Luke 23:17 — a Verse the Oldest Greek Leaves Out

The verse, as the witnesses that keep it read: “(For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)”

All below share the same shape: preserved in the Aramaic Peshitta and the Byzantine / TR / KJV; absent in the critical Greek (SBLGNT); status witness-attested, disputed; Aramaic verse-text pending. This method re-discovered the entire known omissions list from scratch — Acts 8:37, the Markan refrains, and the rest.
