, TR = Textus Receptus, CP =
Complutensian Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still
that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).

times—only one or two of which make much difference in the meaning (not serious). The nineteen
times that TR differs also make little difference in the meaning (and so for the twenty-four times in CP).
The eclectic text (NU) has 86 errors (as I see it), perhaps fifteen of which make some difference in the
meaning, plus six that are more serious. So how do I justify this new text and apparatus? Well, just the
critical apparatus justifies the edition, being by far the most informative with reference to the large
Byzantine majority and to f 35 , which is both ancient and independent of the rest of the tradition. Also, in
this book my Text is sufficiently distinct from the rest to justify its existence. Further, I have retrieved
from the ‘attic’ of neglect the following readings that are probably original—1:13 hmeij, 2:17 hmin, 4:13
katanthsomen. Three for a book the size of Ephesians may not seem like so much, but for those who
believe in an inerrant Text, as I do, each word is important (and even the spelling may prove to be
significant). 1 None of the readings is major, but they do sharpen the focus.
A word of explanation about my use of accents and punctuation: 1) since the accents are
unnecessary, for the most part (especially for silent reading) [and presumably were not part of the
Original], I use them mostly with monosyllabic words to avoid ambiguity; 2) on the other hand,
aspiration or ‘rough breathing’ is phonemic, having the value of a letter, and needs to be written (but
not the so-called ‘smooth breathing’); 3) all punctuation marks are as in English, except that in place of
the semi-colon I use the raised dot (so as not to confuse those who would take it as a question mark).
Where all six printed editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants
with at least [10%] attestation. Also, I have arbitrarily included the movable-nu in the Text, as well as
the full form of ou`twj, at all points. 2
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th
century or earlier (with the exception of f 35 representatives, as noted below); the same holds for the
sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other
witnesses, and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading.

1 I venture to affirm to the reader that all original wording of Ephesians is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in
the apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Lk. 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]).
2 Anyone who wishes to apply a numeric code to this text should keep that in mind.
3 Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD.

FILIPPHSIOUS

Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD
Once upon a time I was led to believe that von Soden’s work was basically reliable. This was
important because his work underlies both the Hodges-Farstad and Robinson-Pierpont editions of the
Majority Text. However, the Text und Textwert (TuT) 1 collations demonstrate objectively that not
infrequently Soden is seriously off the mark. Maurice Robinson's collations of the Pericope Adulterae 2
demonstrate objectively that Soden is very seriously wrong there. With reference to Soden’s treatment
of codex 223 K.W. Clark says, “Furthermore, our collation has revealed sixty-two errors in 229
readings treated by von Soden.” 3 27% in error (62 ÷ 229) is altogether too much, and what is true of
MS 223 may be true of other MSS as well. Hoskier was not entirely mistaken in his evaluation. For
myself, I must reconsider the evidence for the whole New Testament.
Herewith a new Greek text and critical apparatus for Philippians. As explained elsewhere, I
now use f 35 instead of K r . I further insist that f 35 should be factored out of the broad Byzantine tradition
and be presented separately, because I now believe that f 35 is earlier than K x , etc., being the base
from which the others departed. 4
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for
each variant within either ( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be
reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not covered there I had to revert to von Soden 5 and
the apparatus of N-A 27 , supplementing from other sources where possible (Scrivener and Tischendorf)
—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources. I have determined the reading of f 35 on the basis of eleven minuscules—18, 35, 201,
204, 328, 386, 432, 1248, 1897, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. 6 I hope to acquire and
collate copies of a number of further representatives of the family, so as to identify its profile with still
greater confidence, but since there are no significant splits so far, the distinctive profile presented here
(made up of about 10 readings) is most likely correct.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine
variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for
non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 3%;
where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error should rarely exceed
± 15%, but I do not have the same level of confidence here as in the General Epistles (no ECM).
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. 7 I wish to say
that in Philippians we have been well served by the Majority Text (HF,RP,OC) and the Textus
Receptus. HF differs five times from my text; RP differs eight times; OC differs eight times—none of
which make much difference in the meaning. The sixteen times that TR differs also make little
difference in the meaning (and so for the fourteen times in CP). The eclectic text (NU) has fifty-seven
errors (as I see it), perhaps ten of which make some difference in the meaning. So how do I justify this
1 Text und Textwert der Griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments (Ed. Kurt Aland, Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, 1991),
volume 18. For Philippians they collated some 750 MSS (including fragments) for eleven variant sets (but three are irrelevant
to my apparatus, so I show eight).
2 So far as I know, this material has not yet been published; Robinson gave me the opportunity of working with a private copy of
his collation pages.
3 Eight American Praxapostoloi (Kenneth W. Clark, Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1941, p. 12).
4 “The Dating of K r (alias f 35 , nee f 18 ) Revisited”, “When is a Recension?”, “Early Uncial Support for f 35 in the General Epistles”,
“The Divine Preservation of the Original Wording of the General Epistles” and “Archetype in the General Epistles—f 35 yes, K x
no”. (See also “Concerning the Text of the Pericope Adulterae” and “My Pilgrimage toward f 35 = K r = M 7 in the PA and M c in
Revelation”.)
5 Die Schriften des Neuen Testaments in ihrer ältesten erreichbaren Textgestalt (Hermann von Soden, Göttingen: Vanderhoeck
und Ruprecht, 1911-1913).
6 Cursive 35 and the exemplars of 204 and 2723 would appear to be perfect representatives of the family in this book. 18 and
386 have one variation from the presumed family profile in Philippians, 328 and 2587 have two, 201 has three, 1248 and
1897 have four, while 432 has seventeen. I knew that these MSS were f 35 because of their profiles in the TuT series, which is
why I acquired copies of them, but had no way of knowing beforehand what the actual quality of each would be. All but one of
these scribes did careful work.
7 RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF = Hodges-Farstad, OC = the text of the Orthodox Churches, TR = Textus Receptus, CP =
Complutensian Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still
that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).

