What Language did Jesus Speak?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
- Traditionally, scholars have held the position that Jesus spoke Aramaic, NOT Hebrew - but is this truly accurate? And why would many Christian experts be so unsettled by the idea that He did? In this "Ask Us Anything" video, Gateway Center for Israel Teaching Pastor David Blease examines the historical and scriptural evidence for a Hebrew-speaking Jesus.

I've been to over 75 countries with work and most people in the world are both multilingual and not necessarily highly educated. We study to learn languages in Western countries, everyone else just does it easily. Israel was highly Hellenised by 1st century. About half signs in Judea and Galilee were in Greek. That Jesus spoke Greek, Aramaic and Hebrew - i don't doubt it.
The region was at least bilingual and at places, trilingual or more: Aramaic for the Semitic rural population, Greek for the Greek speaking population (including Hellenistic Jews and Romans) , Hebrew as the liturgical language for the Temple and Latin for the Roman soldiers and administration.
For Jesus to preach to predominately Greek speaking regions of Judea, like Decapolis or Ceasarea-Phillipi and NOT speaking at least some Greek is an impossibility. Greek was so dominant, that even in the Roman Senate they frequently spoke and wrote in Greek. Jesus and the Centurion would have communicated in Greek by necessity. Jesus would have spoken to Pilate in Greek, because that was the lingua franca of the region, the language that was the common denominator for communication.
Of course, Jesus as a native Jewish person would have spoken the native language, Aramaic. Its doubtful that he would have spoken Hebrew though, at least outside of religious occasions, because there was no need: Hebrew wasn't a language spoken in everyday setting, Aramaic was the everyday language of the common people ( and Aramaic is of course closely related to Hebrew). The fact that even the Essenes had scrolls of the Torah in the Septuagint speaks volumes. Even they, the rigid, monastic fanatic sect, used the Greek translation of the scriptures and even copied them.
Its indeed mentioned that the inscription "Ιησούς Ναζωραίος Βασιλεύς Ιουδαίων" ( the INBI) inscription) was written in three languages, Greek, Latin and Hebrew, (Ελληνιστί, Ρωμαϊστί (meaning "of the Romans) , and Εβραιστί. )but it doesn't mean that was written in what's known as paleo-hebrew, but it's successor that was based on the Aramaic alphabet.
Ιn fact, that it says "ρωμαϊστί " meaning in the roman language and not Latin, it's a clue that none of the scripts are named specifically but they describe about who each script is meant to be able to be read (Ελληνιστί for the Greek speaking people, Ρωμαϊστί for the Romans and Εβραϊστί for the Jewish population).
Wikipedia for example states (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aramaic_alphabet) " By the 5th century BCE, among Judeans the alphabet had been mostly replaced by the Aramaic alphabet as officially used in the Achaemenid Empire. The "Jewish square-script" variant now known simply as the Hebrew alphabet evolved directly out of the Aramaic script by about the 3rd century BCE (although some letter shapes did not become standard until the 1st century CE). By contrast, the Samaritan alphabet, as used by Samaritans, is an immediate continuation of the Proto-Hebrew script without intermediate non-Israelite evolutionary stages. There is also some continued use of the old Hebrew script in Jewish religious contexts down to the 1st century BCE, notably in the Paleo-Leviticus text found in the Dead Sea scrolls.)
So, it's very probable that the Hebrew script written in the inscription was actually written in Aramaic alphabet and it's mentioned as Hebrew because it was a script in the language of the Jews ( The Jews are called "εβραίοι " in Greek, the Judea's are called "ιουδαίοι).
Thank you brother 🙌
Luke chapter 23 verses 38
There was a written notice above him, which read: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS
Great evidence! Thank you for making this!
Thank you for this teaching ❤
Jesus spoke Aramaic. Period. He spoke Hebrew for religious reasons. It is NOT antisemitic! Stop spreading ignorance. Christianity has the WORST record of antisemitism...
It makes sense that Jesus spoke both Aramaic and Hebrew.
@@michaelduncan672 Hebrew for religious reasons...
So you sat and conversed with Him in His primary language?
@@sondra4315 No, little lady. We studied history, literature and archeology!
@@gabrielleangelica1977
Pretty sure the video addresses that anti-Semitic bias.
Great video and much scholarship agrees with this fact.
I always thought he spoke Aramaic, Hebrew, and Greek.
If the pope says he spoke aromatic… that means he probably didn’t
Aramaic , and read Hebrew, sifrei Torah being written in Hebrew...the Church is stained with supeesseionism, and spirit of yavan ( greek, holy language of greek as many pastors and theologians say event in.the Evangelical family...astounding...sad ,.even, so so sad...
jesus knows all languages as he is the one who created them
Greek is the answer.
Iso,Isa,Yeshua,Yeshu,speak aramaic,he was not speaking greek,italian,english,spanish,he receive the Gospel in aramaic,not in english,latin,greek,spanish,he is a prophet,messenger and the messiah,he never preach people to worship him nor his mother,he preach the same message of Moshe rabbainu(Musa),Yohanan(Yahya),
David(Dawud),Shlomon,

