Word play in aramaic and syriac

SteveCaruso Wrote:In any case, /rabbouli/ is a perfectly fine Syriac word, which many historians and lexicographers have simply equated with /rabboni/. It just does not occur anywhere in any contemporary Aramaic to Jesus or Mary (in any dialect) which is what makes it problematic here.

Mar Ishodad of Merv agrees with your assessment. However, the corpi we have of the Dialect of Jesus or Mary is extremely limited. Could you at least acknowledge the possibility that it may have existed in their dialect, but is simply not attested to in any extant manuscript?

The fact that the Sinai Syriac palimpset has "Rabbuli" for Mark 10:51 is interesting. I haven't done a thorough search, but there may be other instances. In your viewpoint, the Peshitta is a revision of the Old Syriac. If so, then why did the Peshitta correct "Rabbuli" in the OS Mark 10:51, but not in this case?

In any case, I'm unconvinced either way. As I said, the root and the gloss is correct. That's the important part. It could, like Ishodad said, be the result of a "careless scribe." But then again, we have OS Mark 10:51. How many careless scribes were there ?
