1 Corinthians 3:3

1 Corinthians 3:3 e;rij {B}

Although the reading e;rij kai. dicostasi,ai has early and diversified attestation (î⁴⁶ D (G) 33 614 Byz it^{d, g, 61} syr^{p, h} Marcion al), the absence of kai. dicostasi,ai from such witnesses as î^11vid a B C P Y 81 1739 al led the Committee to suspect the intrusion of a Western gloss, derived perhaps from the list of vices in Galatians 5:20. There being no sufficient reason to account for the omission, if the words were present originally, the shorter reading is to be preferred.
