chapter-level decision records generated from the live translation registry
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
Mark 5
mark.5.m5Saved
σωθήσομαι / σέσωκέν σε
Does sōzō mean healed, saved, or both here?
The same verb describes the woman’s expectation and Jesus’s declaration. It can mean rescue, save, make whole, or heal; using one English root keeps the repetition visible.
Why this default
The repeated ‘saved’ root is default because the same sōzō verb joins the woman’s expectation to Jesus’s declaration and allows rescue and healing to remain united. Rendering both occurrences as ‘healed’ clarifies the physical result but narrows Mark’s word.

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.
