Dear Paul:

Words cannot adequately express how valuable your Interlinear Translation of the Aramaic New Testament is for advancing everyone's understanding of the Peshitta while demonstrating its beautiful simplicity and completeness and exposing the faultiness of the Greek New Testament manuscripts. The Greek lovers will always try to logically explain their dogmatic defense of the Greek manuscripts, but when your complete Aramaic Interlinear Translation of the New Testament is put next to any Greek interlinear, only fools will try to defend the Greek.

With your Interlinear New Testament, even those of us who only know a little Aramaic can demonstrate the flaws and obvious mis-translations in the Greek text. Lamsa translated the Aramaic scriptures into English to the best of his ability, but I think he was unable to convince a single Greek scholar because they could not understand the Aramaic underpinning. What you are doing is at a much higher level of scholarly effort. I predict that your Interlinear New Testament will eventually win not only a battle but also the war in demonstrating the true significance and primacy of the Peshitta.

In every time-consuming difficult project, there is a time for growing weary and wondering whether it is worth continuing. Please be assured that your work is extremely valuable and very much appreciated by us all. I predict that eventually your Interlinear New Testament will be the gold standard by which all other New Testament versions will be judged and interpreted. Please be encouraged!

God bless you for what you are doing.

Sincerely,

Otto
