The "v.l." stands for variant reading (Latin "varia lectio"),
meaning that a manuscript has the word but the critical text
does not. Although the apparatus for UBS GNT4 does not list
the variant, it is found in the NA27 apparatus. Specifically,
the famous manuscript Codex Sinaiticus (Aleph or 01) has the
word KALOKAGAQIAS instead of KAKOPAQIAS.
