How do you explain Jesus’ own words:

“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” Matthew 28:19 KJV

Excellent question.

In ~311 CE Eusebius (265-339) Bishop of Caesarea
In his _Proof of the Gospel_
in Book three chapter seven states

Go, and make disciples of all the nations in My Name, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you,” [[Matt. xxviii. 19.]]

Apparently Matthew 28:19 was changed
after Eusebius wrote his Proof of the Gospel.

Eusebius's citation is the oldest citation of the verse.

Shabbat Shalom
