Bryennios Citing the Comma

Joseph Bryennios (Ιωσήφ Βρυέννιος) (1350-1432) wrote in Τόμος Β' / αξιώσει του Υψηλοτάτου και ευσεβεστάτου πρώην ηγεμόνος Μολδοβλαχίας Κυρίου Κυρίου Γρηγορίου Αλεξάνδρου Γκίκα Βοεβόδα δι' επιμελείας Ευγενίου διακόνου του Βουλγάρεως ήδη το πρώτον τύποις εκδοθέντα (Βρυέννιος, Ιωσήφ), Βούλγαρης, Ευγένιος. In which he cites the Johannine Comma:

Καὶ τὸ πνεῦμά ἐστι μαρτυροῦν, ὅτι ὁ Χριστός ἐστιν ἡ ἀλήθεια. ὅτι τρεῖς εἰσιν οἱ μαρτυροῦντες ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ, ὁ πατὴρ, ὁ λόγος, καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον· καὶ οὗτοι οἱ τρεῖς ἕν εἰσι· καὶ τρεῖς εἰσιν οἱ μαρτυροῦντες ἐν τῇ γῇ, τὸ πνεῦμα, τὸ ὕδωρ, καὶ τὸ αἷμα·^[1]

Translated as:

'And it is the Spirit which beareth witness, because Christ is truth. For there are three which bear witness in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one; and there are three which bear witness on earth, the .Spirit, the Water, and the Blood. If we receive, &c'

Comma Johanneum appears in the 15th century writings of Joseph Bryennios [1]

In the 1881 Cyclopaedia concerning the Epistles of John by William Wright, he wrote:

It will have been observed that these writers all omit the final clause of the 8th verse, contrary to the authority of all tire Greek manuscripts, and in this they were followed by the Complutensian editors, whose form of the verse we have not before noticed, as it does not appear whether they had any manuscript authority whatever for the clause, which, however, they inserted in their splendid Polyglott edition, begun in 1502 ,finished in 1517, but not published until 1522, wherein it appears in the following form ....
