The evidence beneath the English
Every consequential choice
leaves a record.
John, Mark, Matthew, and Luke were 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
John 13
john.13.glorifyClause13
εἰ ὁ θεὸς ἐδοξάσθη ἐν αὐτῷ
Does verse 32 repeat the conditional clause?
A wide later tradition includes ‘If God is glorified in him.’ P66, Sinaiticus first hand, Vaticanus, Bezae and other early witnesses omit it.
Why this default
The shorter reading is default because it has exceptionally early and diverse support. The repeated clause may be original and lost by eye-skip, so the expanded reading remains fully available.
Evidence
ExternalOmit: P66, א*, B, C*, D, L, W, X, Π; include: א², A, C², K, Δ, Θ, Ψ and broad later tradition.
InternalRepetition could cause accidental omission, while scribes could also add the conditional to make the logic explicit.

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 450adc54c1fc782fbae5e9ed6a640a2ae0e3be080722ac134c84e1248c2a312a.
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.
