Best Peshitta evidence?
#3
Shlama Andrej,

1. I vote for Mattai 1,17 (gawra). With Peshitta primacy assumed, now it is possible that the former tax collector can actually count.

It works for me, like in science, one theory is better than the other if it can explain more "problematic phenomena".

2. It is very natural that shlichim would write in their native language first, not in a foreign one. My view, but that is not necessarily a very convincing argument for others.

Which brings me to asking you - what would you consider as evidence? What are the rules of engagement and accepted arguments for deciding about one thing against another ? For different people, I think different examples will be appealing. It depends on what is the methodology (e.g. should it be purely linguistic?) and most importantly what is the "pain", which when solved would make you accept this or that view?

I'm sure you have your own opinion and examples/evidence - can you share it?

With peace and blessings,
Jerzy
