NOTES: "I thank God always for ^plyou"
EVIDENCE: Aleph(א)* B
TRANSLATIONS: ASVn RSV NRSVn NASVn NIV84 NEB REB

COMMENTS: Although it is possible that the word "my" may have been borrowed by copyists from passages such as Romans 1:8 or Philippians 1:3, the fact that it is included in early manuscripts of several kinds of ancient text indicates that it is original.

COMMENTS: Some copyists and translators added the word "not" to make the question of the same form as the following one.

EVIDENCE: Aleph(א)* B 1739 most cop(north) some cop(south)
TRANSLATIONS: ASVn RSV NRSVn NASV95n NASV2020 NIV84 CSBn

COMMENTS: The difference in the two readings is the inclusion or omission of "God"; the same word can be translated "I thank" or "I give thanks." The word "God" is enclosed in brackets in the UBS text. The evidence listed in braces reads "my God"; apparently the word "my" was borrowed by copyists from verse 4. Although it is possible that the word "God" was added by copyists after the pattern found in such passages as 1 Corinthians 1:4 and 14:18, it is also possible that the word was accidently omitted through a mistake of the eye, since the word for "I thank" ends in the same letter as "God" in Greek.

1 Corinthians 1:23:

NOTES: "a snare to Jews and foolishness to Greeks"
EVIDENCE: C³ D² 630 1739 1881 Maj
TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV NEB CSBn

COMMENTS: Later copyists apparently borrowed the word "Greeks" from verses 22 and 24 to make Paul's usage consistent. The text reading is supported by early manuscripts of multiple text types.

1 Corinthians 1:28:

TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV ASV RSV? ESV? NIV TEV

COMMENTS: Apparently some copyists failed to note that "things that are not" is in apposition to "the scorned things" and added the word "and" from the earlier part of the verse to make it another item in the list. The Greek word translated "and" can also be translated "even" to show apposition.

1 Corinthians 2:1:

NOTES: "I proclaimed to ^plyou the testimony of God."

TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV ASV RSV NRSV1989n NRSV2021 ESV NASV NIV NEB REB TEVn CSBn

COMMENTS: There are only three letters difference between the two words in Greek, which are spelling similarly. If "mystery" is original, copyists borrowed "testimony" from verse 6 of chapter 1. If "testimony" is original, copyists borrowed "mystery" from verse 7 of chapter 2. The UBS Textual Committee felt that the reading "mystery" fits better with what Paul is trying to say.

1 Corinthians 2:4:

NOTES: "not in persuasion of wisdom"
EVIDENCE: (p⁴⁶ G) (two lat)
TRANSLATIONS: NRSVn

COMMENTS: The word "words" is in brackets in the UBS text, and so is the sigma that changes "persuasion" to "persuasive." The evidence in braces omits the sigma. The addition of "human" or "man's" (some north Coptic) is the kind of clarification that copyists often made, probably influenced by the word "men's" modifying "wisdom" in verse 5.

COMMENTS: Although the words "and dissension" are found in early manuscripts, they are missing from even more early manuscripts and there is no good reason for their omission. They were perhaps added by copyists who had Galatians 5:20 in mind.

1 Corinthians 3:17:

COMMENTS: There was a tendency for copyists to expand the name of Jesus. Although it is possible that copyists shortened the phrase to the familiar "day of the Lord," it is also possible that they lengthened it to "day of the Lord Jesus" influenced by verse 4, where "Lord Jesus" is found twice.

COMMENTS: The evidence listed in braces adds the word "our" before "Lord." Although copyists often added to the name of Jesus, here "Jesus" and "Christ" end in the same two letters and the omission may be due to a mistake of the eye. The text reading is supported by early manuscripts of both the Alexandrian and Western text types.

COMMENTS: Copyists were often known to add "fasting" to "prayer." The text reading is supported by the majority of early manuscripts of multiple text types.

1 Corinthians 7:7:

TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV ASVn NASVn

COMMENTS: The RSV, NRSV, ESV, NIV, NEB, REB and CSB omit the conjunction in translation. The word translated "And" or "Yet" is an adversative conjunction. Apparently copyists who did not notice the slight opposition between this sentence and the previous one replaced this conjunction with "For."

