Matthew 3:17 - Jerry - 09-12-2010

... This is my beloved Son, with whom I am pleased. - Common translation

Sometimes I encounter verses such as that which appear to be off base from the source text.

... honaw bery chabiy:bah d:beh ets:t:biyth - Syriac source text
... Such-is-this my-son the-beloved, of-in-him I-be-wanted.

Kind of a minor thing, but it paints a different way of looking at the verse.
