It might also be an interpretation. <BR/><BR/>I must admit I find it difficult to accept that Ἕλληνές would refer to Hellenistic Jews.<BR/><BR/>I am not entirely convinced that the "best manuscript support" (Aleph, A, B, C*, D*, F, G, L, P, Psi, 33, 1836, alii) is always the final court of appeal, though in this case I accept ἔθνεσιν 'coz it makes better sense also internally.<BR/><BR/>Just a thought.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
