"Gladly," the reading of the T. R., is rejected on ample evidence by the critics as not found in the oldest and best authorities. Nearly the same authorities concur in omitting "and," between "the fellowship" and "the breaking of bread" (vs. 42). This serves to strengthen the view that "the fellowship" goes with "the teaching of the apostles," though put as two objects instead of being combined by a single article in one idea.
