Word play in aramaic and syriac

[Paul Younan]

Shlama,


that RABBULI is a problem is a red herring. the problem lay with the Greek, which can't decide how to render the term, thus the bazillion* variants there.


*i might have slightly exaggerated in the variant count.

That may very well be the case. I'm simply playing devils advocate and assuming Ishodad of Merv was correct in his assessment that this was a lazy copyist.
