NET on the Absence of Mark 11:26 in Various Greek Manuscripts

I am currently reading the Gospel of Mark in Greek in preparation for a dialogue on Christology in 2022, and making some short posts about “missing verses” for those interested in textual criticism on this blog.

 

Mark 11:26 in the KJV reads:

 

But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses GK: Εἰ δὲ ὑμεῖς οὐκ ἀφίετε, οὐδὲ ὁ πατὴρ ὑμῶν ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς ἀφήσει τὰ παραπτώματα ὑμῶν. (Mk. 11:26).

 

This is missing in the NRSV and other translations. As the NET's note to Mark 11:25 informs us:

 

A number of significant MSS of various texttypes (א‎‏‎ B L W Δ Ψ 565 700 892 pc sa) do not include Mar 11:26 "But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your sins." The verse is included in most later MSS (A [C D] Θ [ƒ^{1, 13} 33] Û lat) and is not likely to be original. It is probably an assimilation to Mat 6:15.
