The three surviving versions of the Gospels in Syriac are of considerable importance both for Biblical and for Semitic Studies. The Old Syriac, preserved in two manuscripts, is one of the earliest translations of the Greek Gospels; the Peshiṭta remains to this day the official Bible of the Syriac Churches, while the ḥarklean is a masterpiece of mirror-translation.
This new edition conveniently provides for the first time the text of all three versions together. The texts of the two Old Syriac manuscripts, the Peshiṭta and the ḥarklean are drawn from the best sources and have been carefully aligned so that their inter-relationship can immediately be seen and studied.
The volumes, which include the first edition of the ḥarklean Gospels for some 200 years (prepared by Dr. Andreas Jückel), will prove an invaluable resource for both Biblical and for Semitic scholarship.

All volumes of the print edition will become available in individual e-books: 9789004534100 (volume 1) - 9789004534117 (volume 2) - 9789004534124 (volume 3) - 9789004534131 (volume 4).
