[Me] "blatantly obvious that much was lost in translation from Hebrew to Aramaic and then to Greek."

"I'm sure it must be out there somewhere," is proof of nothing.

What I state above, is not difficult to prove as I and others have done so already by showing where the actual name of Yeshua was corrupted. There are plenty of other examples.

What I said is I couldn't "produce personally", Hebrew texts older than the Greek translations. That doesn't mean they don't exist somewhere either knowingly or waiting to be discovered. Nor does it mean there isn't (and there is) circumstantial evidence leading to the original message being in Hebrew.

On another thread I posted links to a presentation my a the Hebrew Scholar Nehemiah Gordon presenting just such evidence. Glad to go dig 'em out for you if you are actually interested in pursuing this...

>>Also, who knows what is hidden away.<<

It’s sad you don’t see the real meaning of the words you use to support the beliefs you have.

?
”Reverse engineering”?
”Couldn’t produce personally”? ” waiting to be discovered”? ” circumstantial evidence”?

Those are your support words for claiming what you claim and believe in? Seriously Errant, you need to step back and see how flimsy the foundations of your beliefs are.

Nehemiah Gordon? The guy who denies Christ is the Messiah or that any Messiah has appeared?

A truth claim without evidence is a slogan.

I see no evidence of "corruption." Perhaps you mistook it for transliteration.

"There could be Hebrew or Aramaic originals, out there somewhere" fails to be convincing.

What's the holdup? If you have the evidence I asked for, by all means, post it. Put your cards on the table.
