In so far as this logion never appears, to my knowledge, separated from the Matthean logion, properly speaking it cannot be considered as an independent agraphon; it is a complement to a canonical Dominical saying.

page 265 note 2 Ign. Eph. v, 2, ε⋯ γ⋯ρ ⋯νòς κα⋯ δευτ⋯ρoυ πρoσευχ⋯ τoσα⋯την ἰσχὺν έχει can in no way be considered as the earliest occurrence. As the Committee of the Oxford Society of Historical Theology noted in The New Testament in the Apostolic Fathers (Oxford, 1905, p. 77), ‘here Ignatius's ⋯νòς κα⋯ δευτ⋯ρoυ = δυoῑν’. In Ignatius we are concerned with an echo of Matt, xviii. 19, the parallel of which in the Gospel of Thomas is to be found in Log. 48, not in Log. 30.
