I took some time to look through the new articles that Chris posted. What is standing out in front of me in freaking bold letters is this:
THE GREEK SUCKS AND IF YOU ARE PART OF THAT CROWD YOU SUCK, NEENOR NEENOR (/HUGS HIS PESHITTA)!
Attitude and pride.
James Trimm got "seriousely" brandished by a big religious corporation (I think you can still access the review on the net) in a review of his new testament when he first published it. All because,.......attitude and pride. It got changed shortly thereafter by him, hmmm, I wonder why.
If you want people to take you serious about your work, I mean if you truley desire to publish such articles and improve the insight of GOD's word through the Peshitta, then knock off the attitude you have against others who see truths you don't yet. GOD is not limited to one language, and if you think that HE is, your not reborn yet.
Do anyone of you truely think that the peshitta is without fault, that it got every single word correct and was passed down to us intact lacking nothing, not a single mistake in any book? If you do, you lack the Spirit of Truth within you to show you the difference. I love how it brings across the word in a majestic appeal, and corrects where the Greek got it wrong, but I'm not oblivious to faults that are within it, nor am I strickly for the Greek and its faults either.
Someone posted about how everyone should be "united" and "slay the Egyptian dragon" that reared its head in the NIV and others. Well, your not gonna get anywhere, nor garner any support from outsiders that come across this site looking for truth, with this attitude up front.
If you really desire to have the Peshitta upheld in a higher position by future scholars than it currectly is, then edit out the argumentive "Peshitta vs Greek" statements within those articles.
If you don't think about presentation to others, then you will lose, and your not gonna get any blessing from The Lord over your work with the pride as prevailent in it, as it is. Without His blessing over it, it will die.
Now I'm sure Chris and others will be quite peeved over my assessment here, but this is truth, and many hate its "dividing asunder" ability. If you truely desire to win and have others "enjoy" your articles, then make them show truth instead of just prove a point, or put others down.
Most of the time I would be apologetic to others if I was too harsh in my approach, this is one time I can't actually apologise for that. It's harsh cause those articles are harsh.
Now flame if you desire, or take some time to understand what I see, either or.
