The Age of the Peshitta

[Thirdwoe]

Akhi Stephen wrote:

Hence we have the testimony of the Assyrian Church of the East receiving at least the Gospel accounts of the Peshitta around 52-53 A.D., sometime before the first Greek New Testament fragments were found. The devil is in the details and I will stand corrected if shown to be wrong on any point.

Brother Stephen, where can we substantiate this statement? I haven't heard of it being given to the Church of the East that early, only the witness saying that the date of 78 A.D. is found in the colophon of the Gospels, which was seen on the altar of a Church of the East parish in Baghdad showing that date, as mentioned by Assamani, in his Bibliotecha.

Do you know if the Younan Codex is still in the exhibit in Florida?

Also, I have learned recently where The Khabouris Codex can be seen currently, if you are interested in knowing where to see it on display in a public exhibit.

Here is a new picture of it, showing it on display.
