For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. (KJV)

(a) From the Peshitto we may quote the reading ܩܪܣܩܘܣ at 2 Tim. iv. 10 for Κρήσκης ; here a Syriac manuscript reads ܦܪܣܩܘܣ, perhaps followed by the Arabic (see Tisch, ad loc.). These variants are clearly due to the confusion of ܩ and ܦ. Two other instances are given by Michaelis2 from 2 Pet. ii. 17, 18, where the Erpenian Arabic (here a secondary version) makes it probable that ܡܢ ܠܥܠܐ, by which it translates υπο λαιλαντος, is a mistake for ܡܢ ܥܠܥܠܐ ; and in verse 18 ܓܘܚܘܐ (laughter), by which it translates υπερογκα, a mistake for ܓܘ ܢܚܐ .2 Marsh’s Michaelis, ii. p. 20(Ll.