1 Corinthians 7:13:

TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV ASV NASV95 NEB

COMMENTS: The Greek words for "if any" and "whoever" are pronounced alike so this so this is probably a mistake of the ear. The UBS committee decided that the evidence for the text reading was slightly better, having early manuscripts from both the Alexandrian and Western text types.

1 Corinthians 7:14:

NOTES: "the unbelieving wife has been sanctified by [her] husband"

COMMENTS: The evidence listed in braces reads "believing brother." The change from "brother" to "husband" was apparent made by copyists to make it parallel with "wife" in the previous clause. The text reading is supported by early manuscripts of multiple text types.

1 Corinthians 7:15:

NOTES: "But God has called us in peace."

TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV ASV RSV NRSV1989n NRSV2021 ESVn NASV NIV CSBn

COMMENTS: In later Greek both "^plyou" and "us" were pronounced alike. Thus the variation may be due to a mistake of the ear. Copyists would be more likely to write down the more general word "us," so it is possible that "^plyou" is original. The NEB and REB omit both words.

1 Corinthians 7:34:

NOTES: "please [his] wife. •There is also a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried [woman] is concerned"
EVIDENCE: D^c F G K L Psi 614 630 1241 Byz Lect four lat syr(p,h)
TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV ASVn NASV73n NEBn REBn

OTHER: "please [his] wife, •and the woman is divided. And the unmarried virgin is concerned"
EVIDENCE: D*

COMMENTS: There are nine variations of this passage within the two major groups, mostly involving the inclusion or omission of two uses of "and" or "also," the location or omission of the word "unmarried," and the position of punctuation. The same Greek word can be translated "are divided" or "there is a difference between." The evidence listed in braces is a combination reading that has "the unmarried woman and the unmarried virgin" (the adjective "unmarried" follows "virgin" in the Greek). The original reading of manuscript D actually supports the reading in the notes. The word order is the same; it is misplaced punctuation that makes for the strange reading. Although it is possible that copyists who misread the reading in the notes as "and is divided. And the wife and the unmarried virgin are concerned" moved the word "unmarried" from following "virgin" to following "wife" or "woman" (thus producing the text reading), the fact that the text reading is found in early manuscripts of both the Alexandrian and Western kinds of ancient text makes this unlikely. It is more likely that copyists who had trouble seeing why he wrote both "unmarried woman" and "virgin" changed the text reading by moving "unmarried" to follow "virgin" and making a third sentence.

1 Corinthians 7:39:

NOTES: "A wife has been bound by law [to her husband] as long a time as her husband lives"

OTHER: "A wife has been bound by marriage [to her husband] as long a time as her husband lives"

COMMENTS: The words "by law" seem to have been taken by copyists from the similar passage in Romans 7:2. The text reading is supported by the majority of early manuscripts of multiple text types.

1 Corinthians 8:3:

NOTES: "But if anyone loves, he is known."
EVIDENCE: p⁴⁶
TRANSLATIONS: NEB ("he is acknowledged by God.")

COMMENTS: The omission of "God" here by manuscript p⁴⁶ is due to a generalizing of the text by the copyist of that manuscript. It also omits "something" in verse 2, and "by him" at the end of verse 3.

1 Corinthians 8:7:

NOTES: "because of [their] conscience regarding an idol"
EVIDENCE: Aleph(א)^c D G 104 614 1241 2495 Byz Lect lat vg syr(p,h)
TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV NEBn

COMMENTS: The words "custom" and "conscience" in Greek are spelled similarly. Apparently the word "conscience" was borrowed by copyists from the last part of the verse.

1 Corinthians 8:12:

NOTES: "wound their conscience, ^plyou sin"
EVIDENCE: p⁴⁶
TRANSLATIONS: NEB REBn

COMMENTS: The word for "when it was weak" was probably deliberately omitted to keep someone from thinking that it is all right to wound a strong conscience. This is a generalizing tendency, which manuscript p⁴⁶ also shows in 1 Corinthians 8:3.

