Mark 1 : 41

Greek uses the aorist passive participle σπλαγχνισθεὶς ('having compassion') without explicit object. Peshitta expands with ܐܬܪܚܡ ܥܠܘܗܝ ('he had compassion on him'), making the pronominal object explicit. Vulgate misertus ejus similarly includes the genitive pronoun ejus, both traditions clarifying the implicit Greek construction.

Greek employs aorist participle + article + noun + possessive pronoun (ἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ, 'having stretched out the hand of him'). Peshitta uses finite verb + pronominal suffix on noun (ܘܦܫܛ ܐܝܕܗ, 'and he stretched out his hand'), a typical Semitic bound-state construction. Vulgate mirrors Greek syntax with extendit manum suam but follows with colon punctuation, creating a clause break absent in Greek.

Greek uses finite aorist ἥψατο ('he touched [him]') with implicit object. Peshitta employs two verbs ܩܪܒ ܠܗ ('he drew near to him'), making the approach explicit before the touch. Vulgate uses conjunction et + participle tangens eum ('and touching him'), converting the Greek finite verb to a participial construction and adding explicit pronominal object.

Greek uses conjunction + present verb + dative pronoun (καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ, 'and he says to him'). Peshitta contracts to single verb ܘܐܡܪ ('and he said'), with implicit object. Vulgate expands with ait illi flanked by colons, creating dramatic punctuation breaks that segment the speech act from the quoted words, a stylistic choice absent in Greek and Peshitta.

Greek θέλω ('I am willing') stands alone as first-person verb. Peshitta adds explicit subject pronoun ܨܒܐ ܐܢܐ ('I am willing, I'), a common Syriac emphasis pattern. Vulgate Volo is followed by a colon, again using punctuation to isolate the volitional statement, whereas Greek uses only a comma before the imperative.
