Hi Folks,

On this verse the textual difference is a little mark where the NKJV follows the W-H text creating an error.

Hebrews 3:16
King James Bible
For some, when they had heard, did provoke:
howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.


NKJV
For who, having heard, rebelled?
Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses?

This variance from the Received Text has been confirmed. Generally I have found NKJV weaknesses to be in translation (also the footnotes that draw attention to abject corruptions in the alexandrian text). Not in varying from the TR. to the alexandrian text.

Shalom,
Steven
