Steve's opinion of The Aramaic Scriptures (The Peshitta)
#6
This Assemani quote has been discussed a lot here. In this thread they seem to conclude that Assemani didn't even see the manuscript but relies on a Mar Elia III.

Just the existence of so old a book (if its age wasn't exaggregated) wouldn't necessarily influence the Peshitta text, just like the existence of Codex Vaticanus (03/B) in Europe from at least 1475 had little to no impact on the texts used in Europe until the 19th century.

Quote:[...] at the same time two prelati kept me in constant conversation in Latin, and if I looked at a passage too long, they would snatch the book out of my hand. — Tregelles
