Bible Note: Greetings The Bible is Right! I believe every translation includes the passage, but they also footnote that it is not original. As to why they include it at all, the reason is because there is a lot of textual evidence for it and the reading is ancient. However, there is also a lot of textual evidence against it, which is even older. If you study textual criticism you will quickly discover that there are many disputed passages included in Scripture. However, most of these revolve around word order, spelling, ect.... Mark 16:9-20 is different in the sense that it involves the inclusion or exclusion of a quite lengthy passage. My approach to Mark 16:9-20 is that since we can't tell for sure if it is original or not, it is best not to base doctrine on it. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
