Thanks to "CC" who discovered at least
one minuscule which includes the TR reading for Ephesians 3:9. The manuscript
is 2817 which the INTF dates to c. 1000-1099 is located in the Universitätsbibliothek Basel. This may well have
been at least one of the mss. which Erasmus consulted in preparing his Greek NT of
1516.
Here’s the note from CC posted to the comments on
the WM 138 blogpost:
Ah, I
found a manuscript that reads κοινωνία: 2817 from the 11th century (according
the Scrivener and the INTF). It's in the INTF's NTVMR, page ID 5190. Apparently
this is where Erasmus got the reading from.
Here’s a big picture image of a section from the larger page
(ID 5190):
Here is a closeup featuring the variant in question in Ephesians 3:9 in the main text (left side of big picture above): τις η κοινωνια του μυστηριου.

Good hunting, CC.
ReplyDeleteI suppose I'm gonna have to hammer out something to address this passage in detail.
