        That is good to know, I suspected there were more such errors.

        Anyway, if I indeed get permission from IBB I will try to get
a pristine copy.

        It would be nice to know which Atualizada and which Corrigida
are these.  Both have quite recent second editions, markedly better
than the originals, but anyway I doubt you will be able to get
permissions on them.  No harm trying.

        The Trinitarian AFAIK is a Corrigida too, as is Fiel, but they
are unimpressive.  If they are truly aligned with the TR-only
(Majority fans, AKA KJV-onlyism) sect, they could despise copy rights
enough to grant permission.

        BTW, I too oppose copy rights, but not on the same grounds as
KJV-onlyists.

        No NIH syndrome here, it is only that instead of merely
relying on authority it is better to understand the authority's
arguments.
