Romans 1:17 query
#57
Quote:Dave,

The problem with your assumption is that you are using the mess of Greek variants, what you call the "Western Text", prior to the time THEY (the Greeks) standardized it based on the Peshitta.

Ok, let's talk about assumptions some.

Assumption #1: The greek standarized text had to have been translated from the syriac standardized text.

Wrong. For all we know, the original could have been Hebrew that the greek was translated from. There is no way to "definitively" know that the greek was translated from syriac since hebrew, aramaic, syriac, and other semitic languages share similar structures.

Quote:And none of these languages are what the Message was preached in, anyways.

Assumption #2: Syriac was the language that Jesus spoke so these are the original texts.

Wrong. No one knows with any certainty what language or languages The Lord spoke. It's all guess work. But syriac is none-the-less promoted as the language that Jesus spoke and this is used deceptively to justify the syriac scriptures as being the language of The Lord to the naive and uninitated.
