ver. 2 John 1:9 didach|/ (2) {A}

After the second didach|/ the Textus Receptus, following K L P most minuscules copbo eth, adds tou/ Cristou/. This reading is obviously secondary, the result of scribal assimilation to the first part of the sentence. Likewise didach|/ auvtou/, read by certain versional and patristic witnesses (syrph, h with * Lucifer), originated from a similar desire to relate the two clauses more closely. The shorter reading is strongly supported by a A B Y 33 81 1739 vg copsa al.
