      &c . All that can be said of this whole family of M . SS . is , merely that it does not always differ froiti

      the good readings of the few co * - pies . But readings to be found in this set alone , if some belonging to Codex 16 be excepted , are of very little value .

      From all these things it clearly appears that Qeov is not supported by even one good MS . uhicfi ^ from its antiquity , or its intrinsic excellence , can be complimeiitdd with the title of a competent atfii uncorrupted witness . It is ttSt found , except in modern eopiel ^

      more ancient Latin M . SS . contradict , and the Philoxenian Syriac ,
