Shlama Akhi Keefa:
Let's start with the differences between the UBS 1905 and the Khabouris Codex.
UBS
?????? ?????? ???????? ?????? ?????? ???????? ?????????? ?????? ???????? ???????? ?????????? ?????? ?????? ???????? ???????????? ??????
Khabouris
?????? ?????? ???????? ?????? ?????? ???????? ?????????? ?????? ???????? ???????? ?????????? ?????? ?????? ???????? ???????????? ??????
Crawford Codex

The Crawford Codex is primarily the Eastern Peshitta text, as is the Khabouris. However, there are some variants, so I use it as a control text against the Khabouris when there is a variant in the UBS. One of the problems with this particular passage, as you can now see, is that it is faded and is illegible where we want to see if there is a Vav or a Beth. So is it GWRA ???????? or GBRA ???????? in the Crawford Codex? It is reasonable to assume that the Khabouris Codex reveals a scribal error.
