What is Peshitta
#4
I like to call them The Aramaic Holy Scriptures, or, The Aramaic Holy Bible. Both the Old and New Testaments were given to the Aramaic speaking People, and they have read them in their Churches since the 1st century when they were established by the Apostles.

These ancient Holy Scriptures in Aramaic were later (9th century) referred to as "The Peshitta" (Straight, True), to distinguish them from other versions in the Aramaic language which were not, that were produced in later centuries by the Syrian Orthodox and Jacobite sects.
