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.

Does the itinerary say they stayed at Trogyllium?
Trogyllium was a coastal waypoint south of Samos that would add an overnight stop to the itinerary.
Why this default
The shorter itinerary has the earliest and widest support; the stop at Trogyllium is a later geographical expansion.
Evidence
ExternalThe reading without Trogyllium is supported by P74, א, A, B, C and early versions. The stop appears in D, E and the later Byzantine tradition.
InternalA named overnight stop naturally elaborates the compressed itinerary and is less likely to disappear independently from the principal early streams.

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.
