Manuscript order of the Peshitta OT and NT
#1
Hello everyone,

the Greek scriptures present us with a large variance on the order of the different writings, both in the OT and the NT. recently I came across some claims that the Peshitta's manuscripts usually present themselves as Gospels, Acts, Catholics, Paulines, Revelation. Is this true, or made up, and is it consistent in the different traditions and manuscripts, or simply something that sometimes happens?

Also, "armenianbible.org" claims that "the Apocrypha was not translated, only "the 22 Books" of the Old Testament, as Moses of Khorene informs us. This was due to the influence of the Peshitta Old Testament." Is this correct, and can someone give some more details on the development of the Peshitta OT? Also, what book order is represented in the manuscripts?

Essentially, what i'd love most dearly is a book order from Genesis to the last book of the NT, and how prevalent it is among the extant evidence.

Thanks in advance

May the God of Peace bless you in His Grace.
Jesus is the one true God of the Bible.
