Mark 13 : 22

Greek uses the compound ψευδόχριστοι ('false Christs'); Peshitta employs a construct phrase ܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܕܓܠܘܬܐ ('Christs of falsehood'); Vulgate borrows the Greek compound as pseudochristi. All three convey identical semantics through different morphological strategies.

Greek ψευδοπροφῆται and Vulgate pseudoprophetæ use compound forms; Peshitta again employs a construct phrase ܘܢܒܝܐ ܕܟܕܒܘܬܐ ('and prophets of lying'), mirroring the pattern established with 'false Christs.' This is a consistent Syriac idiom for rendering Greek compounds.

Greek uses πρὸς τὸ + infinitive (ἀποπλανᾶν) to express purpose; Vulgate employs ad + gerund (seducendos); Peshitta uses a finite verb ܘܢܛܥܘܢ ('and they will deceive') coordinated with the main clause. All three express the same purposive sense through tradition-specific syntactic means.

Greek εἰ δυνατόν ('if possible') is a conditional adjective phrase; Peshitta ܐܢ ܡܫܟܚܐ mirrors this structure; Vulgate expands to si fieri potest ('if it can be done'), using an infinitive construction with potest. The Vulgate rendering is more verbose but semantically equivalent.

Greek καί functions as an intensive particle ('even'); Peshitta ܐܦ and Vulgate etiam both serve the same emphatic function. This represents standard lexical equivalence across the three traditions for marking climactic emphasis.
