Decision

✓ Approved

Printed: Χριστόν
Confidence: high (team scale)
Significance: translation
Byz / TR: Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν — open RP2018

Editorial decision: print Χριστόν without Ἰησοῦν, with SBLGNT, WH, Treg, and NA28. Confidence high. Says Christ is named as servant of the circumcision on every reading. RP and TR both add the name Jesus but do not use the same order. The connective and the tense are separate box lines.

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. SBLGNT, WH, Treg, and NA28 print Χριστόν without Ἰησοῦν. RP adds Ἰησοῦν after Χριστόν. TR reads Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν. RP is not a proxy for TR in this unit.

Manuscripts (Tischendorf 8, vol. 2 (1872), p. 443, leaf n450 (novumtestamentum02tisc)): the octava prints λέγω γὰρ Χριστὸν διάκονον γεγενῆσθαι. Χριστόν (with Griesbach in the margin) with ℵ A B C, cop arm aeth, Origen, Didymus, Epiphanius, Chrysostom in the commentary (one citation has τὸν χριστόν), Cyril of Alexandria, Damascene, and Facundus. L P and far more others, some catenae, guelph, vg, go, Athanasius, Chrysostom in the text, Theodoret, Theophylact, Oecumenius, and Ambrosiaster read Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν. ς reads Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν with D E F G, some minuscules (counted, not listed), d e f g, harl, and both Syriac versions. Latin and Syriac support the name order only as version evidence, and are assigned where Tischendorf places them with a Greek form. Chrysostom is cited on two sides and is kept with the commentary for Χριστόν and with the text for Χριστὸν Ἰησοῦν.

Minor variants (box lines; same page): 15:8 γάρ / δέ: γάρ (with Griesbach in the margin) with ℵ B C D E F G P and others, d e f g, vg, cop, go, and several fathers, with SBLGNT, WH, Treg, and NA28; ς reads δέ with L and most others, both Syriac versions, arm, Chrysostom, Theodoret, Theophylact, and Oecumenius, and both RP and TR have δέ. 15:8 γεγενῆσθαι / γένεσθαι: the perfect γεγενῆσθαι with ℵ A C² Dc E L P and apparently all others, Didymus, Epiphanius, Chrysostom, Cyril, Theodoret, and Damascene, with SBLGNT, WH, NA28, RP, and TR; Lachmann reads γένεσθαι with B C* D* F G, arm, and Athanasius, with Tregelles.
