Past year I have been questioning the Primacy of the Septuagint and took an interest, through reading Brock, the Lamsa Bible since I only speak and read English. Is the Lamsa authentic? Say this with all respect and if anything shows my ignorance in these matters.
I want to read the Peshitta English but I believe Lamsa is the only one out there. Gorgias Press for the past couple of years have come out with the Antioch Bible which is the Syrian Peshitta in aramaic on the right side and idiomatic English on the left. The cost is very expensive being $100 per book and a book meaning one Gospel or one book from the Old Testament. I cannot afford that.
So I am back to George Lamsa and like to hear from everyone's experience on this matter.
Thank You all so much.
