John:8:57 @{Thou art not yet fifty years old} (\pentkonta eti oup echeis\). Literally, "Thou hast not yet fifty years." Not meaning that Jesus was near that age at all. It was the crisis of completed manhood (Numbers:4:3|) and a round number. Jesus was about thirty to thirty-three. {And hast thou seen Abraham?} (\Kai Abraam herakas;\). Songs:A C D and B W Theta have \herakes\, both second person singular of the perfect active indicative of \hora\. But Aleph, Sin-syr., Coptic versions (accepted by Bernard) have \kai Abraam herake se?\ "Has Abraam seen thee?" Either makes sense here.
