The Variant Readings of the Western Text of the Acts of the Apostles 151 parallel terms with reference to οἶκοϛ/οἰκία in 16:15.32.34), belonging to a certain Titus Justus. D05, in contrast, has him going into the household (οἶκον) or family of a certain Justus (see next variant). The manuscript of D05 is partially illegible from μεταβὰϛ to ἦλθεν but the evidence for the reconstruction given here is good (cf. Epp, The Theological Tendency, pp. 91–92, though he takes this line to be spoken by Paul because of καί before the finite verb). The sentence is linked asyn- detically to the previous words spoken by Paul (18:6), throwing Paul’s action of moving to the household (οἶκοϛ) of a Gentile into sharp relief; the article before Aquila is to be expected, the reference being anaphoric (cf. 18:2); and καί between a participle and a main verb is a feature of the Bezan text (cf. on 18:2 above). In principle, the text could also be reconstructed as μεταβὰϛ δὲ ἀπὸ Ἀκύλα (N-A28; cf. d5) where δέ marks the new development following Paul’s declaration, and the absence of the article before Aquila establishes the contrast between him and Justus in the following line.

D05* seems to have read ὀνόματοϛ Ἰούστου, which is difficult to make sense of unless the name is taken in apposition to τινὸϛ ... σεβομένου. The inclusion of the name Titius, as in B03, may be due to dittography: ονοματιτιτιου. a01 has the name of the Greek companion of Paul (cf. 2 Cor. 7:6-7.13-15; cf. 2:13; Gal. 2:1-3), who is never mentioned in Acts. The inclusion of Titius makes this the only place in Luke–Acts where a character is introduced with ὀνόματι and two names; if the second is some kind of given name, Luke would normally indicate it as such with a term like καλούμενοϛ. 18:8 Κρίσποϛ δὲ ὃ ἀρχισυνάγωγοϛ B P74 a rell || ὁ δὲ ἀρχ. Κρ. D, vero archisynagogus Crispus d (h). The B03 word order is the more usual one, where the interest lies in the person himself. With the order function – name, D05 displays a greater interest in the function of Crispus as the leader of the synagogue than as a person in his own right. This focus is in keeping with the at- tention paid by the D05 text throughout this episode to Paul’s synagogue activity (cf. 18:4.6). The term ὁ ἀρχισυνάγωγοϛ follows directly from the mention of the synagogue in the previous clause, the contiguity of the two terms reflecting the link between them.
