I love the Lamsa Bible despite its faults. For some reason the translation feels Semitic to me. With the popularity of the Lamsa translation, I am shocked that it hasn't been revised. Most of Lamsa's issues are limited to the Synoptic Gospels. Sure, he has some Greek interpolation but it is still a good representative of the Aramaic Peshitta text and a good introduction. It wouldn't take a whole lot of work to fix it up and make it the best that it could be.
