‏ Philippians 3:16

 By that same rule let us walk ( τω αυτω στοιχειν ) Aleph A B do not have  κανον (rule). Besides  στοιχειν is the absolute present active infinitive which sometimes occurs instead of the principal verb as in Ro 12:15. Paul means simply this that, having come thus far, the thing to do is to go "in the same path" ( τω αυτω ) in which we have been travelling so far. A needed lesson for Christians weary with the monotony of routine in religious life and work.
