This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
22. ἀποκατήλλαξεν אACDcKL(P), Vulg. Syrr. Boh.; ἀποκατηλλάγητε B (17 ἀποκατηλλακηται) appy Hilary of Poitiers; ἀποκαταλλαγέντες D*FgrG, Irenint. Ambrst.

The participle is almost certainly due to the analogy of the preceding ἀπηλλοτριωμένους. But it is difficult to decide between the two finite verbs. Lightfoot thinks that ἀποκατήλλαξεν “is probably a grammatical correction to straighten the syntax” (add. note).

τῆς σαρκὸς, omitted by Marcion for theological reasons.
