Footnotes

  1. 7 “And” is not in the Greek text. It is supplied for smoothness in English.
  2. 8 Most witnesses, including some early and important ones (א P 33 𝔐 sy), have κυρίου (kuriou, “Lord”) before Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ (Iēsou Christou, “Jesus Christ”), but this is a typical scribal addition, motivated by pietistic and liturgical concerns. Further, early and excellent (A B Ψ 048 0232 81 323 1739 ) lack κυρίου. Thus, both internally and externally, the shorter reading is strongly preferred.
