The Causes of the Corruption of the Traditional Text of the Holy Gospels

CHAPTER XIV
25/236

Quis enim sanus tam insignia deleverit[563] ?' Griesbach retained it as probably genuine .-- The second clause ([Greek: kai eipen, Ouk oidate hoiou pneumatos este hymeis]) he obelized as probably not genuine:--the third ([Greek: ho gar huios tou anthropou ouk elthe psychas anthropon apolesai, alla sosai]) he rejected entirely.

Lachmann also retains the first clause, but rejects the other two.

Alford, not without misgiving, does the same.

Westcott and Hort, without any misgiving about the third clause, are 'morally certain' that the first and second clauses are a Western interpolation.

Tischendorf and Tregelles are thorough.
