sure, but according to the profiles, you and Lawrence are not. two non Orthodox should not be having their own conversation on here

OK, I see your point. Can this be moved? thanks

I'll see what I can do. I don't have permissions myself.

ETA: This may take a while. There are almost no staff online and this would be a lower priority than some more serious problems ...

Greetings ArmyMatt, I am a firm believer in 'netiquette'. What would be the best location on this forum to move to? Shlama w'Burkate, LawrenceRaymond

Maybe Christian History would be the most appropriate?

It is more to do with Textual studies

Greetings Anastasia, I think "Theology (Christians only)" >> "Christian Sxriptures" >> "Bibliology & Hermeneutics" would be the best location. The description under the heading "Bibliology & Hermeneutics" reads "The study of the Bible and Scriptures, and its interpretation and translation."

 

[ArmyMatt]

you all could also PM each other. sorry if I sounded grumpy or anything, but these threads can turn into messes if we don't keep the rules.

I thought I you are right. I first checked Christian Scriptures, but the TOS says it is to discuss certain passages. I didn't see the subforum you mention. I didn't WANT to suggest history, but I wasn't seeing anyplace better. Thanks!

I know, Matt. I kept hoping it would come around perhaps to some particular manuscripts or info we have, but it hasn't. It isn't appropriate here, but I have to wait on someone else to move it. And sometimes it ends up just getting shut down which I didn't want to see happen either. Especially with two new members.

By the way, welcome to you both, Filos-tou-Iisou and LawrenceRaymond!

We ARE glad that you've joined us, though the thread is needing to be moved. We have many forum areas, with different rules in some cases, and different purposes. If you ever wonder, most forums have a Statement of Purpose explaining what kinds of posts and who may post there. It's not nearly as complex as it might look though, and most people find a handful of areas thst suit their purposes and frequent then. Anytime you have a question though, feel free to ask.

Again, welcome to you both. God be with you. Feel free to drop into TAW to discuss in fellowship anytime. It just seems this particular text doesn't have overmuch to go with us (more so the Oriental Orthodox, I think).

Hopefully we will get it moved to a suitable area soon.

MOD HAT

Moving this to Christian Scriptures since specific scripture is mentioned in the OP.

Thanks, Free!

I hope this is acceptable.

Please carry on, gentlemen.

Overall then, you think the Easter Test is more accurate? I have been curious about it for some time.

Sorry for taking so long to get back with you. The answer is emphatically YES! The introduction to William Norton's work is quite lengthy but well worth it if you want to fully understand why people of various denominational persuasions are so enthusiastic about the Aramaic Peshitta Text.

A translation, in English daily used, of the Peshito-Syriac text, and of the received Greek text, of Hebrews, James, 1 Peter, and 1 John : with an introduction on the Peshito-Syriac text, and the revised Greek text of 1881 : Norton, William : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive
