Marijn van Putten's Book About Quranic Arabic
39:06 so, the Quranic form is more archaic than syriac form. the Same is true for the word king..... They would have borrowed the word melech,too, from syriac. but they did not!
40:20 But the aramaic in the Quran does not look like syriac at all. It is a very different and much more archaic form of aramaic.AND IT IS A REAL MYSTERY WHERE THIS KIND OF ARAMAIC IS COMING FROM.
45:30 It is not so simple. Like Muhammed wrote out and met a monk and they gave him the bushita and he spoke syriac. It is clearly not what he is doing. He is using words that don't look syriac at all but they do look aramaic. So, it is a bit of a mystery. We are still looking into this and we are trying to find and tell the story of what is going on with this.
51:00 Derek's illogical comparison of the story of the death of Jesus with the idea of monotheism.
