I ask you all if you agree with H. C. Hoskier's comment regarding the word hHMAS in Revelation 5:9. He says the word hHMAS was lost in the transition from one column to the next. The left-hand column ends with TW QEW, "for God," and the right-hand column begins with EN TW AIMATI SOU, "with your blood." Check it out yourself at the following link:

In Revelation 5:9, Codex Alexandrinus (A), is the only Greek manuscript known to read HGORASAS TW QEW EN TW hAIMATI SOU. "purchased for God with your blood." This and the Ethiopic version are the only witnesses supporting the UBS4/NA27 text. Hoskier's exact words are "--HMAS A (perd. inter duas columnas)." (Most other Greek witnesses have hHMAS, "us," somewhere in some sequence in the verse; see below.)
I see no gaps in the writing, and no flaws in the material.
These are the variants, with the NA27 being the first one, and the method continues obviously:
