Gen 6 and its NT texts: form only

Says 1 Pet 3:20 speaks of ἡμέραις Νῶε κατασκευαζομένης κιβωτοῦ, where ὀλίγοι, τοῦτʼ ἔστιν ὀκτὼ ψυχαί, διεσώθησαν διʼ ὕδατος; the SBLGNT apparatus records the Byzantine Textform’s ὀλίγαι. 1 Pet 3:19 and Heb 11:7 (κατεσκεύασεν κιβωτόν) have no unit.

Says 2 Pet 2:4 has ἀγγέλων ἁμαρτησάντων … σειραῖς ζόφου; the apparatus gives σειραῖς for the Byzantine Textform and NA28 against σιροῖς in Westcott and Hort and Tregelles. 2:5 and Jude 6 have no unit.

Says Matt 22:30 has ὡς ἄγγελοι θεοῦ ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ; the apparatus records ἐκγαμίζονται, τοῦ θεοῦ, and no τῷ for the Byzantine Textform, and no θεοῦ in Westcott and Hort, Tregelles, and NA28. Matt 24:37–39 and Luke 17:26–27 speak of ἡμέραις Νῶε, κιβωτόν, and ὁ κατακλυσμός; their units are wording and spelling (for example ἐξεγαμίζοντο and ἅπαντας in the Byzantine Textform at Luke 17:27).

Says κιβωτός and κατακλυσμός in these texts agree in form with Swete 6:14 and 6:17.

Uncertain Whether 1 Pet 3:19–20, 2 Pet 2:4, Jude 6, or Matt 22:30 refer to Gen 6:1–4 is not settled, and no lean is taken. Readers who take “the sons of God” as angels cite 1 Pet 3:19–20, 2 Pet 2:4, and Jude 6, where angels sin or leave τὸ ἴδιον οἰκητήριον; the main alternative, reading them as Seth’s line, answers that these texts do not name Gen 6 and cites Matt 22:30, where those raised do not marry but are ὡς ἄγγελοι. Form agreement is not a claim about which text a writer used.
