D (both Greek and Latin)

The words translated “does not need” are literally “has no need.” The evidence listed above in braces adds the word “only” after “feet.” Although it is possible that “except for [his] feet” was added by copyists, it is more likely that the words were omitted by a few copyists because the next phrase says “he is wholly clean.”

John 13:18

KJV ASVn : It is possible that a few copyists changed the quotation to read like Psalms 41:9 in the Greek Old Testament (“my bread”). On the other hand, it is also possible that other copyists changed this passage to read like Mark 14:18 (“who is eating with me”).

ASV RSV NASV : “Peter nodded to him to inquire who it might be about whom he was speaking and said* to him, ‘Tell [us] who it is about whom he is speaking’”

S

The evidence listed above in braces omits “who it might be.” The text reading uses the optative mood, which is a more difficult grammatical construction than that found in the notes. Although the optative is found nowhere else in John and this might be considered proof that this reading was added by copyists, it is more likely that several Alexandrian copyists and Latin translators changed this to a simpler construction. The text reading is found in early manuscripts of several kinds of ancient text. Manuscript S has included both readings. The original reading of manuscript p66 is illegible.

John 13:32

:TEXT: “and God is glorified in him; ·if God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in him”

ASV NASVn NIVn NEBnCOMMENTS: Although several early manuscripts of several different kinds of ancient text omit the words “if God is glorified in him,” they were probably omitted accidently when copyists’ eyes jumped from the similar phrase in verse 31 to this phrase, or perhaps deliberately as redundant.
