A Textual Commentary On The Greek NT

Revelation 18:22

Revelation 18:22 kai. pa/j tecni,thj pa,shj te,cnhj {B}

The absence of pa,shj te,cnhj in a A cop^bo is probably accidental; the words are adequately attested by C P 046 051 most minuscules it^gig vg syr^h cop^sa al, and are in harmony with the author’s style, but would scarcely have been inserted by copyists. The addition of kai, before pa,shj (2053 2138 Ps-Ambrose) is probably a mechanical blunder in transcription, suggested by the repeated use of kai, in the first half of the verse. Because of homoeoteleuton several witnesses accidentally omit one or another of the clauses that end in evn soi. e;ti.
