Mark 6 : 35

Greek employs a genitive absolute construction (ὥρας πολλῆς γενομένης) with aorist participle; Peshitta uses a temporal clause with perfect verb (ܗܘܐ ܥܕܢܐ ܣܓܝܐܐ); Vulgate renders with cum + subjunctive (cum hora multa fieret), all expressing the same temporal notion of 'when much time had passed.'

Greek places the article and possessive pronoun separately (οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ); Peshitta uses a single bound form with pronominal suffix (ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ 'his-disciples'); Vulgate employs a possessive genitive (discipuli ejus), all semantically equivalent but syntactically distinct.

Greek uses ὅτι to introduce indirect discourse; Vulgate employs a colon for punctuation; Peshitta omits any explicit marker, using ܕ- prefix on the demonstrative to introduce the clause, a typical Syriac construction for reported speech.

Greek places the article and noun after the predicate adjective (ἔρημός ἐστιν ὁ τόπος); Peshitta fronts the demonstrative-noun phrase (ܕܗܢܐ ܐܬܪܐ 'this place') before the predicate; Vulgate follows Greek word order (Desertus est locus hic), though all convey identical propositional content.

Greek and Peshitta state 'already the hour is late' (ἤδη ὥρα πολλή / ܘܥܕܢܐ ܣܓܝ), a nominal clause indicating lateness of the hour. Vulgate substitutes with 'and already the hour has passed' (et jam hora præteriit), using the verb praetereo to express temporal progression rather than mere lateness, a substantive semantic shift.

Vulgate closes the verse with a colon, a punctuation choice not reflected in Greek or Peshitta manuscripts, likely editorial rather than textual.
