Hebrews 10:38 di,kaio,j mou evk pi,stewj {B}

Influenced by the citation of the same Old Testament quotation in Romans 1:17 and Galatians 3:11, where Paul omits the personal pronoun mou( î13 and the majority of later witnesses (Dc Hc K P Y 81 614 Byz Lect), followed by the Textus Receptus, omit the word here. But it undoubtedly belongs in the text, being strongly supported by early and reliable witnesses. The only question, however, is where it belongs, some (î46 a A H* 33vid 257 383 1175 1739 1831 1875 itar, comp, r vg copsa arm Clement al) placing it after di,kaioj, and others (D* 1518 1611 itd syrp, h Eusebius) placing it after pi,stewj. (The same kind of variation occurs in the manuscripts of the Septuagint of Habakkuk 2:4, where pi,stew,j mou is read by a B Q W* [W is the Freer papyrus dating from the third century; Wc deletes mou], whereas A and the minuscules of the Catena magna read di,kaio,j mou.) In view of the strong external support, the Committee preferred the reading di,kaio,j mou.
