Hi Mike,
I have my on view on this subject.
As much as I know there was death penalty for copying New
Testament Peshitta. So, the copying was made in secret and
looks like there was no control over the copyists. Therefor all COE
Manuscripts are identical. So, the prince of this world decided to destroy
the COE physically. Look at the persecutions of the Assyrians.
On the other side the Chaldean Roman Catholic Churches were flourishing
with the Roman Catholic Church. Emperor Constantine was controlling the text
e.g. In the western world we have big mess in a lot of contradicting manuscripts.
I believe it was done purposely to discredit Christianity. The Rome has been always flourishing
and their Christians were protected. The Rome is loved by this world.
I believe that COE transmission of the text is the only reliable.
