Conduct Toward Those Outside the Church

Footnotes
- 1 Most later witnesses (D2 0278 𝔐 lat sy) have καί (kai, “and”) after ἀρχαῖς (archais, “rulers”), though the earliest and best witnesses (א A C D* F G Ψ 33 104 1739 1881) lack the conjunction. Although the καί is most likely not authentic, it has been added in translation due to the requirements of English style. For more discussion, see .
- 2 Or “discredit,” “damage the reputation of.”
