Luke 24:49 kai. @ivdou.# evgw, {C}

On the one hand, the agreement of î75 and D, along with a L 33 ita, b, c, d, e, ff2, l, r1 vg syrs, p copsa, bo, provides strong support for the shorter text. Likewise there is no reason why the solemn emphatic wording kai. ivdou. evgw,, which seems especially suitable for the last words of Jesus, should have been altered by copyists. On the other hand, however, the Committee, being impressed by the weight of the attestation supporting the reading kai. ivdou. evgw,, preferred to retain the word ivdou,, but to enclose it within square brackets, indicating doubt that it belongs in the text.
