Re: "Through the Faith of Christ" Gal 3:26
Timothy,
The UBS text does not list every unit of variation. It was intended
for translators, not New Testament researchers. The Nestle-Aland
complement of the UBS text would likely have the variant but I am
home and my copy is at the office. As for Lightfoot, I expect that
the papyrus was not known to him--it may still have been undiscovered.
