Man, this guy was right on!
If you compare the preciseness of the CoE copies of the Peshitta over the centuries, you will find that they are the best preserved manuscripts as far as consistency in reading.
The Western texts (SOC) are totally sloppy in comparison.
And he's definitely right about the "Nestorians" paying absolutely no attention to the Greek NT - why the hell would they?
Why would anyone who knows the English language study Shakespeare in Chinese translation? How much sense does THAT make?
