Some New Covenant words are changed from Greek to their equivelant Hebrew, this is justified by comparing the Greek Septuagent translation of the Hebrew Masoretic text for the same word used. | (Gen 1:1) B'resheet ·In the beginning of the beginning· |

MarYah and I AM | Aramaic Peshitta, New Covenant in Aramaic, has specific reference to Master Yahweh and the same I Am affirmation as in Exodus 4. This is unique from the Greek word for “lord” that makes no distinction between human ruler and God. This has been inserted in the Gospels where it appears by the witness of three Peshitta translations. Sometimes these words are applied in reference to Messiah. | (Matt 1:22) Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by MarYah [Master Yahweh] through the prophet, then quoting Isaiah 7:14. |
