:*This first 10 omitted verses ({{bibleref|John|6|12-21}} is a copy, sometimes verbatim, from {{bibleref|Mark|6|43-52}}, but [[John]] did not have access to the [[Gospel of Mark]] (and vice-versa).  Thus the omission of these ten verses from this earliest manuscript and their close similarity to ten verses in Mark strongly suggest that these verses were inserted later by a scribe.
 
*John 14:27-28, 31 (3 verses), see {{bibleref|John|14|27-28}}
 
*John 14:27-28, 31 (3 verses), see {{bibleref|John|14|27-28}}
 
:*These two verses (27-28) appear to be off-key in several ways.  The do not say "peace be with you," but rather "my peace I give to you"; these verses criticize the [[Apostles]] for not rejoicing that [[Jesus]] is leaving them; and these verses state that "for the Father is greater than I [Jesus]" when they are one and the same under the [[Trinity]].
