1 Peter 3:22 qeou/

As is suggested by the use of the present participle deglutiens in the sense of the past tense, it is probable that the addition is a translation of a Greek gloss, which, according to Harnack’s reconstruction, may have read katapiw.n $to.n% qa,naton( i[na zwh/j aivwni,ou klhrono,moi genhqw/men (A. von Harnack, Beiträge zur Einleitung in das Neue Testament, VII [Leipzig, 1916], p. 83).
