Acts 19:24-35 - Kawless - 09-28-2010
Murdock chose to use the name Diana.
Etheridge used Artemis.
Younan's work appears to stop at Acts 15.
All the English Reformation-era bibles used Diana.
Modern bibles by far use Artemis.
What does the Peshitta truly say?

Artemis <!-- s:biggrin: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/biggrin.gif" alt=":biggrin:" title="Big Grin" /><!-- s:biggrin: -->
But it must also be said that the Greek versions also contain a form of Artemis

This process of substitution is not uncommon within LXX and Greek Apostolic writings when compared to their Hebrew/Aramaic counterparts.
Here's a few words describing what I mean:
- Aram Naharayim/Beith Nahrin => Mesopotamia (Strong's H763; Strong's G3318; SEDRA3 1:383)
- Mitzrayim/Misrayin => Egypt (Strong's H4714; Strong's G125; SEDRA3 1:1830)
- Akko/Akku => Ptolemais (Strong's H5910; Strong's G4424; SEDRA3 1:2312)
- Y'wani/Yaunaya => Hellenist (Strong's H3125; Strong's G1675; SEDRA3 1:1342)
