Mark,

Assuming that we need to choose between options #1 & #2 (do we need to?),
the proximity of EPEGNWTE THN CARIN and the fact that the semantic
properties of EPEGNWTE and EMAQTE seem somewhat complementary, I would lean
toward #1. However, I am not convinced that this choice is really forced
upon us.

I will leave there and let the Pauline rhetoric specialists take up the
question when the get up tomorrow morning.
