John 4:25 - judge - 04-20-2011

I dont remember seeing this discussed before but John 4:25

Greek NT....25 The woman said, ?I know that Messiah? (called Christ) ?is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.?

Peshitta....I know the messiah is coming.....

This is much the same as John 1:41
the peshitta, naturally, just has the messiah.
The greek has the "messiah" (a transliteration of the aramaic) and then "christos" in greek as an added explanation.

Here is the greek of John 1:41

41 The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, ?We have found the Messiah? (that is, the Christ).
