Barshuma? - Burning one - 08-03-2009
Shlama,
in Acts 13:6 the Peshitta contains the reading of a name as:
[font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]0mw4rb[/font]
this is somewhat different than how the Greek reads with Bar-iesus. how did we get from Barshuma to Bar-iesus? <!-- s:dontgetit: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/dontgetit.gif" alt=":dontgetit:" title="Dont Get It" /><!-- s:dontgetit: -->
is the answer a simple misreading of [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]0mw4[/font] wrongly as [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)](w4y[/font]?
any clarification would be appreciated. <!-- s
