Does it matter if Aramaic Primacy is wrong?

[Spyridon]

While I hold to Aramaic primacy, I don't believe it matters too much whether it is wrong. If the Peshitta is not the original New Testament, then at least it would be the oldest translation, probably made at the same time that the Greek original was first distributed. Furthermore, it provides a valuable resource for understanding the original words of Jesus, and the mindset of the first Semitic Christians, since it's in the language that they spoke.
