Abstract
John (Old Syriac version)
is the earliest extant
translation of John (literary tradition)
into Syriac as a "separated Gospel"
(not a Gospel harmony). It was probably translated in the 4th or 5th century
(though its roots may date to the 3rd), and it predates John (Peshitta
version)
, which
ultimately replaced it in the 5th or 6th century.7
