John 17:3

(Young's Literal) and this is the life age-during, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and him whom Thou didst send -- Jesus Christ;

===================================

“Father”?
“your truth… truth”?  “the truth… truth”?

Both the Peshitta and the by-A.D. 175 Diatessaron have “Father” and “your truth… truth.”

John 17:17 - Father, sanctify them in your truth, your word is truth.
       Father - this text is part of the Aramaic Peshitta, but is completely missing from the Greek NA28, MHT and TR.
       your truth - this is the reading of the Aramean Peshitta and the Greek MHT and TR. Only from the Greek NA28 the lecture reads: 'the truth'.

“he”?

Both the Peshitta and the by-A.D. 175 Diatessaron have “Jesus.”

       Jesus - this is the reading of the Aramean Peshitta. The reading of the Greek NA28, MHT and TR reads: 'He'.
       I AM [(‹het›)] - these words are a reference to the divinity of Jesus to which the disciples' response then comes in vs. 33 "Really, You are the Son of God!" From Jh. 8:58, where Jesus says "Before Abraham was I AM," it also appears that such a statement held a claim of divinity (cf. Jn 5:17 ›) and was sufficient to be stoned if that claim is unfounded used to be. See also the question of the high priest to Jesus in Mk. 14:61 "Are you the Son of the Blessed One?" And the answer to that, "I AM!" Just before the capture, Jesus had said all those words when he asked them, "Who are you looking for?", and the soldiers replied, "Jesus the Nazarene!", to whom Jesus replied, "I (‹BEN›) He" (‹or "I AM it"›), to which they had recoiled and fell to the ground (Jh 18: 4-6 ›).

And Jesus asked them again, Whom seek ye? They answered, Jesus the Nazarene. 

===================================
Do you think John 18:11 originally had:
“my Father”?
“the Father”?

Both the Peshitta and the by-A.D. 175 Diatessaron have “my Father.”

John 18:11 - (Then) Jesus said to Kifa: “Put the sword (back) into its sheath. Will I not drink the cup that my Father has given Me? "
       my Father - this is the reading of the Aramean Peshitta. The reading of the Greek NA28, MHT and TR reads: 'Father'.

Diatessaron 48:36
Jesus said unto Cephas, The cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? Put the sword into its sheath: for all that take with the sword shall die by the sword.

       [(‹Of the high priest›)] - the second time in this verse the words are not part of the Aramaic Peshitta, but of the Greek NA28, MHT and TR.

Diatessaron 48:49
And Simon Cephas and one of the other disciples followed Jesus. And the chief priest knew that disciple, and he entered with Jesus into the court; but Simon was standing without at the door. 

John 18:15
(Berean Literal) And Simon Peter and the other disciple were following Jesus. Now since that disciple was known to the high priest, he also entered with Jesus into the court of the high priest.
(Aramaic Bible in Plain English) But Shimeon Kaypha and one of the other disciples were coming after Yeshua, and that disciple had known The High Priest and he entered with Yeshua to the courtyard.

John 18:22 - When He said this, one of the guards standing by hit Jesus on the cheek and said to Him, "Answer the high priest like that?"
on the cheek - this is the reading of the Aramean Peshitta. The reading of the Greek NA28, MHT and TR reads: 'in the face'.

Diatessaron 49:4
And when he had said that, one of the soldiers which were standing there struck the cheek of Jesus, and said unto him, Dost thou thus answer the chief priest?

John 18:22
(Berean Literal) Now of His having said these things, one of the officers standing by gave a blow with the palm to Jesus, having said, "Do You answer the high priest this way?"
(Aramaic Bible in Plain English) And when he had said these things, one of the guards who was standing there struck Yeshua on the cheek and said to him, “Do you answer thus to The High Priest?”
(Young's Literal) And he having said these things, one of the officers standing by did give Jesus a slap, saying, 'Thus dost thou answer the chief priest?'

===================================
Do you think John 18:26 originally had:

John 18:26 - One of the servants of the high priest, a blood relative of the one whose Simeon had cut off his ear, said, "Haven't I seen you in the garden with Him?"
Simeon - this is the reading of the Aramean Peshitta. The reading of the Greek NA28, MHT and TR reads: 'Kifa'.

Diatessaron 49:11
And after a little one of the servants of the chief priest, the kinsman of him whose ear Simon cut off, saw him; and he disputed and said, Truly this man was with him: and he also is a Galilaean; and his speech resembles. And he said unto Simon, Did not I see thee with him in the garden?

and said to them - this is the reading of the Aramean Peshitta. The reading of the Greek NA28, MHT and TR reads 'and said'.

Diatessaron 49:45

===================================

“peace”?
“slaps,” as in “blows with the palm”?
“hitting on the cheeks” (which could be slaps and/or punches)?
“and said”?
“and they came up to Him and said”?

Both the Peshitta and the by-A.D. 175 Diatessaron have “peace,” “hitting on the cheeks” and “and said.”

John 19:3 - and said, "Greetings in peace (and we to you), King of the Jews!" And they smote Him on the cheeks.

they hit Him on the cheeks - this is the reading of the Aramean Peshitta.

Diatessaron 50:42

“crucify, crucify…. crucify”?

Both the Peshitta and the by-A.D. 175 Diatessaron have “crucify him, crucify him…. crucify him.”

John 19:6 - When the chief priests and the guards saw Him, they shouted and said, "Crucify Him, crucify Him!" Pilate said to them, "Then take Him with you and crucify Him, for I find no fault in Him."
Crucify Him, crucify Him - in the Aramaic Peshitta these words are always in the b. wise 2nd pers. singular, also in the other Gospels. In the Greek NA28, MHT and TR, the imperative is also in the 2nd person singular, as if one is shouting directly at Pilate. Furthermore, the Greek text is always missing the word 'Him'.

Diatessaron 50:45
And when the chief priests and the soldiers saw him, they cried out and said, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate said unto them, Take him yourselves, and crucify him: for I find not a cause against him.

(Young's Literal) When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers did see him, they cried out, saying, 'Crucify, crucify;' Pilate saith to them, 'Take ye him -- ye, and crucify; for I find no fault in him;'
