1 Peter 1:22

1 Peter 1:22 avlhqei,aj {A}

After avlhqei,aj the Textus Receptus, following the later uncials (K P 049 056 0142) and most minuscules, adds the phrase dia. pneu,matoj. These words, whose absence from such early and good witnesses as î⁷² a A B C Y 33 1739 al cannot easily be explained if they were present originally, appear to be a theological expansion introduced by a copyist. In the West several Old Latin manuscripts and the Vulgate replaced avlhqei,aj with caritatis (“charity”), and one witness (Speculum) expanded with fidei per spiritum (“faith through the Spirit”).
