On P69 (P. Oxy. 2383) (late second or early third century):
The manuscript does not include Luke 22:42-44. The
editor of this papyrus, E. G. Gurner, is fairly confident that the only way to
account for this large lacuna is to assume that the copyist’s exemplar did not
contain Luke 22:43-44 and that verse 42 was omitted during copying. Thus, P69
is one of the earliest witnesses to the omission of this text, along with P75, א1,
B, T, and W. (Philip Wesley Comfort and David P. Barrett, The Text of the
Earliest New Testament Greek Manuscripts, 2 vols. [3d ed; Grand Rapids, Mich.:
