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.
Translation record
Acts 17
acts.17.ac17FromOne
ἐξ ἑνός
From what did God make every nation?
The statement grounds all peoples in a shared divine act rather than separate divine origins.
Why this default
The compact default reads from one without a supplied noun. The dominant expansion adds blood; a very small stream reads mouth.
Evidence
ExternalFrom one is supported by P74, א, A, B, 33, 81, 181, 323, 629, 630, 1175, 1739, and 1891 with broad versional support. From one blood is read by D, E, L, P, 049, 056, 0142, 36, 88, 307, 453, 610, 614, 945 and the Byzantine tradition. Ψ and two lectionaries read from one mouth.
InternalThe bare adjective invites clarification. Blood supplies a traditional idiom of common ancestry, making expansion more likely than accidental omission.

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.
