Why this site?
Post by yaaqub on Wed Jan 16, 2008 6:21 pm
While I appreciate all the work in Peshitta NT research and translation work such as Paul Younan's work at peshitta.org, it's sad that not enough is being done in Peshitta Tanakh by others - especially by the Aramaic speaking Jewish community, which is one of my personal goals.
I'd like to see people have the Tanakh in their hands with proper English and Spanish translations of the same (as well as Targumim), and without charge to sincere individuals if at all possible.
To this end I am in the middle of preparing what I'm calling the "Peshitta Polyglot" of the Tanakh with the Aramaic, Hebrew, English, Spanish and a comprehensive section on how other translations (other languages, and versions) render certain passages, words or phrases. This is why this forum exists.
