Debunking another Trimmism

[abudar2000]

Thanks Yuri!

I've actually started to make use of the manuscript in my research!

shlomo Yuri,

Thank You!

Does "cal1." indicate which OS is Sinatic and which OS is Cureton?

poosh bashlomo,
keefa-moroon

CAL database has all the available text of the Curetonian manuscript (as well as of the Sinaitic manuscript). It just takes a while to learn to navigate this database...

Best,

Yuri.

Shlomo, keefa-moroon,

Here's how to use the CAL database, in order to access the texts of the Old Syriac gospels.

You begin with the "Text Browse" screen,

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://cal1.cn.huc.edu/text_browse.html">http://cal1.cn.huc.edu/text_browse.html</a><!-- m -->

Select "Syriac", and then click on "submit".

Click on "60040 OS Mt".

Now you should be seeing a window with numbers starting from 100. First chapter of the Cureton manuscript is 101, second chapter is 102, etc. Last available chapter of the Cureton manuscript is 123. Then, further down in the same window begins the Sinaitic manuscript with the number 201 (first chapter). The last available chapter of the Sinaitic manuscript is 228.

For Mark, only the Sinaitic manuscript survives.

For Luke, you have the same system as for Matthew.

For John, all of the available texts are in two long files. The first is the Curetonian, and the second Sinaitic.

All the best,

Yuri.

PS. It may take me a couple of days to address the questions of Paul and Judge about the Pusey/Gwilliam edition of the Peshitta. I'll need to make a trip to the library and double-check some refs.
