Dear Mark:

I have examined this subject very carefully, with the following results:

4:26; 7:49 (LXX; after MOI ["for me"] some manuscripts [26, 239, the Lucianic
recension and others] read LEGEI KURIOS ["Lord (Jehovah) says"], as we find
in the quote in Ac 7:49); 15:17 (twice; quote from the LXX; for this text's
inclusion of "the Lord" [TON KURION] into the text of Amos 9:12, see A, 49,
198, 407, 456, 534 and others); Rom 4:3, 8; 9:28, 29; 10:13, 16; 11:3, 34;

QUOTATION OF AN OT TEXT RELATING TO AN ACTION ON JEHOVAH'S PART THAT IS
PRECEDED OR FOLLOWED BY A REFERENCE TO "GOD" OR "LORD" IN THE NT

(twice); Jude 5, 14 (compare 1 Enoch 1:9)
