Well, I would think icon writers (technically icons are "written," not drawn or painted) would
be careful about the text. After all, they are not creating anything "new," but are transmitting
a holy tradition. Hence my question re: whether icon texts are considered in textual
criticism. But I don't want this discussion to drift away from B-Greek rules, so if it's drifting
there, feel free to email me offlist.
