Most assume the N.T. was penned originally in greek. However, Aramaic primacy can easily be established and has an amazing history. A detailed study of the Peshitta and it's history is worth the time. And Rev 21:6 cleary states "Aleph-Tav". I agree we should not fit our interpretations in to scripture. The Peshitta is scripture. | ||||||

AMO14 - Dear Forum contributor, please look kindly upon my candor, but I fail to see in your concluding remark, i.e., "The Peshitta is Scripture" a valid summation of the points you have attempted to make in your preamble to it, whatever your preamble may be intended to mean and whatever service it may be intended to render to the readers of Study Bible Forum. On the contrary, I cannot help but view them as a series of quantum leaps into the speculative and esoteric at the very best and your summary statment as a non sequitur par excellence. Being keenly aware of my own pitiful shortcomings in ineptness, and blatant ignorance of, the events surrounding the early years in which the New Testament Canon and its textual bases were being formed and finally established (and for centures accepted by orthodoxy), I submit that I may not be entirely alone in my imperfect understanding of such weighty matters. Among what I've managed to garner from various resources on the subject thus far hag been a proclivity for questioning the credentials of others who may claim a more excellent knowledge than I but who are unable to produce much convicing proof in favor of the merits of their position. There are few places, if indeed any at all, reserved on this Forum for the expostion of any view that is not or cannot be solidly founded upon God's written message to man that appears wholly within within the pages of the Holy Bible, which we identify as being and understand and affirm to be the canocial 66 books of the Bible and no other. Inasmuch as this is a Bible Study Forum and nothing else -- nothing less and nothing more -- we restrict the scope and aim of this Forum to abide within the paramaters embraced by the concept contained in the doctrine of sola scriptura. The remrks are not intended to discourage you but on the contrary to challenge you to enter into the spirit and purpose of this Forum in such a way as to benefit your readers and bring glory to God who alone is worthy of our devotion and praise. --Hank | ||||||