new text and apparatus? Well, just the critical apparatus justifies the edition, being by far the most
informative with reference to the large Byzantine majority and to f 35 , which is both ancient and
independent of the rest of the tradition. Also, in this book my Text is sufficiently distinct from the rest to
justify its existence. But more important, from my point of view, I have retrieved from the ‘attic’ of
neglect the following readings that are probably original—1:20 paradokian, 2:1 ti , 2:4 to, 2:30
plhrwsh. Four for a book the size of Philippians may not seem like so much, but for those who
believe in an inerrant Text, as I do, each word is important (and even the spelling may prove to be
significant). 1 None of the readings is major, but they do sharpen the focus.
A word of explanation about my use of accents and punctuation: 1) since the accents are
unnecessary, for the most part (especially for silent reading) [and presumably were not part of the
Original], I use them mostly with monosyllabic words to avoid ambiguity; 2) on the other hand,
aspiration or ‘rough breathing’ is phonemic, having the value of a letter, and needs to be written (but
not the so-called ‘smooth breathing’); 3) all punctuation marks are as in English, except that in place of
the semi-colon I use the raised dot (so as not to confuse those who would take it as a question mark).
Where all six printed editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants
with at least [10%] attestation. Also, I have arbitrarily included the movable-nu in the Text, as well as
the full form of ou`twj, at all points. 2
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th
century or earlier (with the exception of f 35 representatives, as noted below); the same holds for the
sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other
witnesses, and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading.

I venture to affirm to the reader that all original wording of Philippians is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in
the apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Lk. 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]).

Anyone who wishes to apply a numeric code to this text should keep that in mind.

QESSALONIKEIS QESSALONIKEIS A
A
Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD
Once upon a time I was led to believe that von Soden’s work was basically reliable. This was
important because his work is basic to both the Hodges-Farstad and Robinson-Pierpont editions of the
Majority Text. However, the Text und Textwert (TuT) 1 collations demonstrate objectively that not
infrequently Soden is seriously off the mark. Maurice Robinson's collations of the Pericope Adulterae 2
demonstrate objectively that Soden is very seriously wrong there. With reference to Soden’s treatment
of codex 223 K.W. Clark says, “Furthermore, our collation has revealed sixty-two errors in 229
readings treated by von Soden.” 3 27% in error (62 ÷ 229) is altogether too much, and what is true of
MS 223 may be true of other MSS as well. Hoskier was not entirely mistaken in his evaluation. For
myself, I must reconsider the evidence for the whole NT.
Herewith a new Greek text and critical apparatus for 1 Thessalonians. As explained
elsewhere, I now use f 35 instead of K r . I further insist that f 35 should be factored out of the broad
Byzantine tradition and be presented separately, because I now believe that f 35 is earlier than K x , etc.,
being the base from which the others departed. 4
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for
each variant within either ( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be
reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not covered there I had to revert to von Soden 5 and
the apparatus of N-A 27 , supplementing from other sources where possible (Scrivener and Tischendorf)
—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources. I have determined the reading of f 35 on the basis of cursives 18, 35, 201, 204 and
2723. For 201 I used Scrivener’s collation; the rest I collated myself. 6 I hope to acquire and collate
copies of a number of further representatives of the family, so as to identify its profile with greater
confidence.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine
variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for
non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 3%;
where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error should rarely exceed
± 15%, but I do not have the same level of confidence here as in the Generals (no ECM).
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. 7 I wish to
emphasize that in 1 Thessalonians we have been well served by the Majority Text (HF,RP,OC) and
the Textus Receptus. OC differs eight times from my text, two being in small letters; RP differs seven
times, plus one set of brackets; HF differs nine times—none of them make much difference in the
meaning. The nineteen times that TR differs also make little difference in the meaning (and so for the
eighteen times in CP). The eclectic text (NU) has forty-eight errors (as I see it), perhaps nine of which
make some difference in the meaning, none serious. So how do I justify this new text and apparatus?
Well, just the critical apparatus justifies the edition, being by far the most informative with reference to
the large Byzantine majority and to f 35 , which is both ancient and independent of the rest of the
tradition. But more important, from my point of view, I have retrieved from the ‘attic’ of neglect the
following readings that are probably original—1:7 kai (minus en th), 1:9 umwn, 4:9 gar (minus
1 Text und Textwert der Griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments (Ed. Kurt Aland, Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, 1991),
volume 19. For 1 Thessalonians they collated some 750 MSS for five variant sets.
2 So far as I know, this material has not yet been published; Robinson gave me the opportunity of working with a private copy of
his collation pages.
3 Eight American Praxapostoloi (Kenneth W. Clark, Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1941, p. 12).
4 “The Dating of K r (alias f 35 , nee f 18 ) Revisited”, “When is a Recension?”, and “Early Uncial Support for f 35 in the General
Epistles”. (See also “Concerning the Text of the Pericope Adulterae” and “My Pilgrimage toward f 35 = K r = M 7 in the PA and
M c in Revelation”.)
5 Die Schriften des Neuen Testaments in ihrer ältesten erreichbaren Textgestalt (Hermann von Soden, Göttingen: Vanderhoeck
und Ruprecht, 1911-1913).
6 Cursives 18, 2723 and the exemplar of 35 would appear to be perfect representatives of the family in this book. 35 and 204
each have two variations from the presumed family profile in 1 Thessalonians (as corrected 35 is perfect), while 201 has five.
7 RP = Robinson-Pierpont (1991), HF = Hodges-Farstad, OC = the text of the Orthodox Churches, TR = Textus Receptus, CP =
Complutensian Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still
that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).

umeij), 5:10 grhgoroumen and kaqeudomen (a majority reading apparently not to be found in any
printed text). Five for a book the size of 1 Thessalonians is not inconsequent. None of the readings is
major, but they do sharpen the focus. And for those who believe in an inerrant Text, as I do, each
word is important (and even the spelling may prove to be significant). 1
A word of explanation about my use of accents and punctuation: 1) since the accents are
unnecessary, for the most part (especially for silent reading) [and presumably were not part of the
Original], I use them only with monosyllabic words to avoid ambiguity; 2) on the other hand, aspiration
or ‘rough breathing’ is phonemic, having the value of a letter, and needs to be written (but not the socalled
‘smooth breathing’); 3) all punctuation marks are as in English, except that in place of the semicolon
I use the raised dot (so as not to confuse those who would take it as a question mark). Also, I
have arbitrarily included the movable-nu in the Text, as well as the full form of ou`twj, at all points. 2

I venture to affirm to the reader that all original wording of 1 Thessalonians is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at
least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Lk. 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the
MSS]).

Anyone who wishes to apply a numeric code to this text should keep that in mind.

