Who the original translators of the Old Testament Peshitta were still remains a mystery, at least in part because only internal evidence is available. This study proposes a method to exploit such internal evidence using a target-oriented approach to translation research. This method differentiates types of decisions a translator makes when compelled by language difference from those intentional strategies used by a translator when there are multiple non-compulsory decisions from which to choose. Through a study of non-obligatory strategies, patterns emerge from the translation that reveal the norms which govern the translation process. The strategies used by the translator are characterized as either grammatical and syntactical, semantic, or pragmatic. This study uses many examples from the Peshitta XII to illustrate and explain the different strategies within each of the three categories of non-obligatory strategies. Norms that govern the translator can be derived from the regular use of many of the strategies in chapters 1-3. Chapter 4 examines the internal evidence for specific types of norms that exist in the Peshitta XII. After establishing several of the norms that exist in the production of the translation of the Peshitta XII, this chapter then examines what should be considered an error of translation. Errors of translation are explained in conjunction with respective translation norms, demonstrating the translator's inconsistency with established norms. Many examples are given with commentary that demonstrate several places where the translator miscomprehends the source text. The translator seems to have had familiarity with other texts in the production of the text, whether this was the LXX, other portions of the Peshitta Old Testament, or the tradition that produced the Targum. A target-oriented approach to translation studies using the categories of norms and strategies provides a fruitful method for future research on other books of the Peshitta. The collation of these different studies in the future will provide fertile ground for reaping meaningful data about the translators of the Peshitta (e.g., how many, proficiency, and perhaps even details of their faiths and cultures). This study aims to clarify the methodology for such a study and to become a tool for facilitating interdisciplinary research amongst researchers of different types of translated works of antiquity.

The Peshitta Institute Leiden is fulfilling its aim of producing a critical edition of the Old Testament in Syriac according to the Peshitta version. As this critical edition becomes available, Translation Technique in the Peshitta to Ezekiel 1-24: A Frame Semantics Approach takes its role in providing perspectives on the value of the Peshitta to Ezekiel in Old Testament textual studies. Godwin Mushayabasa uses the cognitive linguistics approach of frame semantics to determine what techniques were used to translate Ezekiel 1-24 from Hebrew to Syriac. He observes that the Peshitta was translated at the level of semantic frames, producing a fairly literal translation. In achieving this, the author also invokes interdisciplinary dialogue between biblical textual studies and cognitive linguistics sciences.

The Literary Coherence of the Book of Micah puts forth a framework to understand the nature of literary coherence. This enables an analysis of the sources and dimensions of the coherence found in the book of Micah by the primary scholarly proposals for understanding the structure and connectedness of the whole book. Each of these proposals ultimately fails to account for all the features found in the text. The author then explains a new reading of the final form of the text of Micah, based on the placement of the references concerning the remnant. A brief exposition of the text as a canonical whole indicates the flow and development in the final form of the book. The framework formulated earlier provides a basis to evaluate the coherence that this understanding of the book of Micah uncovers and to show that this means of reading the canonical book best accounts for the greatest number of features in the text.

This book is the result of an innovative linguistic study of the Syriac translation of Ben Sira. It contains both a traditional philological analysis, incorporating matters of text-historical interest and translation technique, and also the results of a computational linguistic analysis of phrases, clauses and texts. It arrives at new linguistic insights, including a proposal for a corpus-based description of phrase structure based on a so-called maximum matrix. The book also addresses the fundamentally different way in which a text is approached in a computer-assisted analysis compared with the way in which this is done in traditional philological approaches. It demonstrates how the computer-assisted analysis can fruitfully shed light on or supplement traditional philological research.

The Peshit ta of Daniel sets forth an analysis of the Syriac text of the Book of Daniel.

Making use of the Leiden edition of the Syriac text, it seeks to evaluate the text-critical value of the Peshit ta of Daniel. It also describes various translation techniques employed in the Peshit ta of Daniel and evaluates its qualities as a translation.

For nearly half a century, the Aramaic version of Job found amongst the scrolls at Qumran has been celebrated as the earliest example of that unique genre of Jewish bible translation known to the Rabbis as targum. In this groundbreaking study, the author challenges this assumption by re-evaluating this significant Qumran text in light of other ancient Aramaic versions of Job, including the Peshitta and Targum. After a fresh review of five decades of research on the Qumran text, the author draws on recent work in the study of the ancient Aramaic versions to chart a new course in its exploration. While both similarities and differences of approach among the respective Aramaic translators are illuminated by a series of examples drawn directly from the texts, the rigorous scrutiny of each version's re-presentation of its source text provides a firm basis for a reassessment of the relationship between the Qumran Aramaic version of Job and its Syriac and Targumic counterparts. By situating the Qumran version within the broader context of other ancient Aramaic versions, the author makes a significant contribution to our understanding of Aramaic idiom and style in the time of the Second Temple. More importantly, however, he offers a radical revision of the Aramaic version of Job's classification and a new and innovative perspective on its place in the panoply of ancient bible versions originating in this crucial period.

Textual critics and biblical scholars recognize the need to understand the unique character of a biblical version before comparing its readings to the Masoretic Text. This study focuses on the character of the Syriac version of 1 Samuel and its relationship to the MT, the LXX, Targum Jonathan and the Hebrew texts from Qumran. Readings that are unique to this version are organized so as to expose its translation techniques, exegesis, and other characteristics. Readings that agree with the LXX and Targum Jonathan against the MT are evaluated with a view to detecting traces of influence from these versions. This study will assist biblical scholars, text critics, and students of the Peshitta who wish to learn more about a particular reading or about the Peshitta’s overall character.
