Quote:We only have witnesses. The one DIRECT translation of it, that says so RIGHT ON THE MANUSCRIPT ITSELF, reads like a harmony of the Peshitta Gospels.
And,....
What evidence shows that this was not a tampering? I'm suppose to believe this cause someone signed it and said so? ok.
The greek fragment, doesn't prove the Peshitta was tatians. Both languages of Ephrems commentary prove differently, that Tatians has western text origin. Would I be so blind and just write this off as vulgarized commentary?
Church fathers have OS quotes mixed in with Peshitta renderings, just like Ephrems commentary. I'm not blind Paul.
