The evidence for the text reading is spelled two different ways. The UBS text follows the spelling of an Alexandrian dialect of Greek. The evidence listed in braces has a more usual form of the word. The third person plural was probably changed to the second person plural by copyists because of the great number of references to “plyou” in the surrounding verses.

NEBnCOMMENTS: Some copyists have apparently replaced “in every way” with “in every place,” an expression found several times elsewhere (see 1 Corinthians 1:2; 2 Corinthians 2:14; 1 Thessalonians 1:8; 1 Timothy 2:8).
