John 13:37

John 13:37 Ku,rie {A}

Ku,rie, which is absent from a* 33 565 vg syr^s cop^{sa^ms, bo^mss}, may be regarded as an accretion in the other witnesses by assimilation to ver. John 13:36. On the other hand, however, in view of early and widespread manuscript support for the word, a majority of the Committee voted to retain it, explaining its omission as either accidental (ku,rie was often contracted to k®e®) or deliberate (because it seemed redundant so soon after Ku,rie in ver. John 13:36).
