Shlama all--
It is with great pleasure and pride that I announce the final stages of the Mari/PEACE interlinear NT! We are still on track for Pesach release, around April 20th for those keeping score at home. <!-- s:onfire: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/onfire.gif" alt=":onfire:" title="On Fire" /><!-- s:onfire: -->
This morning I received the Master File for the entire translation, from Matthew to Revelation. The English section ALONE is 273 pages with 1335 footnotes. Of course double this number for the matching Aramaic verses.
In addition, more than 300 pages of extra study materials have also been edited in this single volume. Included in these sections are topics such as:
*Restoring the Original Biblical Calendars as a Key to Prophecy.
*Detailed comparitive notes for Khabouris and other Peshitta mss, as well as Old Syriac and later Hebrew sources.
*Detailed studies on the timing of key Gospel events, including the crucifixion and resurrection.
*Exploring the truth behind Josephus' REAL beliefs about Y'shua and dispelling doubts about the facts in his Testimonium once and for all.
*Reconstructing the original Tanakh book list that Josephus and Y'shua both knew and used in the first century.
*Putting together the full sweep of the historical record to show how the Aramaic Scriptures read, where some versions were changed, and annotating all such alterations so that the reader can make up their own mind.
*Sacred names for Father and Son and original Nazarene terminology RESTORED, with a running Nazarene commentary throughout the footnotes. Special attention given to restoring Aramaic understanding also through showing cognates in the Hebrew Tanakh for the exact same words.
*Pronunciation keys and standardized vowel pointing applied to Estrangela for ease in speaking and reading. Comparitive tables with Hebrew letters included.
AND much more! I will give more detailed lists later...
From this point, I will make the final edits shortly and in a few weeks I will then get the "camera ready pdf" which will show the real layout. Once that is approved we are off to the bindery, so stay tuned!
