Question for Andrew Roth
#17
Dear Andrew,

Wow. Your comments are very clear and helpful. I think I am beginning to understand what is going on with the various texts. What you have done in your book is a great service to us all.

As I suspected, the so-called 1905 (which is actually 1905 + 1920) is neither Eastern or Western but the result of editing and compiling of various Aramaic documents by academic scholars including Gwilliam, Pinkerton, and Gwynn. Reading the Preface of the 1920 edition literally, it does not say that the Crawford Revelation was used exactly, but rather that it was a version of Revelation prepared by John Gwynn based on the Crawford Manusciript. The remarkable result is a 1920 BFBS text that is now the UBS text that has apparenlty been accepted by the SOC as the official Western Peshitto version.

Thanks for all your insightful comments.

Sincerely,

Otto
