			====John Chrysostom====
			John Chrysostom writes:

			:And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness; God [θεός] was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit.

			:Here he speaks of the Dispensation in our behalf. Tell me not of the bells, nor of the holy of holies, nor of the high priest. The Church is the pillar of the world. Consider this mystery, and you may be struck with awe: for it is indeed a great mystery, and a mystery of godliness, and that without controversy or question, for it is beyond all doubt. Since in his directions to the Priests he had required nothing like what is found in Leviticus he refers the whole matter to Another, saying, God was manifest in the flesh. The Creator was seen incarnate. (Homily XI on First Timothy) [https://books.google.com.au/books?id=C4PYAAAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false]

			====New American Bible Revised Edition====
			The New American Bible Revised Edition, which reads the wording as a reference to Christ, notes that:
			:Some predominantly Western manuscripts read 'which', harmonizing the gender of the pronoun with that of the Greek word for mystery; many later (eighth/ninth century on), predominantly Byzantine manuscripts read 'God', possibly for theological reasons.

			:Quod manifestum est in carne.) graece secus est, θεὸς ἐφανερώθη ἐν σαρκί, id est, deus manifestatus est in carne, et quae sequuntur, ad deum referenda sunt. Ambrosius et vulgatus interpres legerunt pro θεὸς ὅ, id est quod. Secus legunt Chrysostomus et Vulgarius, quos si sequi volumus, genera participiorum mutanda sunt, iustificatus, praedicatus, creditus, assumptus. Caeterum utra lectio sit verior ambigo nonnihil. Offendit Laurentium quomodo mysterium dicatur assumptum in gloriam. At cur non magis offendit, quod deus dicitur iustificatus? Id quod ne in Christum quidem prima fonte satis congruit. Siquidem de Christo interpretatur Ambro. Mihi subolet, deum additum fuisse adversus hereticos Arrianos. Caeterum mea quidem sententia simplicissima fuerit interpretatio, si quis mysterium intelligat praedicationem euangelii, quod saepe alias mysterium vocat, prius occultum et ignotum, nunc manifestatum universo mundo.

			====[[Isaac Newton]]====
			In ''[[An Historical Account of Two Notable Corruptions of Scripture]]'' (posthumously published in 1754), [[Isaac Newton]] argues that a small change to early Greek versions of this verse effectively changed "which" (referring to godliness) was changed to "God". This change increases textual support for [[trinitarianism]], a doctrine to which [[Religious views of Isaac Newton\|Newton did not subscribe]].

	Many agree that the grammar with the corruption is a solecism. The Unitarian reviser (with ebionite leanings) who was on Westcott and Hort's New Testament committee and clearly no supporter of "God was manifest in the flesh" wrote that "ὅς is "difficult, and hardly admissible" as referring to mystery (the closest antecedent and adopted by many of the scholars working with the corruption.) Then Smith goes to "Christ" as the subject almost by default, despite the fact that this is strained, unnatural and far afield.		Many agree that the grammar with the corruption is a solecism.

			===Companion Reference Bible===
			:God. The R.V. prints “He Who” and adds in the margin “''Theos'' (God) rests on no significant evidence.” The probability is that the original reading was ''ho'' (which) with the Syriac and all the Latin versions, to agree with muterion (neut.). The Gr. uncial being Ο, some scribe added the letter s, making ΟC (He Who), which he thought made better sense. Later another put a mark in this Ο, making the word <span style="text-decoration: overline">ΘC</span>, the contraction for ΘEOC, God. This mark in Codex A, in the Brittish Museum, is said by some to be in different ink.

	Many agree that the grammar with the corruption is a solecism. The Unitarian reviser (with ebionite leanings) who was on Westcott and Hort's New Testament committee and clearly no supporter of "God was manifest in the flesh" wrote that "ὅς is "difficult, and hardly admissible" as referring to mystery (the closest antecedent and adopted by many of the scholars working with the corruption.) Then Smith goes to "Christ" as the subject almost by default, despite the fact that this is strained, unnatural and far afield.		Many agree that the grammar with the corruption is a solecism.
