This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

13. For ηγεισθαι, B cop go syrhcl aeth have ηγεισθε—an error partly of itacistic confusion, and partly of misinterpretation. B shows the same trick in 2Th 2:2, θροεισθε (-αι); cf. the double alternative of imperative or infinitive in 2Th 3:14.

υπερεκπερισσως: so in BD*G (WH margin). -σσου in the rest may be due to 1Th 3:10 and Eph 3:20; cf. Mar 14:31 (εκπερισσως).

(a) (ειρηνευετε εν) αυτοις, אD*GP, some minn., f vg cum eis; probably Western: (b) εαυτοις, ABDcKL. The harshness of (a) appears in the rendering of εν by cum in the vg: the reading αυτοις has been “mechanically conformed to αυτους and αυτων” in the same verse (Weiss).
