[B-Greek] OT quotations in OS & Peshitta versions of Matthew

I've just seem one of my favourite defenders of "Aramaic" priority make
the claim that in the OS and Peshitta versions of Matthew the OT
quotations that Matthew employs all conform in form and wording to the
Hebrew rather than the LXX version of the "OT".  Not having the OS or
the Peshitta readily to hand to check this claim out myself, can any one

confirm (or deny) its validity? Are the OT quotations in OS and Peshitta

Matthew not really conformed, as in most instances those in Greek
Matthew _are_ )  to what we find in the LXX. Are they really closer
in form and wording to what we find in the MT?

Yours,

Jeffrey
