These verses are not found in two early manuscripts, but are found in the overwhelming majority of early manuscripts. The following chart depicts 64 pieces of evidence, all of which are texts as old or older than Codex Ephraemi (C), the fifth-oldest Greek manuscript of the Gospel of Mark.

One after another, new versions of the Bible pour off the presses so that it becomes difficult to keep up with them.Is the KJV still the best, or is the NIV better? Are the new versions a help, or a Plague to the Church?
