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.

TEXTGRAMMARTRANSLATIONunresolved confidence
Who—or what—is greater than all in verse 29?
The variant changes the grammatical subject of ‘greater than all,’ but every reading supports the following claim that no one can seize the sheep from the Father’s hand.
Why this default
The difficult neuter reading is the working default because it best explains why scribes repeatedly regularized the grammar toward the Father as subject. The evidence is unusually divided, so every principal construal remains selectable.
Evidence
ExternalB* and much early Latin evidence support the neuter gift-reading; P66 and a wide Greek tradition support the masculine Father-reading; other major codices preserve mixed forms.
InternalOnly one Greek letter separates ‘who’ from ‘what,’ and vowel exchange can change ‘greater’ from masculine to neuter. The difficult reading could readily generate the smoother alternatives.

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.
