Manuscript Evidence

John 7:8

“Not yet” is the reading of the two earliest manuscripts of John, the papyri 𝔓66 and 𝔓75 of about AD 200, of Codex Vaticanus, and of the great majority of Greek manuscripts, and Westcott and Hort and the Tyndale House Greek New Testament print it. With “yet,” Jesus’ words agree with his going up to the feast in verse 10.

The King James Bible

8 Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time is not yet full come. Read John 7
οὔπω oupō
