Beware of the corrupt "Nestle Aland" Greek text editions
Kurt Aland, admitted his Nestle-Aland editions text are very similar to Westcott-Hort's text, which in turn relied on Vaticanus for their editionsβ οΈπ
"To pursue further the relationship of Nestleβs editions (through the twenty-fifth) to those of Tischendorf and Westcott-Hort, the totals in their respective columns show for Nestle a closer affinity to Westcott-Hort, with only 558 differences as compared with 1262 differences from Tischendortf. Tischendorf relies too frequently on Codex Sinaiticus for establishing his text; since Weiss, Nestleβs third source, shares with Westcott-Hort a tendency to rely on Codex Vaticanus, a relatively close relationship between Nestle and Westcott-Hort is the result (although 558 differences is by no means a negligible amount)."
