154 Josep Rius-Camps and Jenny Read-Heimerdinger d P74 a A E H L P Ψ 049. 056. 33. 1739c M (h).— τῷ Παύλῳ B P74 a rell || συλλαλήσαντεϛ μεθ’ ἑαυτῶν ἐπὶ τὸν Παύλον D, conloquentes inter semet ipsos de Paulo d h.— (καὶ) ἐπιθέντεϛ τὰϛ χεῖραϛ D, (imponentes manum d h syh** sa) || om. B P74 a rell. τε read by D05 is assumed to have arisen through phonetic confusion with δέ, since the fronting of Gallio clearly signals a new episode, which Luke always connects with δέ to the previous one (Levinsohn, Discourse Features, pp. 17–18). The place of ὁμοθυμαδόν before the subject in D05 makes it clear that it refers to the first verb and not the second (omitted by B03). From a grammatical point of view, D05 has two examples in this verse of a series of two verbs that have the same object, specified only once despite the two verbs requiring different cases. Thus, D05 spells out four actions on the part of the Jews: they launched a united attack on Paul after conferring among themselves, and having seized him they took him off to the court. B03 omits the second and the third of these actions. The hostility of the Jews is accentuated in D05 compared with B03; a similar comparison could be made with Paul’s letters where the denunciation of the Jewish opposition to himself is even stronger than in D05 of Acts. Such observations tell against the author of D05 writing from a Gentile point of view or adding his anti-Judaic sentiments as a later revision of the original. (ἤγαγον) ἐπὶ τὸ βῆμα B D, ad tribunal d P74 rell || παρὰ τ. β. a. With παρά in a01, βῆμα would be the platform in the Agora from where justice was administered and to which Paul was taken. In the other MSS that read the preposition ἐπί, βῆμα refers to the court overall, by way of metonymy. 18:13 καταβοῶντεϛ καὶ (λέγοντεϛ) D, clamantes et d h || om.

D E (H) L P Ψ 049. 056. 614 M e gig vg. καταβοάω in D05 is a New Testament hapax; the insistence on the noise made by those opposing Paul is typical of Codex Bezae (cf. 16:22 D05.39b D05; 17:6). οὗτοϛ in pre-verb position in D05 brings Paul into an emphatic posi- tion and also aligns him more closely with the charge that he is acting παρὰ τὸν νόμον. 18:14 ἄνδρεϛ (Ἰουδαῖοι) D, viri d h vg || om. B P74 a rell. The form of address in D05 is found in other speeches in Acts (1:11; 2:14.22; 3:12; 5:35; 13:16.26; 15:7.13; 17:22). The presence of ἄνδρεϛ here tempers any annoyance in Gallio’s response (a similar reading is found
