raised dotted interpolation marker

Raised Dotted Interpolation Marker

In Greek New Testament notes, ⸇ points to a second passage where one text version has extra wording. It identifies that variant type; it does not judge whether the wording is right.

What ⸇ means

It marks a second added passage in a critical apparatus.

A critical apparatus is a set of notes beside an edited text that records wording differences among copies. The Greek-text project Thesaurus Linguae Graecae credits Nestle Jr. with introducing these marks to show kinds of textual variant inside the text; its proposal illustrates ⸇ in a 1963 edition.

Here the dot signals the second interpolation in the sequence.

A specialist editorial sign in Greek New Testament textual scholarship.

It marks added wording; it does not say that wording is false.

Questions people ask

Why does ⸇ show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
