2 Peter 3:18 @avmh,n)# {C}

On the one hand, the external testimony supporting the presence of avmh,n at the close of the doxology is almost overwhelming in scope and weight, including î72 a A C 33 81 614 vg syrph, h copsa, bo arm eth. On the other hand, if the word were present originally, it is difficult to account for its absence in such notable Eastern and Western witnesses as B 1739* Augustine Bede, as well as several other minuscules (82 440 522 1175 1241 1881). In order to reflect this conflict between external and internal considerations, the Committee thought it best to include avmh,n but to enclose it within square brackets, suggesting a considerable measure of doubt as to its right to stand in the text.
