The evidence beneath the English

Every consequential choice
leaves a record.

The published library was developed through direct Greek analysis, lexical work, and manuscript comparison. Where surviving witnesses materially disagree, the competing Greek readings and their effect on English remain open to the reader.

standardized inspectable Greek reference edition

Textual basis

SBL Greek New Testament

Edited by Michael W. Holmes. The project's standardized, publicly inspectable Greek reference edition. It is not presented as retroactive proof that every existing chapter originated from one uniform printed edition.

This is an honest reference claim, not a retroactive claim that all completed work began from one uniform printed edition. Material manuscript forks remain independently documented at the reading they affect.

Πάντα / Πάντα μοι ἔξεστιν

TEXTRHETORICTRANSLATIONhigh confidence

Does the slogan say all things are lawful, or lawful for me?

The critical editions omit ‘for me’ in both repetitions. Robinson-Pierpont adds it twice; Paul answers the slogan with benefit and community-building.

Why this default

The critical shorter slogan is default; RP’s twice-added ‘for me’ remains explicit.

Evidence

ExternalNo separate external-evidence note is recorded for this stable-text decision.

InternalAdding ‘for me’ makes the slogan explicitly first-person and may reflect assimilation to 1 Corinthians 6:12.

Project default“All things are permitted,” but not all things are beneficial. “All things are permitted,” but not all things build up

Record integrity

One registry drives both the reader and this record.

The manifest is regenerated from the translation source before every production build. Its source digest is 7c4cbee907fbc0e84976d6e78a615134e2288f8197ce8abcf67b0452155ddc84.

Decision-level revision history begins with this ledger. Earlier development is not reconstructed into false precision; future material changes can be appended to the relevant record with their reason and date.
