[Nathan Zachary]

"BTW, perhaps not all the New Testemant was originally Greek. Some scholars favor the theory that Mathew wrote his gospel in Hebrew."

Possibly. And yes Jesus did speak in Aramaic. What I meant was the complete gospel was first given in it's entirety in greek.

When Jesus walked the earth, He spoke to the Jews in their own Aramaic tongue, but even then they did not understand him because he spoke in parables .

"Do you know why you cannot take in what I say? It is because you are unable to understand my language." John 8:43

[marbren]

When Jesus said:

Satan fall like lightning from heaven

In Aramaic did it in fact sound like

satan barakobama?

Do Aramaic linguistic scholars exist today?
