2 As one whose primary interest in the NT field is textual criticism, I am thankful that the Passage under discussion contains no variants to invalidate (or reinforce) my arguments. Zuntz, G., The Text of the Epistles (London, 1953), pp. 126 and 195Google Scholar, refers only to the doubtful ñ at the beginning of v. 16.

J., Das Leib des Messias: eine exegetische Studie über den Gedanken vom Leib Christi in den Paulusbriefen (Assen, 1961)Google Scholar is a valuable corrective here, esp. pp. 145 ff., where the German an der Dirne hängt and am Herrn hängt suggests conclusions similar to, if not identical with those presented here: p. 145 n. 2 contains an excellent summary of scholarly opinion at the time when his monograph was written.

4 We may surely regard the variants κολλόμενοι read by G and καλλόμενοι by F as scribal errors.
