Split a/b -- R2

The majority reading, b, may avoid the clumsy repetition of the pronoun. On the other hand, incoherencies in the a attestation suggest that sometimes an inclination towards abundance prevailed.[1]

 

[1]      Cf. BDR/BDF 278 on the tendency toward pleonastic usage of the pronoun in the NT. Barrett suggests that αὐτόν “may have been added in order to prevent even a moment’s doubt whether ἤγειρε was to be taken as transitive or intransitive” (183).
