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.

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.

TEXTGRAMMARmoderate confidence
How is Timothy’s encouragement related to their faith?
The variation changes the grammatical target of Timothy’s encouragement: their faith can be presented as the cause served or the topic addressed directly to them.
Why this default
‘For the sake of your faith’ follows the shorter SBLGNT construction; the expanded reading makes the Thessalonians the explicit object and shifts the relation to ‘concerning.’
Evidence
ExternalSBLGNT apparatus: ὑπὲρ — WH, Treg, NA28; ὑμᾶς περὶ — RP.
InternalThe compressed prepositional phrase could readily be expanded to clarify both object and topic.

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.
