Paul, AGR, Ewan, Valentin, Stephen, etc (all are in the acknowledgements part of the book) you know who you are, you have all helped and for that I am eternally grateful.

Hi Everyone,

Link: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com/publishing%20assistance.htm">http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com/publishi ... stance.htm</a><!-- m -->

As many of you know, I have been working on a book called Was the New Testament Really Written in Greek? It is finally available in hardcopy today, available print-on-demand from Lulu, the world's largest self-publisher. The book has been edited and converted to a standard book format by Ewan MacLeod and a proper cover has been designed by my graphic designer nephew, Stephen Meza.

Buy soft and hardcover copies at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://stores.lulu.com/AramaicPeshitta">http://stores.lulu.com/AramaicPeshitta</a><!-- m -->

This is not a for-profit venture. The book is intended to be a gift to any interested (online pdf version always will be FREE). Where does the money go? Any royalties received from the book and the website go towards running costs for the website and continual promotion of the Aramaic Peshitta.

Download the updated PDF version (free) here: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com/downloadbook.htm">http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com/downloadbook.htm</a><!-- m -->

There is now another cause:

Now we plan to publish for the mainstream, please assist us in achieving this. Funds required for this will approximate to $750. This will allow us to purchase a publishing package including marketing and promotion, professional editing/design, major listings, access to the Amazon and Borders markets, and more. I have put my money where my mouth is by chipping in the first $50. A friend of mine has chipped in another $50.

Surplus monies: In the event that donations exceed the needs of this book and website (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com">http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com</a><!-- m -->), the excess will go towards a charitable organisation currently being setup by myself and some colleagues. Using our knowledge of finance, our unlimited belief and never-say-die attitude, we are creating a non-profit organisation, the likes of which the world has never seen before. Both these projects are dear to my heart and the success and exposure of each will contribute to the success and exposure of the other.

If you are interested, please make a donation.

And as my birthday is coming up (next Friday)... This would probably be the best present anyone could give me right now.

Here is the link to donate: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com/publishing%20assistance.htm">http://www.aramaicpeshitta.com/publishi ... stance.htm</a><!-- m -->

Best Regards,
