Hi !
Writing from France, I would like to ask you :
The Peshitta electronic version in PDF files you're giving on your website is excellent, and very useful.
Could you tell us from which edition it is selectef from ? Lamsa ? Cureton ?
What manuscript are behind ?
I'm asking you this question, because I believe there is quite a difference between the Pshytta version before Raboula and after. The only full manuscript of the four gospels existing before the work of Raboula is the Vat Sir 12 (in Vatican Library).
