On the other hand, this Gospel speaks of Jesus as Lord in the evangelist’s narrative descriptions elsewhere only in 11:2; 20:18, 20; 21:12 ; and probably 6:23 , preferring ᾿Ιησοῦς most of the time. This fact could be used to argue that scribes, acquainted with John’s style, changed κύριος to ᾿Ιησοῦς . But the immediate context generally is weighed more heavily than an author’s style. It is possible that neither word was in the original text and scribes supplied what they thought most appropriate (see TCGNT 176). But without ms evidence to this effect coupled with the harder reading ᾿Ιησοῦς , this conjecture must remain doubtful. All in all, it is best to regard ᾿Ιησοῦς as the original reading here.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/John%204%3A1/1"}
