| Certainly another argument in favor of the reliability of the Greek mss/language is that in several occasions NT authors choose to quote the OT from the Greek rather than the Hebrew. Paul, at least, didn't see any reason to avoid the LXX. I'd be interested to know what the Aramaic only crew says in rebuttal to that. Surely they have to address it. I guess they could argue that Paul quoted from the Greek back into Aramaic when he wrote his original epistles. Strange nevertheless.
On another note, Contra Marcion, I thought you did the right thing from a teaching/pastoral perspective in how you handled the Sunday School discussion.
