Hi all
I'm new here, and I have some questions. I hope someone could help me with them:
1-What is the difference between Aramaic, Hebrew and Syriac languages? How close are they from each other?
2-What is the Syriac Peshitta?
3-I heard about a Khabouris codex. How old is this, and do we have its full version?
4-What is the oldest codex we have for the Peshitta?
5-I could find Aramaic Targums here:
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://cal1.cn.huc.edu/get_a_chapter?file=51001&sub=02&cset=H">http://cal1.cn.huc.edu/get_a_chapter?fi ... =02&cset=H</a><!-- m -->
So why are the letters different from the ones on this site?
6-I am learning Hebrew, so is it easy to learn Aramaic given the knowledge of Hebrew language?
7-Which parts of the New Testament do you believe were originally written in Aramaic?
Sorry for the long questions and please forgive my ignorance.
Thanks
