Mark 1 : 12

Greek places the article before πνεῦμα (τὸ πνεῦμα), maintaining standard Greek article-noun order; Peshitta ܪܘܚܐ and Vulgate Spiritus lack the article, as Syriac uses the emphatic state and Latin has no article system, but both traditions position the subject before the verb whereas Greek places it after the temporal adverb.

Greek maintains verb-final order with object preceding (αὐτὸν ἐκβάλλει); Peshitta ܐܦܩܬܗ incorporates the pronominal suffix directly onto the verb (Aphel perfect 3fs with 3ms object suffix), creating a single-token verb-object unit; Vulgate follows Greek word order (expulit eum) but with verb preceding object, reflecting Latin's freer word order conventions.

Greek uses prepositional phrase with article (εἰς τὴν ἔρημον); Vulgate mirrors this structure (in desertum) without article; Peshitta employs the preposition ܠ prefixed directly to the emphatic-state noun ܡܕܒܪܐ, a typical Syriac construction that conflates preposition and definiteness marking into a single orthographic unit.