QESSALONIKEIS QESSALONIKEIS QESSALONIKEIS B

Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD
Once upon a time I was led to believe that von Soden’s work was basically reliable. This was
important because his work is basic to both the Hodges-Farstad and Robinson-Pierpont editions of
the Majority Text. However, the Text und Textwert (TuT) 1 collations demonstrate objectively that not
infrequently Soden is seriously off the mark. Maurice Robinson's collations of the Pericope
Adulterae 2 demonstrate objectively that Soden is very seriously wrong there. With reference to
Soden’s treatment of codex 223 K.W. Clark says, “Furthermore, our collation has revealed sixty-two
errors in 229 readings treated by von Soden.” 3 27% in error (62 ÷ 229) is altogether too much, and
what is true of MS 223 may be true of other MSS as well. Hoskier was not entirely mistaken in his
evaluation. For myself, I must reconsider the evidence for the whole NT.
Herewith a new Greek text and critical apparatus for 2 Thessalonians. As explained
elsewhere, I now use f 35 instead of K r . I further insist that f 35 should be factored out of the broad
Byzantine tradition and be presented separately, because I now believe that f 35 is earlier than K x ,
etc., being the base from which the others departed. 4
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for
each variant within either ( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be
reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not covered there I had to revert to von Soden 5 and
the apparatus of N-A 27 , supplementing from other sources where possible (Scrivener and
Tischendorf)—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a
comparison of these sources. I have determined the reading of f 35 on the basis of cursives 18, 35,
201, 204 and 2723. For 201 I used Scrivener’s collation; the rest I collated myself. 6
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine
variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for
non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 3%;
where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error should rarely
exceed ± 15%, but I do not have the same level of confidence here as in the Generals (no ECM).
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. 7 I wish to
emphasize that in 2 Thessalonians we have been well served by the Majority Text (HF,RP,OC) and
the Textus Receptus. The RP text is the same as mine, but uses brackets twice; HF differs once; OC
differs once (an obvious mistake), but uses small print twice (precisely where RP uses brackets); TR
differs three times. On the other hand, the eclectic text (NU) has twenty-eight errors (as I see it),
perhaps seven of which make some difference in the meaning, none serious. So how do I justify this
new text and apparatus? Well, just the critical apparatus justifies the edition, being by far the most
informative with reference to the large Byzantine majority and to f 35 , which is both ancient and
independent of the rest of the tradition. I reject RP’s use of brackets, and although the differences
from HF, OC and TR are slight, for those who believe in an inerrant Text, as I do, each word is
important (and even the spelling may prove to be significant). 8
1 Text und Textwert der Griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments (Ed. Kurt Aland, Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, 1991),
volume 19. For 2 Thessalonians they collated some 750 MSS for four variant sets.
2 So far as I know, this material has not yet been published; Robinson gave me the opportunity of working with a private copy
of his collation pages.
3 Eight American Praxapostoloi (Kenneth W. Clark, Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1941, p. 12).
4 “The Dating of K r (alias f 35 , nee f 18 ) Revisited”, “When is a Recension?”, and “Early Uncial Support for f 35 in the General
Epistles”. (See also “Concerning the Text of the Pericope Adulterae” and “My Pilgrimage toward f 35 = K r = M 7 in the PA and
M c in Revelation”.)
5 Die Schriften des Neuen Testaments in ihrer ältesten erreichbaren Textgestalt (Hermann von Soden, Göttingen:
Vanderhoeck und Ruprecht, 1911-1913).
6 Cursives 18, 35, 204 and 2327 appear to be perfect representatives of the family in 2 Thessalonians, while 201 has two
variants.
7 RP = Robinson-Pierpont (1991), HF = Hodges-Farstad, OC = the text of the Orthodox Churches, TR = Textus Receptus, CP
= Complutensian Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is
still that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).
8 I venture to affirm to the reader that all original wording of 2 Thessalonians is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at
least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Lk. 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the
MSS]).

A word of explanation about my use of accents and punctuation: 1) since the accents are
unnecessary, for the most part (especially for silent reading) [and presumably were not part of the
Original], I use them only with monosyllabic words to avoid ambiguity; 2) on the other hand,
aspiration or ‘rough breathing’ is phonemic, having the value of a letter, and needs to be written (but
not the so-called ‘smooth breathing’); 3) all punctuation marks are as in English, except that in place
of the semi-colon I use the raised dot (so as not to confuse those who would take it as a question
mark). Also, I have arbitrarily included the movable-nu in the Text, as well as the full form of ou`twj,
at all points. 1

2 Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. As an arbitrary decision, I have
limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier (with the exception of f 35 representatives, as
noted above); the same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by
all other witnesses, and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading [what it also
means is that I haven’t gotten around to checking all the evidence, so don’t take it too literally].

Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of 1 Timothy is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book
gives explanation about the apparatus.

explanation of this statement of evidence, and a discussion of the implications, please see the third edition of Identity,
footnote 5 on pages 71-2.) [The variant chosen by NU is a grammatical impossibility (no antecedent for the pronoun), besides
being a stupidity. What is a ‘mystery’ about any human male being manifested in flesh? All human beings have bodies. In the
absence of concrete evidence, the claim that this is a quote lifted from a known hymn or poem becomes no more than a
desperate attempt to ‘save’ a choice that besides being stupid is also perverse (because of the theological consequences).]

1 The citation of f 35 is based on seventeen MSS—18, 35, 201, 204, 328, 386, 444, 928, 1249, 1548, 1637, 1855, 1892, 1897
[1:1-3:16], 2466, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. None of them is a ‘perfect’ representative of f 35 in 1 Timothy,
as it stands, but the exemplars of 444 and 2466 probably were. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean world
(Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople, Trikala, Mt. Athos [four different monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly
representative of the family, giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of
N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for each variant, within either
( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are
not covered there I had to revert to von Soden and the apparatus of N-A 27 , supplementing from other sources where possible
(Scrivener and Tischendorf)—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine variants listed with 5 to
1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6%
support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 3%; where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the
margin of error should rarely exceed ± 15%.
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier; the
same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses,
and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and
may be downloaded free from http://www.bibleworks.com/fonts.hmtl.

Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of 2 Timothy is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book
gives explanation about the apparatus.

clothes (in English we speak of ‘putting on’ clothes), except that for this use the verb is normally in the middle voice, not the
active, as here. But in the context the description of such persons, given in verses 2-5, does not agree with ‘sneaking’ or
‘worming’—they enter openly, exuding confidence and competence. enduw is probably correct.)

