Ephesians 5:2

Ephesians 5:2 h`ma/j {B}

The external evidence supporting the two readings is rather evenly balanced (h`ma/j î<sup>46</sup> a<sup>c</sup> D G K Y 33 614 1739 it<sup>pt</sup> vg syr<sup>p, h</sup> goth arm al; u`ma/j a* A B P 81 it^pt cop^{sa, bo} eth al), with a slight preponderance of weight favoring h`ma/j. Since the following set of variant readings seems to require the adoption of the reading h`mw/n, a majority of the Committee felt that uniformity of the personal pronoun in two successive clauses joined by kai, was indispensable, and therefore preferred h`ma/j.
