Please, no more assertions about one Q text being 'earlier' or 'later' than
another. We can date mss, and we can date bits of texts. But many Q
compositions exist in multiple versions and are also composite. CD has 2
lengthy mss and several fragments; MMT is a dubiously reconstructed text
(say even its editors!) 'Earlier' and 'later' are not sensible words to
use.
