"that they may be one"
-Jesus, as quoted in John's gospel
Curious thing, that. In the oldest extant manuscript there is a sort of
smudge at this point in the text. Copyists and translators for centuries
skipped over it - unable to make it out. But modern spectrographic analysis
of the page reveals that following this versicle we find:
AKATASTASIAChAOU
Parsed and added to the above versicle it reads:
"...that they may be one [Hell of a mess]."
That should make the true believers happier. Otherwise we must ask
ourselves "What were Jesus' big mistakes?" since it did NOT turn out as the
unaugmented text says was Jesus' intent.
