Thanks Judge
Reason I ask is because very often I read that the Diatessaron is the 'earliest gospel' and the 'earliest life of Christ. Hence I wondered if the early bibles contained the Diatessaron instead of the 4 gospels separately.
As we know, the Pshitta does not contain the adultery story in John/Yohanan. Paul wrote a good article on the Diatessaron's Pshitta pedigree which seems to make good sense, but tell me, does the Diatessaron also omit this narrative too?
