Matthew 12:6
12:6 I 1 tell you that something greater than the temple is here.
Matthew 14:16
14:16 But he 2 replied, “They don’t need to go. You 3 give them something to eat.”
1 tn Here δέ (de) has not been translated.
2 tc ‡ The majority of witnesses read ᾿Ιησοῦς (Ihsous, “Jesus”) here, perhaps to clarify the subject. Although only a few Greek mss, along with several versional witnesses (א* D Zvid 579 1424 pc e k sys,c,p sa bo), lack the name of Jesus, the omission does not seem to be either accidental or malicious and is therefore judged to be most likely the original reading. Nevertheless, a decision is difficult. NA27 has the word in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity.
3 tn Here the pronoun ὑμεῖς (Jumeis) is used, making “you” in the translation emphatic.
