D in this place actually reads as follows:--[Greek: kathemeran epi to auto en te ekklesia.

En de tais hemerais tautais Petros k.t.l.]: the scribe with simplicity both giving us the liturgical formula with which it was usual to introduce the Gospel for the Friday after Easter, and permitting us to witness the perplexity with which the evident surplusage of [Greek: te ekklesia epi to auto] occasioned him.

He inverts those two expressions and thrusts in a preposition.

How obvious it now was to solve the difficulty by getting rid of [Greek: te ekklesia].
It does not help the adverse case to shew that the Vulgate as well as the copy of Cyril of Alexandria are disfigured with the same corrupt reading as [Symbol: Aleph]ABC.

It does but prove how early and how widespread is this depravation of the Text.
