Notice the title of Kiraz, George A., and Andreas Juckel, eds. The Syriac Peshiṭta Bible with English Translation: Lamentations, Prayer of Jeremiah, Epistle of Jeremiah and Epistles of Baruch. Translated by Gillian Greenberg and Donald M. Walter. Antioch Bible. Piscataway, NJ: Gorgias Press, 2013. which is a volume of the Antioch Bible.

Yet, only Lamentations is within the field "Bible text" while the remainder is within "Content text". This is in direct conflict with the view of those who preserved and translated these texts as "Bible". FL did a good job of addressing this issue with the LXX. Now they need to show the same respect to the ancient Peshitta text.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
