GC: Both attestations contain cores of A-related witnesses. They are more numerous for a, the majority reading, while 03, 04, and 892 are accompanied by many incoherencies.

TP: Variant a agrees with Luke 18:25 while variant b agrees with Matt 19:24. Variant b fits better with the preceding διά, and the incoherencies in the b attestation confirm that there was a tendency towards the reading that is smoother in context and in agreement with the Matthean parallel.
