Shlama Akhi Addai,
Codex Phillipps is a western text (Peshitto) from the Roman empire and specifically from within Rabbula's realm in Edessa. I would expect it to be a revisionary text in between the Peshitta and Rabbula's "Evangellion de Mepharreshe" (Old Scratch).
When we speak of Peshitta here, we normally associate it with the eastern (Persian) text used by the Church of the East which has had no revisionary history behind it.
