I still think the Church of the East should release an official Eastern Peshitta Bible translation with the Western Five from Peshitto, along with an official Interlinear.
Yeah, something comparable to the Orthodox Study bible like Paul mentioned would be a good asset to the community. The Peshitta is their Bible, so they should translate it and publish it IMO.
