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.

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.

GRAMMARTRANSLATIONmoderate confidence
How is Abraham’s response to Jesus’s day described?
Agalliaō is stronger than ordinary happiness: rejoice greatly or exult. The hina clause may express purpose or anticipated result.
Why this default
“Rejoiced that he would see my day” is default because it carries agalliaō’s joy and allows the hina clause to express anticipated result without cumbersome English. “Exulted at the prospect” foregrounds intensity; “in order to see” preserves purpose more mechanically.
Evidence

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 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.
