Acts 16:7

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

And when for after, A.V. and T.R.; come over against ( κατὰ) for come to, A.V.; and the Spirit of Jesus for but the Spirit, A.V. and T.R. But the phrase, "the Spirit of Jesus," occurs nowhere in the New Testament, and is on that account very improbable here, though there is considerable manuscript authority for it.

It is accepted by Meyer dud Alford and Wordsworth, following Griesbach, Lachmann, Tischendorf, etc.
