The Aramaic Peshitta Old Testament (The Former Prophets and The Holy Writings) Joshua to Esther (12 historical books) is translated from the world's oldest complete Semitic Bible - Codex Ambrosianus (6th century AD. The Peshitta Old Testament Bible is written in Aramaic and was translated from early Hebrew manuscripts in the 1st century A.D., before the Massoretic Hebrew text edition became the standard. The Massoretic edition is that used today in Jewish synagogues and temples worldwide and is the text translated to produce most Bible translations of the Old Testament. The Peshitta's Aramaic (Aramaic is a sister Semitic language to Hebrew) gives us a clear look at what the Hebrew Bible text was before the corrupt Scribes of Jesus' time and earlier had altered many of its readings for theological and political reasons. This is English only. 6x9"" hardback; 308 pages with notes.

This is a literal word for word interlinear translation of the 1900+ year old Aramaic Old Testament called the Peshitta. This volume contains the Former Prophets: Joshua, Judges, Ruth,1&2 Samuel,1 & 2 Kings & The Holy Writings:1&2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther. Aramaic was the native language of Jesus and of Israel in the 1st century AD. The text translated is the 6th-7th cent. Codex Ambrosianus- the oldest complete Semitic Old Testament. The Peshitta Old Testament was very likely translated from the Hebrew Bible in the 1st century AD in Israel by Christian coverts from Judaism, or possibly Syrian Christians from across Israel's border. Either way, the Peshitta Old and New Testaments together constitute the first Christian Bible. The author has translated and published an interlinear of the entire Aramaic Peshitta New Testament, Ecclesiastes & The Major and Minor Prophets, The Poetical books and plain English translations of the NT, the Torah, the Psalms & Proverbs. 8x11" paperback 607 pages in B&W.

This is a translation of the complete Peshitta Aramaic Bible into English- the 39 Old Testament books and the 27 New Testament books. The Peshitta Bible was very likely written in the 1st century AD. The Old Testament was translated from proto-Massoretic Hebrew manuscripts, similar to those from which the Greek Septuagint was translated in the 3rd century BC. The New Testament is the original New Testament text from which the Greek manuscripts were translated and disseminated for the Greek speaking Roman citizens of the 1st century. This edition has no notes included to enable the author to fit all the books into one volume. Other editions of each Testament are available with numerous textual notes. Paperback 8x11 B&W. 724 pages.

This is a deluxe edition printed on 80# glossy paper as a color edition, even though it is black & white. There was no other way to print it on glossy paper, thus the high cost. The font used in this edition for the scripture text is fairly close to the type used in William Tyndale's translations from 1525 to 1535, and is used as a tribute to him and his magnificent work. He was the first to translate the Old and New Testaments from their respective Hebrew and Greek manuscripts into English. Prior to that only the Latin Bible had been translated by John Wycliffe. William Tyndale was sentenced to the stake, strangled and burned in 1536. Before he died, he prayed: "Lord, open the King of England's eyes!" In 1537, Tyndale's translation was published as "Matthew's Bible." It was recommended to Henry the 8th by Archbishop Cranmer as the best he had read and it was installed in every pulpit in England by the King's decree. Sixty eight years later in 1604, King James the 1st commissioned a revision of Tyndale's Bible among 54 translators. They retained 76% of Tyndale's wording in the 15 Hebrew Old Testament books he had completed before his martyrdom, and 83% of his New Testament wording! The result was the 1611 Authorized Version, commonly known as the King James Version. This translation is based on my Peshitta Interlinear Bible, a literal word for word Aramaic-English translation of the complete 66 book Protestant canon of the Bible, published in 2018. I know of no other such translation of the Peshitta Bible available in the English language. George Lamsa's translation was mixed, especially of the Old Testament, where he often used translations of the Hebrew Bible, not translating the Peshitta text only, as I have done.

The Peshitta Old Testament, unlike the Peshitta New Testament, is a translation. In this case, it is a translation of the original Hebrew Bible. What is especially interesting and valuable about the Peshitta Old Testament is that it is represented in the oldest Semitic manuscript of the complete Old Testament extant, in the Codex Ambrosianus, commonly dated to the 6th or 7th century AD. The Peshitta Old Testament is commonly believed by scholars to be a 2nd century AD translation. I believe that it is older than that, based on its readings and also on many of the headings of the Psalms in Western Codex Ambrosianus of the 6th century, several of which actually date the original text in the 1st century A.D. I have not included these headings in my translation, only the scripture text itself. I hope to include these in a future edition, as they are fascinating evidence for dating and locating the original work, as well as the Christian faith of the translators. The Peshitta Old Testament and New Testament are quoted extensively by the Persian Bishop Aphraates of Nineveh who wrote Bible commentaries in his native Aramaic in AD 337 until his death in AD 367. I have read and compared his quotes to the Peshitta Old Testament and The Peshitta NT & Old Syriac Gospels. Other detailed studies of these quotations show that he was using the canon and text of the Peshitta Bible for both Testaments as opposed to any conjectural "Old Syriac" Bible, the vestiges of which are supposed to reside today only in two partial manuscripts of the Gospels which differ considerably from each other, and are dated to the 5th century. One ms. is the Curetonian; another is the Sinaitic Syriac. One great reference online with a detailed study of Aphraates (also called Aphrahat) is Peshitta.org. Paul Younan, a native Aramaean and Aramaic speaker from Lebanon and member of the Church of The East did a comparison of the Syriac readings of Aphraates with The Peshitta and The Old Syriac text of the Gospels, as well as Peshitta readings in Paul's Epistles.
