Matthew 9:5

ἔγειρε for ἔγειραι. An example of itacism, errors arising from similarity of sound. ‘In all the passages in which ἔγειρε, occurs, there is found, as a different reading, ἔγειραι.’ (Meyer.)

5. εὐκοπώτερον. A post-classical word, used only in the Synoptic Gospels, and always in the comparative degree.