1 Corinthians 9:20:

NOTES: "[I became] as [one] under [the] law, so that"
EVIDENCE: D^c K Psi 81 614 1241 1881 Byz Lect syr(p)
TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV CSBn

COMMENTS: The phrase "not being under law myself" was probably accidently omitted by a mistake of the eye when copyists' eyes jumped from "under law" to "under law" (which ends the phrase in Greek).

1 Corinthians 10:2:

NOTES: "all had [themselves] baptized into Moses"
EVIDENCE: p^46c B K P 614 1241 1739 1881 Byz Lect syr(p,h)
TRANSLATIONS: NASV73n NEB REB (all read "received baptism")

COMMENTS: The text reading is in the passive voice, which corresponds to the Christian practice. The reading in the notes is in the middle voice, which corresponds to the Jewish practice of baptizing oneself (although in Acts 22:16 the middle voice is used of Christian baptism). The middle voice here obviously refers to the fact that the Israelites themselves walked down into the sea bed. The question is whether Paul or copyists made this fine distinction. Although it is quite possible that many copyists changed the middle to the passive voice to reflect Christian baptism, a majority of the UBS Textual Committee preferred the passive voice because elsewhere Paul uses it of Christian baptism and it is found in early manuscripts of both Alexandrian and Western types of ancient text.

1 Corinthians 10:9:

TRANSLATIONS: ASV RSV NRSVn ESVn NASV NIV NEB REB TEV

OTHER: "Nor should we be putting God to the test"
EVIDENCE: A 81

COMMENTS: Although it is possible that "Christ" was borrowed from verse 4, it is more likely that copyists who saw a difficulty in explaining how the Israelites in the wilderness could have put Christ to the test changed it to the more general words "Lord" or "God."

1 Corinthians 10:20:

TRANSLATIONS: KJV NKJV ASV NRSV2021n NASV95 CSBn

COMMENTS: Many of the translations that do not have Gentiles substitute the word pagans to make the meaning clear. Similarly, although there is strong evidence for the word "Gentiles," it is missing from early manuscripts of both the Alexandrian and Western text types. Also, the second instance of the word "sacrifice" is in brackets in the UBS text since it is missing from a number of later manuscripts marked above in braces.

COMMENTS: There are only two letters' difference between the two readings. The evidence in braces uses the rare future subjunctive which is only one letter different from the text reading. On the one hand it is possible that copyists who could not understand how an act of self-sacrifice such as giving up one's body to be burned could be rejected by God, supplied one by changing "burned" to "boast." On the other hand, it is also possible that when death by burning became a common form of persecution, the change of one or two letters to read "be burned" was easy for copyists to make.

COMMENTS: The evidence and translations in braces read "commands" to agree with the Greek word for "what" which in plural. Although the word "command" appears both before and after the verb in the manuscripts, which might indicate that it was added, the Western manuscripts that omit it are very few and contain errors in the surrounding verses.

COMMENTS: The original reading of manuscript D is due to a mistake of the ear. The word for "^plyou ignore" is pronounced like "he is ignored" although spelled slightly different. The imperative "he must ignore" may have been suggested to copyists by Revelation 22:11. The text reading is supported by early manuscripts from the Alexandrian, Western, and Palestinian forms of ancient text.

COMMENTS: The words "^plyour" and "our" were pronounced alike in later Greek, so the variation is probably due to a mistake of the ear. It is possible also that "^plyour" was taken by copyists from verse 17 or that "our" was taken from "our preaching." All things considered, the context seems to require "^plyour faith."

COMMENTS: The passage is a teaching passage, not an exhortation. For this reason the UBS Textual Committee preferred the text reading despite the poorer manuscript evidence that supports it. The difference is between a short o (omicron in the text reading) and a long o (omega in the notes).

COMMENTS: The omission of the first phrase seems to have happened accidently when copyists' eyes jumped from the beginning of the first phrase to the beginning of the second phrase. The reversal of order of the phrases probably happened when copyists accidently omitted the first phrase and then noticed it and added it in the wrong order. The omission of both phrases probably happened when copyists' eyes jumped from "immortality" at the end of verse 53 to "immortality" at the end of the second phrase.
