(a) ὡς or ὥσπερ ? It is highly possible that the scribe of א and B mistaken ΠEΡ in ΩCΠΕΡ for ΠHΡ. Codex Washingtonensis, which for this verse is of the same text type as א and B, reads ὥσπερ instead of ὡς. Look at the similarity between ΠEΡ and ΠHΡ in Codex Washingtonensis. See also Codex E.

This error seems to have arisen while the copyist was holding a sequence of letters (ΩCΠΕΡOΠHΡ) in his somewhat treacherous memory between the glance at the manuscript to be copied and the writing down (ΩCOΠHΡ) of what he saw there.

(b) ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς – Codices Vaticanus, Sinaiticus, Washingtonianus, and Family 1 have οὐράνιος. Tischendorf quotes the Peshitta to support οὐρανοῖς, but G.H. Williams doubts the evidence for οὐρανοῖς. Τὸν ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς in Matt 5:16, and ὁ οὐράνιος in Matt 6:14, are each rendered by ܕ݁ܒ݂ܰܫܡܰܝܳܐ ; in neither place is there any variation in the Greek.
