[The Causes of the Corruption of the Traditional Text of the Holy Gospels by John Burgon]@TWC D-Link bookThe Causes of the Corruption of the Traditional Text of the Holy Gospels CHAPTER V 3/52
By subjoining [Greek: s] to a word in a place which it has no right to fill, the harmony of the heavenly choir has been marred effectually, and a sentence produced which defies translation[98].
By omitting [Greek: to] and [Greek: Kyrie], the repenting malefactor is made to say, 'Jesus! remember me, when Thou comest in Thy kingdom[99].' Speaking of our Saviour's triumphal entry into Jerusalem, which took place 'the day after' 'they made Him a supper' and Lazarus 'which had been dead, whom He raised from the dead,' 'sat at the table with Him' (St.John xii.
1, 2), St.John says that 'the multitude which had been with Him _when_ He called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised Him from the dead bare testimony' (St.John xii.
17).
The meaning of this is best understood by a reference to St.Luke xix.
