This book

This book has ECM (Editio Critica Maior) apparatus at many verses — hover shows manuscripts cited at that verse. The full book catalog (all manuscripts containing Acts) is available too.

Two manuscript lists

ECM books show both lists: witnesses at this verse (ECM) and all manuscripts whose surviving text includes this book (book catalog). The book catalog is the same at every verse in the book.

Book catalog
Manuscripts whose surviving text includes this book (from the Kurzgefaßte Liste catalog). The same list appears at every verse — it is not verse-specific attestation.
ECM (Editio Critica Maior)
The Editio Critica Maior (ECM) is the scholarly critical edition of the Greek New Testament. Its apparatus records which manuscripts attest each textual variant at a specific verse.
ECM at this verse
Manuscripts cited in the Editio Critica Maior (ECM) apparatus at this specific verse — witnesses for textual variants here. This is usually a smaller set than the full book catalog.

ECM Books tagged ECM have verse-level textual apparatus from the Editio Critica Maior. Other NT books still show the full book-level manuscript catalog on hover.

1One afternoon Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.2And a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those entering the temple courts.3When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money.4Peter looked directly at him, as did John. “Look at us!” said Peter.5So the man gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.6But Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk! ”7Taking him by the right hand, Peter helped him up, and at once the man’s feet and ankles were made strong.8He sprang to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and leaping and praising God.9When all the people saw him walking and praising God,10they recognized him as the man who used to sit begging at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.11While the man clung to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and ran to them in the walkway called Solomon’s Colonnade.12And when Peter saw this, he addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why are you surprised by this? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?13The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His servant Jesus. You handed Him over and rejected Him before Pilate, even though he had decided to release Him.14You rejected the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you.15You killed the Author of life, but God raised Him from the dead, and we are witnesses of this fact.16By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know has been made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through Him that has given him this complete healing in your presence.17And now, brothers, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did your leaders.18But in this way God has fulfilled what He foretold through all the prophets, saying that His Christ would suffer.19Repent, then, and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped away,20that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that He may send Jesus, the Christ, who has been appointed for you.21Heaven must take Him in until the time comes for the restoration of all things, which God announced long ago through His holy prophets.22For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to Him in everything He tells you.23Everyone who does not listen to Him will be completely cut off from among his people. ’24Indeed, all the prophets from Samuel on, as many as have spoken, have proclaimed these days.25And you are sons of the prophets and of the covenant God made with your fathers when He said to Abraham, ‘Through your offspring all the families of the earth will be blessed.’26When God raised up His Servant, He sent Him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”
