Peshitta what good is it?

Just refer to the Eastern vs the Western Peshitta traditions. Like everyone else does.

I'm being honest and straightforward about it, Steve.

You know the history of the UBS hybrid text. It is not a manuscript, or the pure text, as David Bauscher tries to sell it as, and in its present online form is not at all an accurate portrayal of the Aramaic NT.

You are not being honest if you don't tell the truth about it, Steve. The UBS is not even representative of "The Western Peshitta" traditions, as you put it...it is a patchwork of various Western manuscripts, and some of the editors choices to add in some Greek only material, such as the P.A. and a few other verses not found in any Eastern or Western, manuscripts.

The UBS should never be considered a true representative of The Peshitta.

And you, Steve, should know that.

If you want a hybrid Aramaic/Greek NT, then the UBS will do for that kind of work. But, it will not be a true Peshitta document or translation.


Steve, I don't own a Kilt...thank God, and if I did, I wouldn't take it off at your request. Smile
