Upon this Dr. Westcott remarks:
Such an array of authorities, drawn from different schools, cannot
but appear overwhelming; and the fact that about half of them are
quoted twice over emphasises the implied precision of their
testimony as to the two points affirmed." [88:1]
Dr. Westcott however, has either overlooked or omitted to state the fact
that, although some of the writers are quoted twice, the two notes
differ in almost every particular, many of the names in note 3 being
absent from note 4, other names being inserted in the latter which do
not appear in the former, an alteration being in most cases made in the
place referred to, and the order in which the authorities are placed
being significantly varied.
