Hi Paul,
Could the Ayin and Yodh be confused in DSS script? and also in the Hebrew square script?
~And I honestly don't know if I was suggesting Greek primacy, but I actaully was suspecting Aramaic-to-Aramaic mistake / alteration -- suspecting the Greek could have got dikaios from a earlier Aramaic recension. But.. this covers it:
& Thank you for the rshey^a and reshaya examples.
At this point, I have to admit, the Greek is just wrong here. Thanks everyone for this discussion. Romans 5:7, tell you the truth, was starting to really bother me.
But, there is another passage in the Peshitta which bothers me. Something doesn't seem right in it. I'll post later.

Paul Younan Wrote:The Aramaic still makes the most sense, the Greek makes no sense at all. It makes sense in 5:6, it makes sense in 5:8, just makes no sense at all in 5:7.In any case, again there is no way for us to know how the Greek translator made the mistake, but we can be sure that it indeed was a mistake.If any of us, or none of us, are correct in how it happened - the Aramaic still is the only version that makes any sense.
