1 Corinthians Aramaic primacy doubted...
#11
** BUMP**

Ok, I doubt Aramaic primacy for 1 Cor. but...now I doubt even my doubt <!-- sWink --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/wink1.gif" alt="Wink" title="Wink" /><!-- sWink -->

1 Corinthians 1:23 Wrote:[Nestle-Aland and Westcott-Hort ("Alexandrian")]: but we preach Christ crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Gentiles (ethnesin)

[Byzantine texts]: but we preach Christ crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks (hellesin)

What?!?

Notice how the Byzantine tradition has 'Greeks' (hellesin) for 1 Cor. 1:22-24 and 10:32 BUT 'Alexandrian' text has the odd 'Gentiles' (ethnesin) discrepancy for verse 23.

Is this significant?

...and distazo:

The Aramaic for 'Aramean' and 'Gentile' is the same except the little symbols above the letters -- and are those 'Syame markings'?? -- And if they are Syame markings, that means they were not present in the earliest Peshitta texts, right?
