Glenn David Bauscher is working on translating the Old Testament from the Peshitta. He's translated the Torah, Psalms, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes.
Do you know much about the Bible used by CoE? Can you briefly mention the difference between the Protestant and the CoE Old Testament (such as number of books and their order)? As far as I know, the order of Psalm is different between LXX and MT. There is also an extra psalm in Orthodox LXX.
Honestly, I want the translators to retain the order of books as they appear in an ancient manuscript.
