Michael’s Testimonium is more authentic than Agapius’ Testimonium, and it is more authentic than the <i>textus receptus</i> in reading that Jesus was ‘thought to be the Messiah’. Some features of Agapius’ Testimonium previously considered to be more authentic than the <i>textus receptus</i> can be explained by distinctive readings in the Syriac text that Agapius used.
