Colossians 4:15

Colossians 4:15 Nu,mfan kai. th.n katV oi=kon auvth/j {C}

Numfan can be accented Nu,mfan, from the feminine nominative Nu,mfa (“Nympha”), or Numfa/n, from the masculine nominative Numfa/j (“Nymphas”). The uncertainty of the gender of the name led to variation in the following possessive pronoun between auvth/j and auvtou/. On the basis chiefly of the weight of B 6 424^c 1739 1877 1881 syr^{h, palms} cop^sa Origen, the Committee preferred Nu,mfan … auvth/j. The reading with auvtw/n arose when copyists included avdelfou,j in the reference.
