I know what ya mean...I as well. Let us know if you find anything of interest.
And speaking of comparison of texts...
Brother Steve...why do you use the Greek minority text for the text for your Aramaic Lord's Prayer bracelet?
I think it looks neat, but, the text is missing something our Lord said there, it looks like to me. Should I take it then, that you feel Matthew's Gospel has added parts which aren't original, and that the reading of Luke should be shortened further in the Peshitta's text, as it is in a few Greek MSS, and the Sinaitic (old scratch) text?
How do you know that the Peshitta reading in Luke and Matthew aren't correct? If it's just a matter of space on the bracelet, I guess I understand the reason there, but...I think "and deliver us from evil" is part of the prayer, don't you?
Shlama,