The citation of f is based on sixteen MSS—18, 35, 201, 204, 328, 386, 444, 928, 1249, 1548, 1637, 1855, 1892, 2466, 2587
and 2723—all of which I collated myself. None of them is a ‘perfect’ representative of f 35 in 2 Timothy, as it stands, but the
exemplar of 2723 probably was. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos,
Constantinople, Trikala, Mt. Athos [four different monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly representative of the family,
giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of
N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for each variant, within either
( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are
not covered there I had to revert to von Soden and the apparatus of N-A 27 , supplementing from other sources where possible
(Scrivener and Tischendorf)—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine variants listed with 5 to
1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6%
support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 3%; where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the
margin of error should rarely exceed ± 15%.
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier; the
same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses,
and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and

Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of Titus is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book
gives explanation about the apparatus.

FILHMONA
Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD
I wish to emphasize that in Philemon we have been well served by the Majority Text
(HF,RP,OC) and the Textus Receptus. Their variations make little difference in the meaning. On the
other hand, the eclectic text (NU) has twenty errors (as I see it), almost one per verse—surely not a
very good showing.
From my point of view, I have retrieved from the ‘attic’ of neglect the following readings that
are probably original—verse 1 ihsou cristou and verse 25 ihsou. Two for a book the size of
Philemon is not inconsequent, and for those who believe in an inerrant Text, as I do, each word is

1 I venture to affirm to the reader that all original wording of Philemon is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the
apparatus. “Diminish not a word” Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Lk. 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]).
2 Both the text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. In Philemon, all of our five
representatives of f 35 follow the presumed family profile perfectly except one: 201 has one variation (corrected—so its
exemplar was presumably perfect).

~EBRAIOUS
Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD
Once upon a time I was led to believe that von Soden’s work was basically reliable. This was
important because his work underlies both the Hodges-Farstad and Robinson-Pierpont editions of the
Majority Text. However, the Text und Textwert (TuT) 1 collations demonstrate objectively that not
infrequently Soden is seriously off the mark. Maurice Robinson's collations of the Pericope Adulterae 2
demonstrate objectively that Soden is very seriously wrong there. With reference to Soden’s treatment
of codex 223 K.W. Clark says, “Furthermore, our collation has revealed sixty-two errors in 229
readings treated by von Soden.” 3 27% in error (62 ÷ 229) is altogether too much, and what is true of
MS 223 may be true of other MSS as well. Hoskier was not entirely mistaken in his evaluation. For
myself, I must reconsider the evidence for the whole New Testament.
Herewith a new Greek text and critical apparatus for Hebrews. As explained elsewhere, I now
use f 35 instead of K r . I further insist that f 35 should be factored out of the broad Byzantine tradition and
be presented separately, because I now believe that f 35 is earlier than K x , etc., being the base from
which the others departed. 4
In the statements of evidence I have included the percentage of manuscript attestation for
each variant within either ( ) or [ ]. I have used ( ) for the evidence taken from TuT, which I take to be
reasonably precise. For the variant sets that are not covered there I had to revert to von Soden 5 and
the apparatus of N-A 27 , supplementing from other sources where possible (Scrivener and Tischendorf)
—the percentages offered, I have used [ ] for these, are extrapolations based on a comparison of
these sources. I have determined the reading of f 35 on the basis of thirteen minuscules—18, 35, 201,
204, 328, 386, 444, 604, 1248, 1855, 1892, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. 6 I hope to
acquire and collate copies of a number of further representatives of the family, so as to identify its
profile with still greater confidence, but since there are no significant splits so far, the distinctive profile
presented here (made up of about 21 readings) is most likely correct.
I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine
variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for
non-Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 3%;
where there is some division among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error should rarely exceed
± 15%, but I do not have the same level of confidence here as in the General Epistles (no ECM).
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. 7 A word of
explanation about my use of accents and punctuation: 1) since the accents are unnecessary, for the
most part (especially for silent reading) [and presumably were not part of the Original], I use them
mostly with monosyllabic words to avoid ambiguity; 2) on the other hand, aspiration or ‘rough
breathing’ is phonemic, having the value of a letter, and needs to be written (but not the so-called
‘smooth breathing’); 3) all punctuation marks are as in English, except that in place of the semi-colon I
1 Text und Textwert der Griechischen Handschriften des Neuen Testaments (Ed. Kurt Aland, Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, 1991),
volume 19. For Hebrews they collated some 750 MSS (including fragments) for 33 variant sets (three are irrelevant to my
apparatus, but I gained five by subdivision, so I show 35).
2 So far as I know, this material has not yet been published; Robinson gave me the opportunity of working with a private copy of
his collation pages.
3 Eight American Praxapostoloi (Kenneth W. Clark, Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1941, p. 12).
4 “The Dating of K r (alias f 35 , nee f 18 ) Revisited”, “When is a Recension?”, “Early Uncial Support for f 35 in the General Epistles”,
“The Divine Preservation of the Original Wording of the General Epistles” and “Archetype in the General Epistles—f 35 yes, K x
no”. (See also “Concerning the Text of the Pericope Adulterae” and “My Pilgrimage toward f 35 = K r = M 7 in the PA and M c in
Revelation”.)
5 Die Schriften des Neuen Testaments in ihrer ältesten erreichbaren Textgestalt (Hermann von Soden, Göttingen: Vanderhoeck
und Ruprecht, 1911-1913).
6 Although none of these MSS is a perfect representative of the family in this book, I would say that the exemplars of 35 and
2723 were so. As they stand, 2723 has one variation from the presumed family profile in Hebrews; 444, 1855 and 2587 have
two; 35 has four (as corrected it is perfect), 18 and 204 have five, 604 has seven, 386 has nine, 328 has seventeen, 1892
has twenty, 201 has twenty-six, and 1248 has thirty-three. The higher numbers are mainly made up of singular readings, so
the exemplars were much better. Thus, the exemplar of 1248 was off by ten (not 33), of 201 by twelve, of 1892 by four, of
328 by only two.
7 RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF = Hodges-Farstad, OC = the text of the Orthodox Churches, TR = Textus Receptus, CP =
Complutensian Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still
that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ).

use the raised dot (so as not to confuse those who would take it as a question mark). Where all six
printed editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants with at least
[10%] attestation. Also, I have arbitrarily included the movable-nu in the Text, as well as the full form of
ou`twj, at all points. 1
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th
century or earlier (with the exception of f 35 representatives when they diverge from the presumed
family profile in non-singular readings); the same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use
rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses, and printed editions (of the six
included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading.

