Shlama Akhi Dave,
Heheh. <!-- s:biggrin: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/biggrin.gif" alt=":biggrin:" title="Big Grin" /><!-- s:biggrin: -->
In all seriousness, you said that we probably don't know anything for sure. Well - let me just say one thing I know for sure:
I know for sure that if all I had as a primary witness to Meshikha was the myriad of Greek texts, I would have converted to Judaism or Islam a loooong time ago.
Thank God for the Peshitta, and the rock-solid textual history behind it.
