This work places the "Syriac New Testament" in the Antwerp Polyglot within a new appreciation of sixteenth century Catholic Syriac and Oriental scholarship. The Spanish antecedents of the Polyglot and the role of Arias Montano in its production are evaluated before the focus is turned upon the Northern Scholars who prepared the Syriac edition. Their motivation is shown, particularly in the case of Guillaume Postel, to derive from both Christian kabbalah - scholars such as Andreas Masius, Jean Boulaese and Guy Lefèvre de la Boderie - and an insistent eschatological timetable. The principles of Christian kabbalah found in the Polyglot are then shown to be characteristic also of Guy Lefèvre de la Boderie's 1584 Paris edition of the Syriac New Testament dedicated to Henri III.
