Harklean version

The Harklean version, designated by syr^h, is a Syriac language bible translation by Thomas of Harqel completed in 616 AD at the Enaton in Egypt. The Harklean version has close affinities with the Byzantine text-type.

The version is partly based on the earlier Philoxenian version, partly a new and very literal translation from the Greek New Testament.
