This is a high-quality reprint edition of the famous 1905/1920 Peshitta, originally published by the British and Foreign Bible Society. This edition is considered the official traditional Syriac version of the New Testament. The text is fully vowel pointed and thus easy to read. Includes the entire New Testament - both the traditional Canon of the Easter Church (Matthew-James), and also 1 John-Revelation. PREFACE: IN 1905 the British and Foreign Bible Society published an edition of the Gospels in Syriac, reprinted by permission from a revised text of the Peshitta Version which had been prepared by the late Rev. G. H. Gwilliam., B.D., with a Latin translation and critical apparatus, and issued by the Clarendon Press in 1901. To these have now been added the books from Acts to Revelation, thus completing the New Testament. By special arrangement with the Delegates of the Clarendon Press, the text of the· Acts of the Apostles, the General Epistle of James, the First Epistle General of Peter, the First Epistle General of John, and the Pauline Epistles (including Hebrews), follows a critical revision of the Peshitta originally undertaken by Mr. Gwilliam for the Clarendon Press as a completion of his edition of the Gospels (1901); and prepared on similar lines. In the collation' of manuscripts at the British Museum Library, and in the correction of the proofs, the editor received assistance from the Rev. J. Pinkerton, B.D., who carried on and completed this work after Mr. Gwilliam's death in 1913. The eighteen books mentioned above are arranged in the order which is found in many of the oldest Syriac manuscripts; and the text is divided into the larger sections of the ancient Syriac system, numbering thirty-two in the Acts and the three Major Catholic Epistles, which are reckoned as forming one series, and fifty-five in the fourteen Pauline Epistles. In an appendix, in order to complete the New Testament, are added the four Minor Catholic Epistles· 2 Peter, 2 and 3 John, and Jude and Revelation, which were not included in the Canon of the Peshitta. The text of Revelation is taken by permission from an edition issued in 1897, which was prepared by the late Rev. John Gwynn, D.D., Regius Professor of Divinity at the University of Dublin, from a ma11uscript formerly in the possession of the Earl of Crawford and Balcarres, but now preserved in the John Rylands Library, Manchester. The text of the four Epistles follows the Philoxenian Version, as given in Dr. Gwynn' 8 edition· of Remnants of the later Syriac Versions of the Bible, published in 1909. For the use of these two texts the Bible Society is indebted to the kindness of Dr. Gwynn, and of· the owners of the copyrights, the Board, of Trinity College, Dublin, and the Council' of the Text and Translation Society.
