Mark 2 : 24

Greek marks the subject with the definite article (οἱ Φαρισαῖοι); the anarthrous Vulgate Pharisæi and the Syriac ܦܪܝܫܐ omit any article, the Latin lacking one categorically and Syriac expressing definiteness through the emphatic state.

All three attest the dative/preposition 'to him' (αὐτῷ / ܠܗ / ei); the Vulgate isolates the speech-introducing colon as a discrete token, whereas Greek fuses the raised dot into αὐτῷ· and Syriac leaves it unpunctuated.

Greek uses the articular prepositional phrase ἐν τοῖς σάββασιν with the neuter plural σάββατον; the Vulgate renders the plural with the simple ablative sabbatis without a preposition, while the Peshitta uses the singular emphatic ܒܫܒܬܐ with prefixed beth, a typical Syriac singular-for-plural treatment of the Sabbath.

Greek and Latin employ the bare relative pronoun (ὃ / quod, 'that which'); the Peshitta prefaces the relative ܕ- with the indefinite substantive ܡܕܡ ('something which'), an idiomatic Syriac construction that supplies an explicit antecedent absent in the other two traditions.

All attest the impersonal 'it is (not) lawful' (ἔξεστιν / ܫܠܝܛ / licet); the interrogative force is marked by the Greek question mark fused to ἔξεστιν;¶ and by the discrete Latin terminal '?', whereas the Syriac carries no graphic interrogation.
