Martin Heide on Erasmus

"Erasmus introduced ... some Latin readings into the Greek text. For example, in Acts 9:5–6 ... this phrase ... is actually found in some later Latin manuscripts and in the printed Latin editions of Erasmus’s time"
And I would think we should point out that this is not just a late Latin reading, it is an ancient text that the LaParola apparatus lists as 7-1 inclusion in the Old Latin line, considered to be from the 2nd century, some versional support and Lucifer Ephraem Ambrose Theophylact in the early church writers from the 4th century. Perhaps Hilary as well.
The textual critics do like to overlook evidence that supports Textus Receptus readings that are not supported or weakly supported in the extant Greek manuscripts.
Jan Krans writes some helpful background on p. 58-61 of Beyond What is Written with the normal spin and similarly omitting early evidences for the text.
Thanks!
