To see a prophet?" : S* Bc W 892 cop(north) : ASV RSV NASV : The textual problem is one of word order. The same Greek word can be translated either "what" or "why." Thus the reading of the UBS text can be translated either as found in the text or as found in the notes, depending on how one punctuates the sentence. But the reading in the notes must be translated as found in the notes. It may be that the reading in the text was changed to remove the ambiguity found in it. On the other hand, it may be that the reading in the notes was original and it was changed (1) to give the question the same kind of ambiguity as the questions in verses 7 and 8, which also may be translated two different ways, or (2) to make the verse read the same as Luke 7:26.
