Gorgias Syriac Bible Project

ANNOUNCEMENT FROM GORGIAS PRESS (with special deal!):

Announcing the Surath Kthob Series: The Syriac Bible with English Translation.

Gorgias Press is pleased to announce the launch of a new series called Surath Kthob that will make available the Syriac Bible in English translation. This series will provide, for the first time, a bilingual English-Syriac edition of the whole Syriac Bible. The English translation is close to the Syriac, but is idiomatic. The Syriac text is fully vocalized and pointed with Rukkokho and Qushoyo points. This is the first time a fully vocalized and pointed edition of the Syriac Bible is published in the serto script. This tremendous undertaking is being carried out by an international team of specialists. It is expected that this project will consist of 30 volumes, with the first 4-6 volumes published in the next 12 months. The Book of Isaiah is in press and will be followed early in the summer by the Gospel of Matthew.

Gorgias is running a limited-time special subscription rate for the first 100 individual subscribers at half price. The first 100 individual subscribers will be able to lock the price of all future volumes at $75 a volume. As this is a very costly project, it is expected that the list price will be $150/volume.

Both the vocalized texts and the English translations will be very useful. Follow the link above to the Hugoye post, where there are various links about the project and the discount deal.
