Shlama, akhay,
When I was going into Aramaic texts of the New Testament, I ran on one
important topic: Peshitta (22 books) and Peshitto (27 books). Until now I
was occupied by the Peshitta and knew almost nothing about Peshitto.
Well, there is very tiny difference between Peshitta and Peshitto texts.
Therefore, I think that the Peshitto is not translation from a Greek text but both
Peshitta and Peshitto originate from the same text. The question is Peshitta or Peshitto is closer to the original or maybe who is the original?
Next, what about 5 more books in the Peshitto. Are they the original, or translated from a Greek text or unknown? Are these 5 books deducted from Peshitta or
added to the Peshitto.
What about Crawford manuscript comparing to the Peshitto book of Revelation.
Which text is more credible?
And the question the those who abide in 22 books canon. What is Your relation
to the 27 books canon?do Your consider these 5 more books inspired Word of
God or something doubtful?
Maybe this topic was discussed before, then just redirect me.
Better if answers are supported by facts.
Thank You, brothers, for Your time and answers.
May Your answers be to many people.
God bless You.
