Akhi Yuri,
We're talking about direct quotes from the Peshitta by Mar Aphrahat, against both the OS manuscripts and the Greek. From the Gospels as well as from Paul's epistles.
You have not addressed how this can be possible in the 4th century - remember, the Peshitta is not supposed to have existed back then.
Readings that DISAGREE with Old Scratch, not just by missing proclitics or misspellings - but entire phrases are different, and different choices of words.
