Jump To ECM Entry Online Commentary Introduction
Split a/b
GC: There is a coherent majority attestation with a broad A-related basis for a. The b attestation is small but combines four early A-related witnesses with 05, Old Latin witnesses, the Vulgate, and the Ethiopic.
TP: The intensive καί (even) is suitable here. The sentence without it appears terse because the reader has to understand that the forgiveness of sins refers also to sins for which the law of Moses has a remedy. So b is the harder reading, while, on the other hand, it is obviously in danger of being omitted after preceding -ται.
