I am sure you know Dukhrana, the Peshitta tool gives you the Aramaic text, Eastern and Western, 5 different Greek versions along with the Latin Vulgate and English translations of the Peshitto. It is not perfectly set up for the task yet, because the texts are critical editions anyway. But let me see what I can find online.
It would be a great undertaking, but it would be a great thing to do and we have some of the tools we need to do it. If I werent pre-occupied with something else I would do it myself, but I feel that if we ever want to get to the bottom of the issue we will need all of our evidences gathered together and discussed systematically and comprehensively.
My goal would be to show that there is no reasonable case against Peshitta Primacy, but that the case for it is strong enough to vindicate those who believe it as being reasonable and respectable.
