I have most of the message from the down clues and the new order but is there a misprinted extra letter in 9d?

I think it's the S from Say .......then the clue would imply an "A" (ay) inside the tin giving the required tribute??
S seems to work in my 2 sentences from the extra letters....

Thanks kirky, I have S as extra letter too but doesn't that give I (ay) in CAN? And the extra S doesn't seem to tie in with the message but does with the re-ordered message!

I’m muddled. I have completed the grid, but cannot parse 5d to help me on my way.
5d. attractive girl’s lover entertaining a very pious Jew.
I have the answer BUT ...
Help please....

Muraría, the start of the the first message should begin (8,2), rather than (4,5), as should become clear when you’ve completed the highlighting

Jogamel, in 5d the extra letter begins the third word. That should help you parse it

What a brilliant puzzle.

I spent way longer than I should have searching for the name of a particular woman from a story in the Bible - still, leaned something new so, every cloud ...😃

Big thanks to the ever reliable Vismut.

Help with endgame please.
I don't quite understand part of the last sentence:
" - another supporter of 6, who then appears, minus a sign - "

Does the pronoun refer to the supporter or to 6?

Also, a minor quibble, shouldn't it be 16 cells rather than 16 letters for the highlighting ?
