omission Greek NT only

Greek NT καὶ ἐποίησεν τοὺς δώδεκα

The Greek clause καὶ ἐποίησεν τοὺς δώδεκα ('And he appointed the Twelve') is absent from both the Peshitta and Vulgate witnesses. This omission may reflect a shorter textual tradition or deliberate editorial streamlining to focus on the naming of Simon.

substitution All three attest

Greek NT καὶ

Peshitta ܘܫܡܝ

Vulgate Et

The Peshitta uses ܘܫܡܝ (wa-šammī, 'and he named'), a direct verbal form, while Greek employs καὶ ἐπέθηκεν ὄνομα ('and he placed a name') and Latin uses imposuit nomen ('he imposed a name'). The Syriac construction is more concise, collapsing the verb-object phrase into a single lexeme.

construction All three attest

Greek NT ἐπέθηκεν ὄνομα

Peshitta ܫܡܐ

Vulgate imposuit nomen

Greek places ἐπέθηκεν ὄνομα before the dative τῷ Σίμωνι; Vulgate mirrors this with imposuit...nomen before Simoni; Peshitta places ܫܡܐ (šmā, 'name') after the verb and recipient ܠܫܡܥܘܢ, reflecting standard Syriac VSO word order.

lexical All three attest

Greek NT Πέτρον

Peshitta ܟܐܦܐ

Vulgate Petrus

Greek Πέτρον and Latin Petrus both transliterate the Greek 'rock' (πέτρα); Peshitta uses ܟܐܦܐ (Kēp̄ā), the native Aramaic cognate meaning 'rock' (cf. John 1:42, Cephas). This reflects the Syriac tradition's preference for the Semitic form over Hellenistic transliteration.

punctuation Vulgate only

The Vulgate adds a colon after Petrus, marking a clause boundary before the subsequent list of apostles. Neither Greek nor Peshitta manuscripts typically employ such punctuation at this juncture.
