Thanks for the video Paul!
Do you believe that there was one translation of the Peshitta into Greek? It would certainly be interesting if they found an "Old Greek" New Testament! <!-- shocked: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/shocked.gif" alt="hocked:" title="Shocked" /><!-- shocked: -->
I was reading that the Alexandrian has rougher Greek, Byzantine smoother, and that the Western text-type is fond of paraphrasing. I can't read Greek (or Aramaic sadly), so I can't see exactly how different the exact words are in the various text types.
