The "O" argument
#2
Indeed GNT reads as you wrote. There appears (strangely) one character for the w-mega in Revelation 1:8, after "alfa" the name of the first letter of the alphabet (see <!-- l --><a class="postlink-local" href="http://www.peshitta.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=2122">viewtopic.php?f=17&t=2122</a><!-- l -->). However, I honestly do not understand the rest of the argument. If O-mega (large o) as the name of the letter appeared at a later date it is reasonable that the text (presumably, older and original) contains just one character, not that name. So lack of the name would be an argument for the older date of GNT, not against. By the way, both letters (o-mikron, and o-mega) were in use BC. Would be interested to know more.
