AENT Errors
#1
I know Luc was talking about starting a new thread detailing the AENT mistranslations and such. The AENT is a fine and scholarly volume, but like all translations of the Scriptures, it has it's own flaws. While a new update for Roth's AENT is coming out in December, I think it would be a good idea to continue working on finding errors that need to be fixed. Here are some to start off with.

He usually translates the Aramaic phrase for "New Covenant" as "Renewed Covenant", but shouldn't it be translated as "New Covenant"?

Matthew 10:38- 'And anyone that does not take up his staff and come and follow me is not worthy of me."

Again, just about every translation universally translates the word translated as "staff" as "cross" or "stake", including both Paul Younan and George Lamsa (both native speakers of Aramaic).

Matthew 13:27- 'And the servants approached the house of Master YHWH and said to him, "Behold, you did sow good seed in your field. From where are the tares in it?'"

Both the context and the Peshitta text show that the "master" was not YHWH.

Colossians 2:16- "Let no (pagan) therefore judge you about food and drink, or about the distinctions of festivals and new moons and Shabbats."

While Roth makes it clear that "pagan" is not in the Peshitta text, he should leave his interpretation out of the translation and leave it in the commentary, especially when the context contradicts Brother Roth's interpretation.

Ephesians 2:15- "And in his flesh (the) enmity and regulations of commands (contained) in his commandments are abolished (so) that in himself (an occurrence of the divine nature or qnoma), he might make the two into one, establishing peace."

Pretty much every other translation of the Peshitta says "...make the two into one new man..." (or something similar). I also think "(an occurrence of the divine nature or qnoma)" should be moved to the footnotes section.
