Acts 15:34 omit verse {A}

The later Greek text, followed by the Textus Receptus, reads, “But it seemed good to Silas to remain there” (several manuscripts, including C, read auvtou,j for auvtou/, i.e. “But it seemed good to Silas that they should remain”). Codex Bezae presents a still more expanded reading, “But it seemed good to Silas that they remain, and Judas journeyed alone.”

The insertion, whether in the longer or the shorter version, was no doubt made by copyists to account for the presence of Silas at Antioch in ver. Acts 15:40.
