Chris–
Glenn in his podcast with you said that Codex Sinaiticus (Aleph), in Lk, 23:43 had a comma between LEGW (I say to you) and SHMERON (today). I’ve checked the codex here (http://tinyurl.com/cbh4klo), and it’s clear that there is no comma where Glenn claimed there was one. I wonder if he simply misspoke or misremembered the ms that has that intriguing feature. Do you suppose you could pass this note along to him on my behalf? Thanks–Webb
p.s. here is a hyper-closeup of the passage with a virtual box around the area where the comma would be expected to be found. http://www.simplegospel.net/images/Lk2343.jpg.

I messed up my question. It should read, Glenn in his podcast with you said that Codex Sinaiticus (Aleph), in Lk, 23:43 had a comma between SHMERON (today) and MET’ EMOU(with me).
