... Here's the interesting thing. Only the Pauline epistles and Hebrews (written by Paul I think) have supscriptions. This makes me think that subscriptions are genuine, maybe a habit of Paul or his assistants. But don't quote me. :smilewinkgrin:

John, does this mean you will include the subscriptions in your translation work?

John, does this mean you will include the subscriptions in your translation work?

Since I'm working from Stephanus (into Japanese, for BB readers who don't know), and he has them, I'm including them. But to cover all bases I'm fudging by centering them and setting them one line down from the last verse. :smilewinkgrin:

Since posting on this thread I've had an interesting exchange with a textual scholar I much respect who pointed out to me among other things that (1) no textual scholar thinks the Pauline subscriptions are in the original mss. (2) There are historical errors in the subscriptions of Stephanus.

So it looks like I must rebel against Stephanus and excise them from my translation! :saint:
