Does anyone know what the exact difference is in this verse from the textus receptus?
I'd be very interested to know exactly what they changed.
Then I can think about why in the world would they want to alter it.

Shlama,
the change was from the otherwise universal reading of "upholding" (pheron in Greek) to "revealing" (phaneron in Greek). a two letter difference (insertion of alpha and nu) makes all the difference.
from what i can tell, there isn't any strong Aramaic basis to explain this variant. although a very slim chance, i suppose, could exist in the fact that the Peshitta's use of the root 'khad basically means "to hold onto," but if inflected properly, can also mean to "set fire to / kindle" something. the Greek term phaneron can mean "shine" / "light" (as in to make known) -- which allows a very slim possibility for explanation, but none that i would say is of any real merit.
i'd stick with the thought that a scribe was using his "lying pen" that day....
Chayim b'Moshiach,
Jeremy

Shlama Khulkon:
There is an article on this which gives a little more clarity and also raises more questions.
