→‎Greek syntax of the last word of 16:8 disproves its authenticity: Having "γάρ" as the last word of a book is as unlikely as having "since" or "because" as the last word of a book.

The last word in the reported verse 16:8 is "γάρ", which is a post-positive term in Greek such that it is usually the second word in a sentence.  "γάρ" is a conjunction meaning "for" or "since", with the reason to follow.  It is exceedingly unlikely that the word "γάρ" would be the last word in a book.
