Re: [hugoye-list] Re: Exchanging Reed for Reed

All,
Looking deeper into the Syriac tradition of this saying in Mt11v7 yields an interesting result. It may indicate that a slightly different idiom was being used by Yeshu`a.

Ephrem of Nisibis may have known a gospel text where instead of only qanya = 'reed', his text read qanya `eela = 'the leaf of the reed'. The word used here for 'leaf' isn't Syriac, it is JPA and found in the Palestinian Talmud, (see Jastrow p. 1080 column 1). So, one wonders how a Palestinian Aramaic word could have found it's way out of Ephrem's pen, unless it had found it's way there via a Syriac gospel text?

The same quotation from Ephrem's prose refutations has been edited at least twice:
Mitchell, C. F., "S. Ephraim’s prose refutations of Mani, Marcion and
Bardaisan transcribed from the palimpsest B.M. Add. 14623," 2 volumes, 1912 and 1921 Publ.: Text and
Translation Soc. / Williams & Norgate.
- see volume 2, pages 106 - 107
Louis Leloir, ‘L’Évangile d’Éphrem d’après les oeuvres éditées’ Corpus Scriptorum Christianorum Orientalium, volume 180, subsidia, tome 12.
- see quotation 142

Does this modified idiom connect with anything in the OT?

Best wishes,
Steven Ring.

The use of idiom to relate the spiritual is key to understanding the Word. In the idiom related here the correct term to open the understanding is to `set up' or `raise up' the sacred bundle representing the Divine Man to come. There are other interesting idioms that play upon the term KNH. All of these are deeply significant. Your confirmation that KALAMOS is a falsity sustained in the Word authoritatively answers my question. I needed to confirm that KNH is the Word spoken by the Lord when He walked the earth, as the Divine Man. The knowledge you imparted is both heartening and warmly appreciated.

Judgment on Assyria, Isaiah 30:27-33
Behold, the name of the LORD (Jesus the Anointed) [with KNH BSM] comes from afar,
Burning with His anger,
And His burden is heavy;
His lips are full of indignation,
And His tongue like a devouring fire.
His breath is like an overflowing stream,
Which reaches up to the neck,
To sift the nations with the sieve of futility;
And there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people,
Causing them to err.
You shall have a song
As in the night when a holy festival is kept,
And gladness of heart as when one goes with a flute,
To come into the mountain of the LORD,
To the Mighty One of Israel.
The LORD will cause His glorious voice to be heard,
And show the descent of His arm,
With the indignation of His anger
And the flame of a devouring fire,
With scattering, tempest, and hailstones.
For through the voice of the LORD
Assyria will be beaten down,
As He strikes with the rod.
And in every place where the staff of punishment passes,
Which the LORD lays on him,
It will be with tambourines and harps;
And in battles of brandishing He will fight with it.
For Tophet was established of old,
Yes, for the King it is prepared.
He has made it deep and large;
Its pyre is fire with much wood;
The breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone,
Kindles it.


Psalm CXXVI

Twas like a dream when by the Lord
From bondage Zion was restored:
Our mouths were filled with mirth, our tongues
Were ever singing joyful songs.

The heathen owned what God had wrought;
Great works, with joy to us were brought,
As southern streams, when filled with rain,
Lord, turn our captive state again.

Who sow in tears, with joy will reap;
Though bearing precious seed they weep
While going forth, yet shall they sing,
When coming back their sheaves they bring.
