There Is No Evidence That the Disciples Ever Studied Greek HOW then can such ignorant men write in Greek? Impossible! 8. Let us remember that even the top four most-often named disciples were plain fishermen and were derisively derided by the Sanhedrin as “ uneducated and untrained men” ( Acts 4:13). Christ’s Disciples Were Not Knowledgeable in Greek It is absolutely illogical and unreasonable for them to suddenly write to their fellow Hebrew audience in a foreign hated language (Greek)! It’s like a true-blooded American writing to a large American audience using the Russian language! 7. And we’ve already seen that the native language of Yahshua (Jesus) was Aramaic. Their primary audience were also Hebrews who also spoke Aramaic. Hebrew-Aramaic Was Also the Native Language of All Christ’s DisciplesĪll of Christ’s disciples were Hebrews who also spoke Aramaic.

The two stated Christian films were “ The Passion of the Christ” and “ Risen.” 6.

Two relatively recent movies - in consultation with noted top historians to precisely re-create the original scenario in Jerusalem at the time of Christ on earth - used Aramaic in their movie dialogue. Sadly, popular Christian teaching deceitfully wants us to believe that Greek was their common language, which is also the false reason given to support the erroneous belief that Greek was the original language of the New Testament. Hebrew-Aramaic Was Actually the Common Language in First-Century JudeaĪll honest historians agree that Christ and his disciples commonly spoke in Aramaic, which was also the common language in all Judea and surrounding regions in the first century. This led to Paul’s arrest and imprisonment. The great Jewish aversion toward the Greeks (especially on religious matters) is reflected and recorded by the gospel writer and historian Luke in that violent incident where an angry Jewish mob developed upon the false report that Paul brought Greeks with him in his temple worship during his last visit to Jerusalem ( Acts 21:27-29). I have also taken a great deal of pains to obtain the learning of the Greeks, and understand the elements of the Greek language … I cannot pronounce Greek with sufficient exactness for our nation does NOT encourage those that learn the languages of many nations … because they look upon this sort of accomplishment as common … But they give him the testimony of being a wise man who is fully acquainted with our laws … as there have been many who have done their endeavors with great patience to obtain this learning, there have yet hardly been so many as two or three that have succeeded therein, who were immediately well rewarded for their pains (emphases mine). Josephus, the first-century Jewish priest-historian, reflects the common negative attitude of the Jews toward the Greeks when he said: Is it now logical to believe that God (for no apparent reason) suddenly changed His mind ( Malachi 3:6) and surprisingly began to use Greek - a completely foreign language - to write the New Testament? Such absurd thinking presents lots of problematic difficulties. He even had the Old Testament written primarily in this language. It’s also the language He used to speak to all the patriarchs and prophets. It’s the language in which the Ten Commandments were written by God’s own finger. God used this language to speak to all the Israelites at Mt. God talked to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden in what later became known as the Hebrew language. Here now are the 25 Solid Facts Proving that Greek Cannot Be the Original New Testament Language: 1. NOTE: Unless you have already read it, please READ FIRST the fully documented article on this website as a suggested primer: “ The Amazing Hebrew Language History Since Eden.” This will give you a solid understanding of the God-inspired history of the Semitic languages. Not only that, but most may have already been influenced - sadly and unwittingly - by the strong effect of the statement: “ A lie repeated often enough is eventually believed as true.” Whether factual or not, this quote is commonly attributed to Adolf Hitler’s propagandist, Joseph Goebbels. He who answers a matter before he hears it, it is folly and shame to him. In this regard, let us wisely and patiently apply the advice of King Solomon when he said: This is a very shocking article that goes contrary to what is commonly taught and popularly believed in this modern Christian world.īut before making a prematurely negative judgment, please lay aside first any bias and prejudice, and open-mindedly examine the FACTS that will be presented here in a logical and objective manner - backed-up by overwhelming solid evidence, both external and internal.
