book of Hebrews: better from Greek, or Aramaic?
There is a difference between the following:
mra = Lord/sir
m-r-n = our Lord
m-r-i = my Lord
mrkun = your Lord
mrihun = their lords
MrYa = Master YHWH
kurios = lord/sir, or Lord. Sometimes, 'kurios' is used to render the Aramaic MrYa.

Information was many times lost in the translation from Aramaic to Greek, when m-r-n = our Lord and m-r-i = my Lord (and MrYa = Master YHWH) became rendered in Greek as simply 'kurios'/Lord. E.g., doing a search in the APNT
https://aramaicdb.lightofword.org/en-us/...ord-search
for 'our lord' yields 308 results. On the 1st 2 pages of results, none of the instances of 'our Lord' in Aramaic got rendered in Greek as 'our Lord.'

Did Mt 8:25 originally have:
"our Lord"?
or merely "Lord"?

Both the Peshitta and the by-A.D. 175 Diatessaron have "our Lord."

Diatessaron, Section XI
http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/te...saron.html
[~34] But Jesus was sleeping on a cushion in the stern of the ship; and his disciples came and awoke him, and said unto him, Our Lord, save us; lo, we perish.

Matthew 8:25

(Etheridge) And the disciples approached him, that they might awake him, saying to him, Our Lord, deliver us, we are perishing !
(Murdock) and his disciples came to awake him, and said to him: Our Lord, deliver us; we are perishing!
(KJV) And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.

Matthew 8:25 - Zijn discipelen kwamen bij Hem, en maakten Hem wakker, en zeiden: “Onze Heer, red ons, wij vergaan!”
Onze Heer - dit is de lezing van de Aramese Peshitta. De lezing van de Griekse NA28, MHT en TR luidt: ‘Heer’.

Google translate:
Matthew 8:25 - His disciples came to Him and woke Him, saying, "Our Lord, save us, we perish!"
        Our Lord - this is the reading of the Aramean Peshitta. The reading of the Greek NA28, MHT and TR reads: "Lord".
