Greek NT Καὶ
Peshitta ܘܟܕ
Vulgate Et

Greek uses καί followed by a genitive absolute participle (ἐξελθόντος αὐτοῦ), while the Peshitta renders the temporal clause analytically with ܘܟܕ ('and when') plus a finite verb. The Vulgate Et + dative participle (exeunti ei) follows the Greek participial syntax more closely.

Greek NT ἐξελθόντος αὐτοῦ
Peshitta ܢܦܩ
Vulgate exeunti ei

The Greek genitive absolute ἐξελθόντος αὐτοῦ and the Latin dative absolute exeunti ei both retain an explicit subject pronoun, whereas the Syriac finite verb ܢܦܩ encodes the third-person subject morphologically and needs no separate pronoun.

Greek NT εὐθὺς
Vulgate statim

The Greek εὐθύς and Latin statim ('immediately'), a Markan stylistic hallmark, have no equivalent in the Peshitta here, which omits the adverb entirely.

Greek NT αὐτῷ
Peshitta ܒܗ

The Greek dative αὐτῷ and the Syriac prepositional ܒܗ ('him') express the object of the meeting verb, but the Vulgate occurrit leaves the indirect object implicit without a separate pronoun.

Greek NT τῶν μνημείων
Peshitta ܒܝܬ ܩܒܘܪܐ
Vulgate monumentis

Greek ἐκ τῶν μνημείων and Latin de monumentis both use the plural 'tombs'; the Syriac ܒܝܬ ܩܒܘܪܐ literally 'house of burial' is an idiomatic compound for the burial-ground or cemetery, a typical Aramaic construct phrase.

Greek NT ἐν πνεύματι ἀκαθάρτῳ
Peshitta ܕܐܝܬ ܒܗ ܪܘܚܐ ܛܢܦܬܐ
Vulgate in spiritu immundo

Greek ἐν πνεύματι ἀκαθάρτῳ and Latin in spiritu immundo use a simple prepositional phrase ('with an unclean spirit'), whereas the Peshitta expands with a relative construction ܕܐܝܬ ܒܗ ('in whom there was') an unclean spirit, making the possession explicit and predicative.