You know it
It was Aramaic ... not Arabic

why Greek, ? Rome was in charge , did the Romans speak Greek?
In the east Greek was the language of the empire. This was because there was already a hellenic elite in places like Egypt and Syria that could easily be incorporated into the already fairly hellenized Roman empire.
@@Cognitamus this is moronic thinking. When the Romans conquered the UK as its known now, I doubt they cared what language they spoke. Going back 2000 years and giving them a language is pure ludicrous. Acting like all Romans spoke Greek is even more idiotic.
@@ephraimsimable I never said that all Roman's spoke Greek, I said that in the Eastern provinces of the empire, Greek was the language used in the institutions of the Roman empire and was the lingua franca of the east. In Britain and the rest of the west of the empire Latin was still the administrative language.
@@Cognitamus institutions? Maybe the next reply would be more narrow and specify these institutions. Greeks were not a modern society with a Job centre plus,...
My point will also go back to the Greeks when they did their conquering. Assuming that the conquered inhabitants miraculously became fluent in Greek is more lazy thinking. UK spoke Latin? In what magical world. This is another example of lazy thinking. The educated yes had access to the masters language but the rest did not. That's why when the overlords left the language died of. What was left is English with words from the other languages.
UK took over most of Africa. I guarantee you there are loads of people who do not know the English language to this day even though we have more access to languages.
I'm trying to show you how idiotic it is to assume because one empire takes over, the inhabitants of the nation will be fluent in a language.
Jesus was not a person of authority. He was a carpenters son. Probably never needed to speak any other language apart from his mother's tongue which was not Aramaic. She was a Hebrew. She spoke Hebrew. The bible was written in Hebrew.
A simple question would be how did Jesus or the people around him learn these extra languages?
You probably went to school and had 2 years of an extra language but you are no where fluent in that language. But for some reason Jesus was?
He probably picked up a few words here and there but I am 100% convinced he never spoke aramaic or Greek or any other languages at a conversational level.
Where did Mary his mother pick up the language. She didn't go to school.
Education was probably only for the Elite.
People like Paul who was a Jew in Turkey and a very important person knew this extra language. And it was not Greek. Paul was educated.
We just get told with no common sense being used.
Well, two answers. Making a long story short :
1. Why wouldn't/couldn't He? He's God.
2. Greek was the lingua-franca in 30A.D.; equivalent to as English is today. We can see Jesus most likely having a conversation in Koine-Greek with Nicodemus in John 3, Greek being the lingua-franca of the day is also why the entire NT was written in Koine-Greek. Wouldn't be a crazy idea to think Jesus could speak Greek.
Of course Jesus spoke hebrew; Acts 26:14 says so.
thank you
YOUR GOD IS UNABLE TO SPEAK ALL LANGUAGES!!!
With Jesus you can listen to music, eat bacon, pray one time a day. Best religion ever
