NEATSB

This translation is one that may never have gotten started. NEATSB stands for New English Annotated Translation of the Syriac Bible. It is mentioned in a few articles such as this one. It is also discussed in an article or monograph titled The New English Annotated Translation of the Syriac Bible (NEATSB): Retrospect and Prospect (2004). I haven't been able to get a copy of that article. It is mentioned in a message on Yahoo here. It appears that this project was discussed or started as early as 1999. This is a project of the Peshitta Institute in Leiden at the University of Leiden, Netherlands. I've tried e-mailing some of the names mentioned in the articles with no results. As usual, if anyone knows anything about this version please e-mail me or leave a comment here.
