Verification
Passage, received reading, principal SBLGNT reading, and reported NA28 alignment checked against Scrivener’s received Greek text and the official SBLGNT text and comparison apparatus; exhaustive manuscript collation remains open. Metzger commentary entries were matched by exact passage where present; ECM/CBGM rationale is passage-specific only when an official editorial explanation is cited.

Acts 28:1 — Melita, Melitene, or Another Island? Identifying Paul’s Landfall

The verbal subject changes from third-person plural in Scrivener—‘they knew’—to first-person plural in SBLGNT and NA28—‘we learned.’ Both print Μελίτη, Melita or Malta; only Westcott–Hort’s apparatus alternative points to Melitene.

Adverse entailment established

Acts 26:28 — “Almost Thou Persuadest Me to Be a Christian”: What Did Agrippa Mean?

Scrivener uses γενέσθαι, ‘to become,’ while SBLGNT and NA28 use ποιῆσαι, ‘to make.’ The phrase ἐν ὀλίγῳ may concern a little time or a small argument, so Agrippa’s tone can be earnest, evasive, or ironic without changing the Greek text.
