Matthew 15:38

tc ‡ Although most witnesses (B C L W f13 33 𝔐 f sys,p,h mae) read “women and children” instead of “children and women,” it is likely that the majority’s reading is a harmonization to Matt 14:21. “Children and women” is found in early and geographically widespread witnesses (e.g., א D [Θ f1] 579 lat syc sa bo), and has more compelling internal arguments on its side, suggesting that this is the original reading. NA27, however, agrees with the majority of witnesses.

tn Grk “And those eating were four thousand men, apart from children and women.”
