Concerning the respective value of the different readings , Griosbach observes , that the MSS . which have Qsov are all recent , and either wholly worthless or miserably interpolated in many places . This he proves by examining their readings in other places .

The authorities which patronize xvgiov have always been followed by Griesbach , in the Acts , when they agree ; the whole text of this book , therefore , must stand or fall with that reading .
