| Summary: | In the late Professor Camden Cobern's useful book entitled The New Archaeological Discoveries and their Bearing upon the New Testament a section is devoted to Tatian's Harmony of the Gospels, and on pages 205–207 a list of its remarkable readings is given, according to the Arabic text published by Ciasca. The list is misleading, for many of the supposed examples of variation from, the standard text are not such in reality. Hamlyn Hill's English translation, on which Cobern relied, is not always correct, and the Arabic translator himself was sometimes unfortunate in his rendering of an ambiguous Syriac word or phrase. |
