The claim that these are "original" readings is clearly not supported by the evidence, it is a confirmation bias conclusion by those with Greek Byzantine-Majority perspective.

One of these,

Matthew 9:4 (AV)
And Jesus knowing their thoughts said,
Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

was presented at CARM as an AV minority Greek error, and I did an in-depth check:

Matthew 9:4 - "And Jesus, knowing their thoughts ..."

Turns out the case for the AV text is very strong.
