The Age of the Peshitta

It is certainly not a translation of Greek version of Jewish Wars Book Six.

There are considerable differences between Jewish Wars Six in Codex Ambrosianus and Greek version of Jewish Wars Book Six.

There are considerable differences between all manuscripts, especially between the Greek, the Slavonic, the Hebrew, and the Syriac.

Given that the Syriac uses such late Syriac forms, its likelihood of being the original is nil. Josephus would not have written in Post-Classical Syriac (nor would he have written in Classical or Old Syriac for that matter either; in his day Syriac was not a "Jewish language," it was the language of a few odd converts). Writing in Aramaic, he probably would have used a formalized, contemporary dialect. As a result, no trained Syriacist who has studied it in detail since its discovery endorses an earlier date for it than the 11th or 12th century.
