Thank you men, for your help with this.
I have heard that the word "MarYah" can only mean "YHVH" and never be a term for "Master" like the word "Adonai" can in hebrew. Is this true? Is it ever used any other way, but to refer to YHVH?
Please don't get into a theological fight over this, I am just curious if you guys have researched this further.
I think I'll sit down and do my best to translate it from the hebrew translation of the Peshitta, which I do have. I'm just curious how close I'll get to what is typed here. I am also curious why Lamsa and the other guy referrenced use the word "Lord" with lower-case "ord" in it instead of "LORD" if it is true that MarYah can only mean YHVH.
Curious...
