Bible Question: It appears that this question on the omission of Matthew 18:11 has come up before. However, it doesn't seem that a favorable answer was given. Does anyone have a reason other than "translation" or "version?" Could it be intentional? If so, why? |
Bible Answer: Deacon Art, "Some manuscripts add, "For the Son of Man has come to save what was lost"; cf Matthew 9:13. This is practically identical with Luke 19:10 and is probably a copyist's addition from that source." NAB footnote for Matt 18:11 http://www.nccbuscc.org/nab/bible/matthew/matthew18.htm Emmaus |
