To my untrained eye, the Syriac versions seem to be summaries of sections of the shorter Greek recension. I am not afraid of being shown the error of my ways, though. Do you have a feel for if the shorter Syriac leters of Ignatius refer to the Pauline Epistles in a way that is above and beyond what...

Here is that last one. The ET of the Syriac was already in the Romans epistle file, but here at least you can see what the the rest of the shorter & longer Greek recensions have to say. (Ignatius) Trallians (ETs of shorter & longer Greek & Syriac fragment, compared).pdf To my unt...

In days past (2015), whilst I was busy with my comparison of the Longer and Shorter (aka "Middle") Greek recensions of epistles where both shorter and longer Greek existed, I did compare them to the ANF version of Cureton's epistles. Interesting thing was, there are only three actual Syria...

Mindful of him, do ye by all means know that Jesus the Lord was truly born of Mary , being made of a woman; and was as truly crucifie...

Well, I hate to add to perfection itself (uh huh) but I was formerly relying on De Jonge for my Philo citations. De Jonge does not include a translation of a work of Philo known as Hypothetica (aka Apology for the Jews), as this is preserved only as a citation of Philo in Preparation for the Gospel....

Part of my problem is that I do not read Carrier, at all. Someone had cited the letter to the Tarsians in an earlier post, so I thought that might be it. According to my analysis of this epistle (posted several years ago) to the Philadelphians: 8.2) And I exhort you to do nothing out of strife, but ...
