Hi George
On your comment: "I can, however, note that the title page notes that
he uses the W & H text so that if you have W & H you effectively have
Holmes."
That's no more true than of any modern post-WH edition of the GNT
compared against WH. Of the nearly 7000 variation units, 879 of them
disagree with WH.
As the introduction details, the process started with four editions of
the Greek text (WH, Treg, NIV and RP), the points of difference
between these editions were how the initial variation units were
compiled. The points of agreement were reviewed as well.
I can safely and assuredly say that the SBLGNT is not simply a
slightly-modified WH.
