Acts 10:32 qa,lassan {B}

The concluding clause, o]j parageno,menoj lalh,sei soi (translated in the AV “Who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee”), appears to be an innocuous expansion in the Western text (D E itd, e, gig, 63, 67 syrmsK) that was later incorporated into the Byzantine text (H L P many minuscules). Although it can be argued that the clause was pruned from the Alexandrian text as an unnecessary and, indeed, an awkward appendage (strictly o[j refers to Si,mwn burseu,j), a majority of the Committee regarded it as a circumstantial expansion, to be compared with the partial parallel in Acts 11:14.
