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.

TEXTBOUNDARYhigh confidence
Does the repeated forgiveness saying belong here?
The earliest major witnesses omit verse 26. Later manuscripts add a saying closely parallel to Matthew 6:15.
Why this default
Omission is default because the earliest and strongest witnesses move directly from verse 25 to the authority controversy. The added verse closely reproduces a familiar Matthean saying.
Evidence
ExternalOmit: א, B, L, W, Δ, Ψ and important early versions; include: A, C, D, K, Θ, families 1/13 and the Byzantine tradition.
InternalA parallel forgiveness maxim is readily added to balance verse 25; coordinated early deletion has no comparable motive.

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.