Both the text and the notes are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of James is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book gives
explanation about the apparatus.

is now talking about ‘law’, but copyists, having already written ‘word’ twice, could make the change, of ‘law’ to ‘word’, almost
without thinking. If the original were ‘word’ there would be no pressure to change it to ‘law’ This reading is supported by at
least fourteen independent lines of transmission, some of which must go back to the third century, besides f 35 .)

by at least twenty independent lines of transmission, some of which must also go back to the third century.)

misunderstood to this day. [At least three of the four Alexandrian variants in this verse derive from misunderstanding.] The
translations that close the quote after the first ‘works’ don’t make sense. The hypothetical objector has disclaimed faith, so for
James to say, “Show me your faith,” doesn’t follow. James clearly teaches salvation by faith, a faith that is alive [if you’re alive
you do things]. But an orthodox Jew believes in salvation by works, so here James [who had once been one] anticipates an
objection from that quarter. The salvation-by-works person has a different faith.)

Since the demons believe the same thing, and it doesn’t do them any good, something more or different is needed.)

[When Jehovah changed Abram’s name to Abraham (Genesis 17:5) the intervocalic aspiration in Hebrew is adequately
represented in English by ‘h’; but so far as I know, there is no way in Greek to indicate intervocalic aspiration within a word—
the only alternative to losing the aspiration altogether would be to place it at the beginning of the word.]

18 The citation of f 35 is based on twenty-five MSS—18, 35, 141, 149, 201, 204, 328, 386, 432, 604, 664, 928, 1248, 1249, 1503,
1548, 1637, 1855, 1876, 1892, 1897, 2303, 2466, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. 18 and 2723 are ‘perfect’
representatives of f 35 in James as they stand, as were the exemplars of 35, 1503 and 2303. For 18 and 2723 to have no
variants after all the centuries of transmission is surely an eloquent demonstration of the faithfulness and accuracy of that
transmission. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople,
Trikala, Mt. Athos [four different monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly representative of the family, giving us the precise
family profile—it is reflected in the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
7

Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of N-
A 26 /UBS 3 ). ECM basically reproduces NU, but wherever it disagrees it is overtly cited in the apparatus. Where all six printed
editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants with at least [10%] attestation.
ECM collated 162 continuous text manuscripts (MSS) for James, including some fragments, which number represents
a full 25% of the extant (known) MSS. By a careful comparison of TuT and ECM I believe we can arrive at some reasonably
close extrapolations. Thus I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine
variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-Byzantine variants
listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error will hardly exceed ± 2%; where there is some division among the Byzantine
witnesses the margin of error will rarely exceed ± 5%.
As an arbitrary decision, I have limited the citation of individual MSS to those dated to the 5 th century or earlier; the
same holds for the sporadic citation of early versions. I use rell to indicate that the reading is supported by all other witnesses,
and printed editions (of the six included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading. The Greek font used is Bwgrkl and
may be downloaded free from http://www.bibleworks.com/fonts.hmtl.

Both the text and the notes are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of 1 Peter is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book
gives explanation about the apparatus.

recently, based upon von Soden’s apparent ascribing of some 80% attestation to the shorter reading, I was rather critical of
the longer form; I argued that Peter was writing to the “elect” [1:2], to the “redeemed” [1:18], to the “born again” [1:23], to a
“holy priesthood” [2:5], to “believers” [2:7], to “slaves of God” [2:16]—they did indeed need to grow, but not “into salvation”.
However, the evidence as presented by ECM looks quite different, and the witness of all three ancient versions is not
insignificant. Time and again Peter presents both divine sovereignty and human responsibility; God guarantees His part, we
must do our part. According to 1:5 the full manifestation [at least] of our salvation is still future. Here in 2:2 the immediately
following “if indeed” would appear to allow for some uncertainty as to their spiritual condition; Peter is emphasizing their
responsibility.)

[This delightful verse has given commentators no end of exercise. Verse 5 ends with “judge living and dead”, but anyone who
is dead was once alive, obviously, and the judgment will be based on what they did while alive, which is why everyone needs
to be evangelized while in this life. There is no definite article with ‘dead’, either in verse 5 or 6, so Peter is referring to the
ones who were evangelized in this life—he is not saying that everyone has been or will be evangelized. Everyone will be
judged, but to ‘live according to God in spirit’ one must respond adequately to the Gospel.]

The citation of f is based on twenty-four MSS—18, 35, 141, 149, 201, 204, 328, 386, 432, 604, 664, 928, 1248, 1249, 1503,
1548, 1637, 1855, 1876, 1892, 1897, 2466, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. 2723 is a very pure representative
of f 35 in 1 Peter, with not a single variant, as was the exemplar of 35. For 2723 to have no variants after all the centuries of
transmission is surely an eloquent demonstration of the faithfulness and accuracy of that transmission. Since these MSS
come from all over the Mediterranean world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople, Trikala, Mt. Athos [four different
monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly representative of the family, giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in
the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of N-
A 26 /UBS 3 ). ECM basically reproduces NU, but wherever it disagrees it is overtly cited in the apparatus. Where all six printed
editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants with at least [10%] attestation.
ECM collated 127 continuous text manuscripts (MSS) for 1 Peter, apart from a few fragments, which number
represents about 20% of the extant (known) MSS. By a careful comparison of TuT and ECM I believe we can arrive at some
reasonably close extrapolations. Thus I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-
Byzantine variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-
Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error will hardly exceed ± 2%; where there is some division
among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error will rarely exceed ± 10%.

Both the text and the notes are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of 2 Peter is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book
gives explanation about the apparatus.

The majority variant, by putting the adjective next to the noun, seems to make a more natural construction, but I take it that
fusika is acting like a noun in apposition to zwa, and to help us see this Peter places it after the participle: render, “as
unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct made to be caught and destroyed”.)

