ACTS 2:42 HSAN DE PROSKARTEROUNTES THi DIDACHi TWN APOSTOLWN KAI THi  
KOINWNIAi [KAI]  THi KLASEI TOU ARTOU KAI TAIS PROSEUCAIS.

Barrett (Acts ICC) suggests that the inclusion of KAI between THi  
KOINWNIAi and THi KLASEI was intended to disambiguate the  
identification of four separate items in the list by making the  
separation between THi KOINWNIAi and THi KLASEI explicit. The  
reading  KAI THi KOINWNIAi, THi KLASEI would be more difficult.

The correction of Sinaiticus to include KAI is interesting. Does  
Sinaiticus often get corrected in the direction of of Byzantine text?
