Mark 7 : 15

Greek expresses the negation with a single negative pronoun οὐδέν ('nothing'), whereas the Peshitta splits the idea into a negative existential particle ܠܝܬ ('there is not') plus the indefinite noun ܡܕܡ ('a thing'), a standard Syriac construction for 'nothing'; the Vulgate Nihil mirrors the Greek single-word form.

The copula ἐστιν / est is overtly expressed in Greek and Latin; Syriac folds existence into the particle ܠܝܬ already counted above and supplies no separate verb 'to be' here.

Greek and Latin use a single neuter participle (εἰσπορευόμενον / introiens, 'entering'); the Peshitta renders with the resumptive pronoun ܗܘ plus a finite verb ܘܥܐܠ ('and enters'), turning the attributive participle into a coordinated clause typical of Syriac syntax.

Greek uses the neuter plural substantival article τὰ ('the things'); the Peshitta employs the singular indefinite ܡܕܡ ('a thing'), a collective singular for 'whatever,' while the Latin quæ matches the Greek plural. The number disagreement is idiomatic rather than substantive.

Greek piles up an articular prepositional phrase with participle (τὰ ἐκ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐκπορευόμενά, 'the things proceeding out of the man'); Latin parallels this with quæ de homine procedunt; the Peshitta compresses the whole to a single relative clause ܕܢܦܩ ('which goes out'), deferring the explicit 'from him' to the next token.

Greek redundantly repeats the source with ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ ('from him') after the verb of proceeding; the Peshitta condenses this into the single suffixed form ܡܢܗ ('from it/him'), while the Vulgate omits any resumptive 'from him' altogether, regarding de homine as sufficient.

Greek demonstrative ἐκεῖνά ('those') and Latin illa are single words; the Peshitta uses the doubled pronoun ܗܘ ܗܘ, a Syriac emphatic/resumptive construction marking the predicate, which functions demonstratively here.

The copula ἐστιν / sunt is overt in Greek and Latin; Syriac supplies no separate verb, the predication being carried by the doubled pronoun ܗܘ ܗܘ already counted, a regular nominal-sentence pattern in Syriac.

Greek uses articular participle τὰ κοινοῦντα ('the things that defile') and Latin a relative clause quæ communicant; the Peshitta renders with the bare participle ܡܣܝܒ ('defiling'), lacking the explicit relative-article head present in the other two traditions.

All three name the object 'the man,' but the Peshitta uses the two-word emphatic-state collocation ܠܒܪ ܐܢܫܐ (literally 'son of man'/'the human being'), the standard Syriac idiom for 'a person,' whereas Greek τὸν ἄνθρωπον and Latin hominem use a single noun. The trailing pilcrow (¶) in the Greek marks paragraph closure and carries no semantic weight.
