The two lines that coincide with the canon's French were tested specifically: 2:2/2:9 'at its rising' (BDAG ἀνατολή 1 cites both verses; NAB 1970, NRSV, ESV) and 26:53 'put at my disposal' (BDAG παρίστημι 1a cites the verse; NASB identical wording).

Its ten founder-preference points are answered in founderDecisionRecommendations, and its follow-ups (17:21; 17:22; comma/colon in 25 and 28; the 6:13 'testing' wording in central) are endorsed as later-pass items.","founderDecisionRecommendations":{"1-angelos-angel":"Endorse. ἄγγελος is the technical term for a heavenly envoy in first-century Jewish Greek (BDAG s.v. 2); published Mt 1, 13, 25, 28, Acts 12 and the Revelation wave all print 'angel', so the Greek NT is already harmonized in practice. Promote jointly with Revelation as a central Greek-NT convention; keep 'messenger of YHWH' for Hebrew malʾāḵ.","2-naos-sanctuary":"Endorse for Matthew. The naos/hieron distinction is lexical (BDAG; Josephus) and NRSV marks it in 23:16-35. 27:5 keeps Matthew's crux honestly (and, to my reading, restores the ASV's own 'sanctuary'). If promoted, scope it to books with both terms; Revelation's 'temple' for ναός is defensible because it has no ἱερόν.","3-23:14-no-paragraph":"Endorse. SBLGNT has no 23:14; the Byzantine text is quoted in full at 23:13 with witnesses, as the 6:13b precedent and the Revelation ruling C require. Recommend a later pass bring the stable 17:21 into line: its bracketed Greek is not SBLGNT text, so drop the paragraph and move the Byzantine wording into the 17:20 commentary.","4-colon-convention":"Endorse (punctuation only; applied without exception in the wave). Harmonize published 25 and 28 in a later pass.","5-magi":"Endorse. 'magi' is the standard scholarly rendering (BDAG; Brown; Powell) and NIV/NAB usage; 'wise men' is noted.","6-faithfulness-23:23":"Endorse. BDAG lists Mt 23:23 under πίστις 1a 'faithfulness, reliability'; NIV and ESV render so; the Mic 6:8 triad is conduct.","7-put-at-my-disposal-26:53":"Endorse. BDAG παρίστημι 1a cites this verse for 'put at someone's disposal', and the NASB prints exactly 'put at My disposal'; the ground is independent of the canon's French, and the coincidence is disclosed.","8-at-its-rising-2:2,9":"Endorse. BDAG ἀνατολή 1 cites both verses; NAB (1970, before TBWTT) and NRSV read 'at its rising', ESV 'when it rose'. Correct the RSV attribution (the RSV reads 'in the East').","9-defiles-a-person":"Endorse. The article with ἄνθρωπος is generic; the canon's own French « l'homme » is generic too, so the line follows the sense the canon intends rather than the English edition's 'the man'.","10-tempted-4:1":"Endorse. Agent-driven 'tempted'/'the tempter' is BDAG's and the versions' reading with the devil as agent, and agrees with published 6:13; the test reading (Gerhardsson; canon « mis à l'épreuve ») is properly in commentary.