(The nominative plural neuter perfect active participle works with hsan as a periphrastic construction whose subject includes
both ‘heavens’ [m] and ‘earth’ [f]. Peter’s syntax is almost as convoluted as Paul’s, at times. f 35 [K r ] is early and independent
of K x . Aleph gives overt 4 th century attestation, but this variant is also attested by another four independent lines of
transmission, besides f 35 , all of which probably go back at least to the 4 th century.)

representatives of f 35 in 2 Peter, with not a single variant, and so for the exemplars of 18, 141, 1503 and 1897. For 35 and
2723 to have no variants after all the centuries of transmission is surely an eloquent demonstration of the faithfulness and
accuracy of that transmission. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos,
Constantinople, Trikala, Mt. Athos [four different monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly representative of the family,
giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of N-
A 26 /UBS 3 ). ECM basically reproduces NU, but wherever it disagrees it is overtly cited in the apparatus. Where all six printed
editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants with at least [10%] attestation.
ECM collated 127 continuous text manuscripts (MSS) for 2 Peter, apart from a few fragments, which number
represents about 20% of the extant (known) MSS. By a careful comparison of TuT and ECM I believe we can arrive at some
reasonably close extrapolations. Thus I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-
Byzantine variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-
Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error will hardly exceed ± 2%; where there is some division
among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error will rarely exceed ± 10%.

Both the text and the notes are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of 1 John is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a word”
Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of this book
gives explanation about the apparatus.

attested by at least twelve independent lines of transmission, some of which must go back to the 3 rd century, besides f 35 .)

verbatim with TR were probably copied from it. The only one that is clearly early enough to have served as TR’s exemplar,
629, is far too different—it lacks the seven last words in TR, omits another five, changes five and adds two—19 out of 40

The citation of f is based on twenty-four MSS—18, 35, 141, 149, 201, 204, 328, 386, 432, 604, 664, 928, 1248, 1249, 1503,
1548, 1637, 1855, 1876, 1892, 1897, 2466, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. 204 is a very pure representative
of f 35 in 1 John, with not a single variant, and so for the exemplars of 35, 1503, 1637, 1897 and 2723. For 204 to have no
variants after all the centuries of transmission is surely an eloquent demonstration of the faithfulness and accuracy of that
transmission. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean world (Sinai, Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople,
Trikala, Mt. Athos [four different monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly representative of the family, giving us the precise
family profile—it is reflected in the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
7

Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of
N-A 26 /UBS 3 ). ECM basically reproduces NU, but wherever it disagrees it is overtly cited in the apparatus. Where all six
printed editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants with at least [10%] attestation.
ECM collated 132 continuous text manuscripts (MSS) for 1 John, including some fragments, which number represents
about 20% of the extant (known) MSS. By a careful comparison of TuT and ECM I believe we can arrive at some reasonably
close extrapolations. Thus I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-Byzantine
variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-Byzantine variants
listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error will hardly exceed ± 2%; where there is some division among the Byzantine
witnesses the margin of error will rarely exceed ± 10%.

1 Both the text and the notes are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD. I venture to affirm to the reader that all
original wording of 2 & 3 John and Jude is preserved in this edition, if not in the Text, at least in the apparatus. “Diminish not a
word” Jeremiah 26:2 (see Deut. 4:2 and Luke 4:4, “every word” [as in 99.6% of the MSS]). The last note at the end of Jude
gives explanation about the apparatus.

(I imagine that the difficulty arose from the use of the future indicative with the verb ‘to be’, when the optative or subjunctive
would be expected. We expect “may mercy . . . be with you,” not the affirmation that it will be. If “in truth and love” is
understood as modifying the pronoun, then the use of the indicative is explained. Anyone who is in truth and love will have
grace, mercy and peace. The 2 nd person is presumably correct.)

graphically described in verses 4, 8 and 10-13. In verse 14 Jude introduces a prophecy "about these men", the same ones he
has been describing, and the quotation continues to the end of verse 15. Verse 16 continues the description of their
perversity, but verse 17 draws a clear distinction between them and the believers that Jude is addressing. So, Enoch cannot
be referring to "every soul"—the NU reading is clearly wrong, introducing an aberration on the flimsiest of evidence. In fact,
Nestle 25 and UBS 2 stayed with the Majority, reading "all the ungodly". UBS 3 changes to "every soul", without comment! Is this
not a curious proceeding? The UBS editors reverse an earlier position, following just three MSS and the Sahidic version, and
do not even mention it in their apparatus.]

The citation of f is based on twenty-five MSS—18, 35, 141, 149, 201, 204, 328, 386, 432, 444, 604, 664, 928, 1248, 1249,
1503, 1548, 1637, 1855, 1876, 1892, 1897, 2466, 2587 and 2723—all of which I collated myself. 141, 204, 386, 928, 1637,
1855 and 2723 are very pure representatives of f 35 in these three books, with not a single variant, and so for the exemplars of
eight others. For all those MSS to have no variants after all the centuries of transmission is surely an eloquent demonstration
of the faithfulness and accuracy of that transmission. Since these MSS come from all over the Mediterranean world (Sinai,
Jerusalem, Patmos, Constantinople, Trikala, Mt. Athos [four different monasteries], Rome, etc.) they are certainly
representative of the family, giving us the precise family profile—it is reflected in the Text without exception.
I have included six published editions in the apparatus—RP,HF,OC,TR,CP,NU. RP = Robinson-Pierpont (2005), HF =
Hodges-Farstad, OC = the Greek Text of the Greek Orthodox Church (also used by other Orthodox Churches; I have not
collated OC, so it may have some private readings not noted in the apparatus), TR = Textus Receptus, CP = Complutensian
Polyglot, NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3 (N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of
N-A 26 /UBS 3 ). Where all six printed editions are in agreement, I arbitrarily limit inclusion in the apparatus to variants with at
least [10%] attestation.
ECM not being available for these three books, I had to revert to von Soden and the apparatus of N-A 27 , with help
from Scrivener and Tischendorf. However, I venture to predict, if complete collations ever become available, that for any non-
Byzantine variants listed with 5 to 1% support (in my apparatus) the margin of error should not exceed ± 1%; for non-
Byzantine variants listed with 10 to 6% support the margin of error should hardly exceed ± 3%; where there is some division
among the Byzantine witnesses the margin of error should rarely exceed ± 15%.

