Mark 1 : 23

Greek εὐθύς ('immediately') is omitted in both Peshitta and Vulgate. This adverb is characteristic of Mark's rapid narrative style but was evidently deemed non-essential by the translators, who preserve the temporal sequence through context alone.

Greek uses the imperfect ἦν with prepositional phrase ἐν τῇ συναγωγῇ αὐτῶν; Vulgate mirrors this with erat in synagoga eorum. Peshitta employs the existential particle ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ with a single suffixed noun ܒܟܢܘܫܬܗܘܢ ('in-their-synagogue'), a more compact Syriac construction expressing the same locative sense.

Greek uses the prepositional phrase ἐν πνεύματι ἀκαθάρτῳ ('in/with an unclean spirit'); Vulgate replicates this with in spiritu immundo. Peshitta employs a relative construction ܕܐܝܬ ܒܗ ܪܘܚܐ ܛܡܐܬܐ ('who had in him an unclean spirit'), making the possession more explicit through the relative particle ܕ and pronominal suffix ܒܗ ('in-him').

Vulgate inserts a colon after immundo, creating a stronger pause before the demon's outcry. Neither Greek nor Peshitta manuscripts transmit punctuation at this juncture, maintaining continuous narrative flow from description to action.
