punctuation All three attest

Greek NT αὐτοῖς·

Peshitta ܠܗܘܢ

Vulgate illis Hic

The Vulgate inserts a colon after 'illis' to mark direct discourse, while Greek uses a raised dot (·) and Peshitta employs no explicit punctuation marker. This represents Latin scribal convention rather than textual divergence.

Greek NT τὸ αἷμά μου

Peshitta ܕܡܝ

Vulgate meus novi

Greek employs the articular construction τὸ αἷμά μου with neuter article governing the noun phrase, while Syriac uses the bound-state construct ܕܡܝ (demi, 'my blood') and Latin uses simple apposition (sanguis meus). All three express identical possessive semantics through language-specific morphosyntactic strategies.

Greek NT τὸ τῆς καινῆς διαθήκης

Peshitta ܕܕܝܬܩܐ ܚܕܬܐ

Vulgate testamenti qui

Greek places the genitive phrase τῆς καινῆς διαθήκης after αἷμά μου with double articulation (τὸ... τὸ τῆς), creating an appositional structure. Syriac and Latin both employ attributive adjective-noun order (ܕܕܝܬܩܐ ܚܕܬܐ / novi testamenti) in construct/genitive relationship, reflecting their respective norms for attributive modification within genitive phrases.

Greek NT τὸ ἐκχυννόμενον ὑπὲρ πολλῶν

Peshitta ܕܚܠܦ ܣܓܝܐܐ ܡܬܐܫܕ

Vulgate pro multis effundetur

Greek uses an articular present passive participle τὸ ἐκχυννόμενον ὑπὲρ πολλῶν ('which is being poured out for many') with neuter agreement. Vulgate employs a masculine relative clause 'qui pro multis effundetur' with future passive, while Syriac uses the participle ܡܬܐܫܕ ('being poured out') with prepositional phrase ܕܚܠܦ ܣܓܝܐܐ. The Latin future tense represents theological interpretation of the imminent sacrifice, whereas Greek and Syriac present tenses emphasize the ritual's present efficacy.