APOKALUYIS
APOKALUYIS
A New Greek Text of Revelation, with a new Critical Apparatus
Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM, PhD
I have used the Hodges-Farstad Majority Text and apparatus as my working base, or point of
departure, being convinced of the general superiority of the Byzantine text form. However, of all the
books of the NT the Apocalypse had the most troubled passage through the centuries of copying by
hand. Very early on (probably within the II century) three main independent lines of transmission
developed, and then a variety of variations within those streams. Thus there are some 150 variant sets
where no reading receives even 50% attestation, and another 250 sets where the strongest numerical
attestation falls below 60%. In those 400 places to speak of a ‘majority’ text is not convincing—we
need other criteria. I offer Original Text Theory, which is spelled out in the Appendix, and it is on that
basis that I have identified the wording of the Text.
It is only the existence of H.C. Hoskier’s thorough collation of the MSS available in his day
(even his opponents acknowledged that he did careful work) that makes possible this enterprise. The
product offered here is not complete (many poorly attested readings of TR and NU have not yet been
checked against Hoskier). In the H-F apparatus Hodges does not adequately reflect the evidence
furnished by Hoskier. It thus becomes necessary to go back to Hoskier and recheck the evidence for
each variant set. There will probably be a number of typographical errors, especially in the apparatus
(if you find any please tell me, so I can correct them). Where I have not yet rechecked the evidence I
have reproduced the statement given in H-F, but I place the M families within parentheses.
I have included five printed editions in the apparatus: Complutensian Polyglot, Robinson-
Pierpont, Hodges-Farstad, Textus Receptus, N-A 26 /UBS 3 [N-U]. Since both R-P and H-F reflect a
Majority Text perspective I have tried to include every case where I disagree with either (or both) in the
apparatus. I may have missed a few places where CP has a private reading. In my view, the first
printed edition of the Greek text of Revelation (CP, printed January 10, 1514) is still far and away the
best. I am reminded of John 3:19-20—the Light makes itself available, but people must then go to it;
the Light doesn’t go chasing them. An incredibly good text of Revelation has been available for almost
500 years, but it has been severely ignored—I am not aware of a single translation based upon it.
“And this is the condemnation . . . .”
In the first paragraph I referred to three main independent lines of transmission. Upon a close
observation of the fluctuating alignments of the nine M groups (see the Appendix)—it is clear from
Hoskier’s collations that each of the nine groups had a life of its own; the groups exist and are distinct
from each other—I conclude that M c represents one of those lines, M d,e,h represent another (h is older
than either d or e), and M a,b,f,g,i represent the third (b,f,g are all older than a and i; they left the stream
at nodes above that of a,i) (see the Stemma in the Appendix). The old uncials (P 47 ℵA,C) are mixed.
Of the three lines c [which I now call f 35 ; further I insist that f 35 should be factored out of the broad
Byzantine tradition and be presented separately, as I have done in the apparatus that follows,
because I now believe that f 35 is earlier than K x , etc., being the base from which the others departed]
has by far the best ‘batting average’ or credibility quotient; this evaluation is clearly reflected in my
textual choices.
The Greek font used is that of the Online Bible (Bwgrkl). I believe it is available free from
www.bibleworks.com/fonts.html.

Both the Text and the apparatus are the responsibility of Wilbur N. Pickering, ThM PhD.
Key: CP = Complutensian Polyglot; RP = Robinson-Pierpont; HF = Hodges-Farstad; TR = Textus Receptus; NU = N-A 26 /UBS 3
(N-A 27 /UBS 4 offer changes in the critical apparatus, not in the text; the text is still that of N-A 26 /UBS 3 ). For the composition of
the M families see the Appendix. Where M groups are in ( ), H-F is cited without having been checked; except where I
occasionally use parentheses to indicate variants within a larger variant (as in the second example below). Many minor
variants have not been included in the apparatus, which is why the fractions for a family do not always add up to 100%.
Where a fraction is ¼ or less I show the family without fraction for the other variant. I have identified the wording of the Text on
the basis of what I call Original Text Theory, which is spelled out in the Appendix. I use rell to indicate that the reading is
supported by all other witnesses, and printed editions (of the five included in the apparatus), compared to the other reading.
As an arbitrary decision I have included only MSS from the 5 th century and earlier in the apparatus; the same holds for the
sporadic citation of the early versions. Should I ever mention a member of f 35 I will use its Gregory number.

M a,b,e1/6,f,h,i ℵA,C,RP,HF,TR,NU (The long form has attestation from all three main lines of transmission—f 35 is solid, as are
d-e and g; h goes with the bulk of the third group for the short form.) (eiden would be ‘He saw’, referring to Christ—compare
22:20—He is passing on the ‘revelation’; the whole book is what Jesus Christ is testifying, as an eye witness; I assume that
early copyists missed the point, applying eiden to John, but then they couldn’t make sense of the full text and so proceeded to
omit the awkward parts.) [Since modern critics often reason like early copyists, I suspect that this variant at the outset of the
book pre-disposed them against f 35 (= M c / K r ).]

wn ) ) ) kai apo twn epta ) ) ) kai apo ihsou ) ) ) presumably refers to the Trinity, so ‘the seven-fold Spirit’ refers
to the Holy Spirit—if the Godhead can be three in one, why may not the Holy Spirit be seven in one? The grammatical
anomaly of a plural subject with a singular verb probably gave rise to the other variants]

so the neuter form is correct, in spite of the slim attestation. It seems clear from verse 9 that it is only the four living beings
who are repeating ‘holy’, but if copyists thought the elders were in chorus with the living beings, they would naturally change
the gender to masculine. In spite of the split in f 35 , most of the better MSS attest the first variant.]

would be changed to ‘three’ than vice versa; in fact, try reading ‘holy’ nine times in a row out loud—it starts to get

the word was ‘lost’ in the transition from one column to the next—I don’t have access to a facsimile of the codex to check it,
but assuming that Hoskier is correct about the location then the omission was probably inadvertent, one of the many slips that
disfigure the MS.)]

f 35pt M a,bpt,d,e,f,g1/3,hpt,ipt ; putting it all together, the single vowel appears certain; the evidence for the double ‘beta’ is stronger, as
also for the single ‘delta’; I take it that d and f preserve the original spelling] [The Hebrew has a double d but a single b, the
reading of TR and NU, but the evidence for bb is quite strong—probably the archetypical spelling in all three main lines of
transmission.]

thunders uttered, why would John be told he would write it later? So many copyists altered the text, reinforcing the prohibition.
However, I take it that the voice was giving two unrelated instructions: not to record the thunders; and to put his notebook
aside until later—he is going to be busy interacting with the angel and eating a book, and the voice doesn’t want him to be
distracted by trying to write at the same time.]

