Verb Tense in the Peshitta Tanakh
#1
In the original Hebrew Old Testament, the verbs are almost always in present tense, creating a unique effect of making it seem like the events of the Tanakh are unfolding before your eyes (which is something most translations of the Tanakh miss), and this is especially cool to see in Genesis. Does the Peshitta also use present-tense verbs?
