It is cited from my larger work that includes the Greek and Latin texts of three such dialogues with translations and introductions.

The result for evangelicals is a leap into the upper story of "faith" and positing a divided field of knowledge that the Germans call "historie" versus "geschichte."

I comment on around 70 variant readings; mention the five times NA28 differs from NA27; note any special readings of the SBLGNT and NIV Greek text; and add an extended note advocating a "Majority Text" reading in 3:3, adapted from a published article.
