NA28/public English Romans 1 and 1 Corinthians 6 contain the verses later cited in criminal and church law against same-sex lives. Later legislatures are other people’s signatures. The heading is Pauline-as-received.

Context

High confidence on the public text; medium on unique statute coefficients.

Paul the Apostle is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.
