Mark 3 : 35

Greek uses aorist subjunctive ποιήσῃ (contingent action); Latin employs future perfect fecerit (completed future action); Syriac ܕܢܥܒܕ uses the imperfect with ܕ- prefix (habitual/modal action). These represent functionally equivalent modal constructions in their respective grammatical systems.

Greek uses the demonstrative pronoun οὗτος ('this one') as subject; Latin employs the demonstrative hic with identical function; Syriac uses the third-person plural pronoun ܗܘܝܘ ('they are'), treating the collective kinship terms as a plural subject rather than singular distributive. This reflects differing strategies for expressing generic reference.

Greek and Latin repeat the possessive pronoun with each kinship term (μου... καὶ ἀδελφὴ μου / meus... et soror mea); Syriac employs a single pronominal suffix on the conjunction ܘܚܬܝ ('and-my-sister'), a typical Semitic economy where the possessive extends across coordinated nouns without repetition.

Greek and Latin explicitly include the copula ἐστίν / est ('is'); Syriac omits the copula, relying on the nominal sentence construction typical of Semitic languages where the verb 'to be' is implied in present-tense predication. The earlier ܗܘܝܘ functions as the subject pronoun, not a copula.