[The context calls for the aorist tense, but this verb usually appears in the 2nd aorist, so the unfamiliar 1st aorist was changed
to the present, a change of just one letter. The aorist receives some attestation from all nine groups, which means that it was
not invented in the middle ages—if the present were original, why would copyists from all traditions change it to an unfamiliar
form? Hoskier lists nine variants.]

call for naou; so much so that if ouranou were original some might have omitted while others made the obvious change—if
naou were original, why would anyone omit or change? On the other hand, there are at least three heavens, 2 Cor. 12:2, and
they may have come out of the third, into the second. This is the only mention of the tabernacle of the testimony in Revelation,
so the throne of God wasn’t there and none of the action related by John up to this point took place there—there have been
several references to the temple, with angels coming out of it, but I doubt that temple and tabernacle are to be equated.]

Instead of ercou twice, TR has elqe twice. Only 3 MSS—57, 141, 171 (Gregory 296, 2049, 2075)—have elqe, all three
being XVI century and under suspicion of having copied Erasmus’ printed edition. No one knows where Erasmus got elqe, but
certainly it wasn’t from John.

[I find it to be curious that in spite of the serious warning contained in verses 18 and 19, a warning issued by the glorified

one gives will depend on his presuppositions.]

1 I have enclosed in [ ] MSS indicated by Hoskier as copies of other extant MSS. Thus, in M d cursive 73 is a copy of 79; in M e
cursive 63 is a copy of 62, and both 88 and 101 are copies of 46; in M a -M b cursive 217 is a copy of 172; in M i cursive 176 is a
copy of 206. If we ignore these known duplicates, M d comes out with 16 MSS, M e with 28, M a -M b with 14, and M i with 10. The
sub-groups within { } are related to the main group, but not totally alligned.

Obs.: Hoskier does not have P 43,47,85,98,115 ,0207,0308, of course. Not all of the above will be extant at
any given point. I follow H-F in using M a-e . M f-h are my invention. M f was included by Hodges in his M a ;
besides factoring it out (for obvious reasons) I have further subdivided M a . (I understand Hoskier to
say that M a -M b is a mixture of a and b, that M a -M c is a mixture of a and c, etc. If these subgroups are
mixtures, then they are secondary developments, which tarnishes their credibility.) Hodges ignored
M g,h and the “independents”.

Stemma—Αποκαλυψις
Αποκαλυψις

O Original
150 ♦ common property • f 35 ♦ common property
of d,e,h of a,b,f,g,i
200 ♦ d,e • h • g ♦ a,f,i • b
250 • d • e • f ♦ a,i
• a • i
Comment: As illustrated by this stemma, I posit three main lines of transmission. It follows that if h
agrees with f 35 against d,e (and a,b,f,g,i) then in 150 we could have two lines against one. Similarly, if
g or b agrees with f 35 against the rest, then in 150 we could have two lines against one. In such an
43

event there would have to be comparison going on—in the first case either h assimilated to f 35 (if the
rest have the true reading) or d,e assimilated to a,b,f,g,i (or f 35 did the assimilating).
ORIGINAL TEXT THEORY
I am sure that if Burgon were alive today he would agree that the discoveries and research of
the last hundred years make possible, even necessary, some refinements on his theory. I proceed to
outline what I consider to be the correct approach to N.T. textual criticism. I venture to call it Original
Text Theory. 1
1) First, OTT is concerned to identify the precise original wording of the N.T. writings.
2) Second, the criteria must be biblical, objective and reasonable.
3) Third, a 90% attestation will be considered unassailable, and 80% virtually so.
4) Fourth, Burgon's "notes of truth" will come into play, especially where the attestation falls below
80%.
5) Fifth, where collations exist, making possible an empiric grouping of the MSS on the basis of shared
mosaics of readings, this must be done. Such groups must be evaluated on the basis of their
performance and be assigned a credibility quotient. A putative history of the transmission of
the Text needs to be developed on the basis of the interrelationships of such groups.
Demonstrated groupings and relationships supersede the counting of MSS. 2,3
6) Sixth, it presupposes that the Creator exists and that He has spoken to our race. It accepts the
implied divine purpose to preserve His revelation for the use of subsequent generations,
including ours. It understands that both God and Satan have an ongoing active interest in the
fate of the N.T. Text—to approach N.T. textual criticism without taking due account of that
interest is to act irresponsibly.
7) Seventh, it insists that presuppositions and motives must always be addressed and evaluated.

1 I have thought of resurrecting the term "traditional", but since Burgon and Miller are not here to protest, I hesitate;
besides, that term is no longer descriptive. Terms like "antiochian" or "byzantine" carry an extraneous burden of antipathy, or
have been preempted. So here's to Original Text Theory. Since I really do believe that God has preserved the original wording
to our day, and that we can know what it is on the basis of a defensible procedure, I do not fear the charge of arrogance, or
presumption, or whatever because I use the term "original". All textual criticism worthy the name is in search of original wording.
2 Please note that I am not referring to any attempt at reconstructing a genealogy of MSS—I agree with those scholars
who have declared such an enterprise to be virtually impossible (there are altogether too many missing links). I am indeed
referring to the reconstruction of a genealogy of readings, and thus of the history of the transmission of the Text. The work of
Hoskier and Wisse shows us that it is possible to group the MSS empirically, on the basis of a shared mosaic or profile of
readings. (The collations published in the Text und Textwert series edited by K. Aland represent an important contribution with
reference to the variant sets treated.) Once this is done we are dealing with independent groups, not individual MSS. Thus,
Wisse's study in Luke reduces 1,386 MSS to 37 groups (plus 89 "mavericks"). Please note that I am here concerned with the
principle involved. Of course different scholars may argue for different alignments, assign individual MSS to different groups,
etc., but none of this alters the principle that the MSS can be grouped, empirically. These groups must be evaluated for
independence and credibility. The independent, credible witnesses must then be heard and their testimony analyzed.
3 It will be observed that in Revelation I deal only with established groups in the apparatus; I do not count manuscripts,
and the only ones I mention are the early uncials. Based on an analysis of the evidence presented in the Text und Textwert
series (it covers the whole NT except John and Revelation) and the emerging Editio Critica Maior series (so far James, 1 and 2
Peter, and 1 John are available) I become increasingly convinced that the text-type I call f 35 (Soden’s K r , and in Revelation
Hoskier’s ‘Complutensian’) is both ancient and independent of all other lines of transmission. In such an event the only logical
explanation is that it harks back to the Autographs.
