Dear Publishers and teachers,

 

I hope you note Kate's comment:

>I am a self study student and a former homeschool mom, I always apreciate

please just stick to it!
... 
I use Strong's dictionary as my final decision, because it's CONSISTENT. >

They will not like the Westcott and Hort text with

sa-ma-REE-tace [or sa-ma-ri-tes in Spanish transliteration system]
(See my comment on Machen and Mounce in my previous post.)
Simple and consistent.

Be well
