Is there a way to determine the number of variant readings in a chapter short of counting them in the NA28 or its Apparatus?

    Again, which mss's. NA28 reports selected varients ... UBS another set of choices ... New Orleans a much bigger selection, and so on.

    If you just want to count a specific apparatus, the usual trick is to search on key words in the apparatus, specific to that apparatus (essentially how I set up my visual filters).

    Well, first you have to figure out how to count them. Is V1+V2 or V1+S2 or S1+S2 or S1+V2 two or four variant readings? What proximity is required to meet your answer?

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
