If there is let me know. But it is vital to study the NEW testament in Hebrew, not just the OT>

I think I had once a NT translated from the Arameic with liberal footnotes. Wonder where that is.

The few word studies I've performed in the NT, the original Koine Greek(some in aramaic) is a magnificient language used to convey explicit meanings. A lot of those meanings are lost in trnaslations, especially in word by word or verse by verse translations to retain explicit direction of action and subject or reference within phrases, while retaining the original flow of thought.

I agree that also understanding Hebrew also provides significant insight in one's continuing walk or metabolized study of Scripture. I'm looking for a good Greek and Hebrew coursework presently.
