This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

9. εχομεν (for εχετε) in אcD*G 67**, latt vg syrhcl, Chr Ambrst; while B, am, Pelag read ειχομεν—probably a Western emendation, pointing to an older εχομεν. Weiss, however, and Tregellesmg prefer ειχομεν as the hardest reading, regarding εχετε as conformed to 1Th 4:1; see Expository Note. εχετε, in א*ADcHKL, &c., cop syrpesh aeth. The 1st plural looks like a stylistic assimilation to παρακαλουμεν δε, 1Th 4:10.
