Printed: ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἔζησεν
Confidence: high (team scale)
Significance: meaning
Byz / TR: ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔζησεν — open RP2018

Editorial decision: print ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἔζησεν with SBLGNT, WH, Treg, and NA28. Confidence high: the shorter form has early Greek and versional support; the longer forms look like expansions with resurrection language. Says On every reading, Christ died and lives, that he might be Lord of the dead and the living. RP and TR are not treated as one form here.

Evidence

7 sources

Editions: SBLGNT; RP2018 (Byz); Scrivener 1894 (TR). WH, Treg, and NA28 alignment follows the SBLGNT apparatus; NA28 is cited by reference only. Sigla: corrector notation follows Tischendorf, as explained in src.tischendorf-8.

Three edition readings are kept apart. The SBLGNT apparatus simplifies the unit as ἀπέθανεν / + καὶ ἀνέστη and does not record ἀνέζησεν against ἔζησεν. RP reads ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔζησεν; TR (Scrivener 1894) reads ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἀνέζησεν, and also has καί after Χριστός (a box line below).

Manuscripts (Tischendorf 8, vol. 2 (1872), p. 439, leaf n446 (novumtestamentum02tisc)): the octava prints καὶ ἔζησεν, continuing a lemma Χριστὸς ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἔζησεν. ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἔζησεν with ℵ* A B C, cop arm aeth, Origen Lat., Cyril of Jerusalem, Chrysostom in one place, Cyril of Alexandria in several places, Damascene, and Anastasius. ς (= Griesbach, Scholz) reads ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἀνέζησεν with some minuscules, the Syriac (Schaaf) (mortuus est et revixit et resurrexit), and Theodoret. ℵc Db L P and far more others, the Peshitta, Ephraem, Chrysostom in one place, Theophylact, and Oecumenius read ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἀνέστη καὶ ἔζησεν. F G, f g vg, and some fathers are cited for ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἀνέστη (and one note of ἀνέζησεν); D* and Dc, E, d*, e, Irenaeus Lat., and Gaudentius have ἔζησεν καὶ ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἀνέστη. Those mixed forms are not assigned to the three edition readings. Latin support is semantic evidence for “rose” or “lived again,” not identification of the exact Greek verbs.

Minor variants (box line; same page): 14:9 Χριστὸς / Χριστὸς καί: without καί, ℵ* A B C* D* (and Dc) E F G P and others, f g vg, cop arm aeth, and several fathers, with SBLGNT, WH, Treg, NA28; ς adds καί with ℵc C³ Db L and far more others, some Latin, both Syriac versions, and RP and TR.
