Sample Text
The twin sisters Agnes Lewis (1843-1926) and Margaret Gibson (1843-1920) were pioneering biblical scholars who became experts in a number of ancient languages. Travelling widely in the Middle East, they made several significant discoveries, including one of the earliest manuscripts of the Four Gospels in Syriac, a dialect of Aramaic, the language probably spoken by Jesus himself. Their chief discoveries were made in the Monastery of St Catherine on Mount Sinai. This work is Gibson's notes on the translations of Romans, Corinthians and Ephesians into Arabic from the Greek and a transcription by Gibson of a manuscript discovered by Lewis in the monastery in 1892 and published in 1894 of Ephesians, believed to date from the ninth century.
