Are those in Syria today also Assyrian/Syrian?
In any case, at the time, it is teh same apparently, luckily I needn't change the articles... except to take out where I have "Semitic people like Assyrians, Syriabs and Aramaens...". Not much sense in mantioning the same people thrice.
What other Semitic people's were there in Jesus' time then in that area?
Judean, Israeli, Assyrian/Syrian/Aramean, Chaldean, and who else? If that's it, makes a lot of sense why Peshitta often talks of Arameans.
