Jesus spoke Aramaic.Why are the gospels in Greek and many of the apocrypha Coptic?Is it not concerning that the translation from Aramaic to Greek could have corrupted Jesus' teachings?
>>18731912They were all written in greek.It was the lingua franca at the time
>>18731912Jesus Christ: GreekThe Talmud: Hebrew and AramaicReally makes you think
>>18731912>Why are the gospels in Greek and many of the apocrypha Coptic?Because the people who Jesus preached to, in Jerusalem, were illiterate Jews who couldn't read or write. The gospels were written almost 50 years after Jesus was already dead in the ground. They were written in Greek by Jewish hands. Pic relatedEvery gospel author is Jewish except for Luke, who himself was an acolyte of Paul the pharisee Jew. Christianity was invented so Jews can teach goyim how to adopt Semitic traditions, while attacking anyone (including themselves) for examining the Jewish nature of their traditions too closely. Some Jews don't like this so they settled on Judaism instead. Christians are larping as spiritually Jewish.
>>18731912You already know.Greek was the English of the firsr century. Greece used to be the country of scholars and education, and it was a common international bridge language for international audiences, like the target audience of the Gospels. Greek letters are still used by academics today, the smartest people today still use Greek letters, physics, math, etc. Lol.
>>18731912Jesus quotes the Greek Septuagint. Everyone who was literate wrote in the region wrote in Greek. I think the idea that we know for sure they spoke Aramaic is highly dubious.
Greek was the international language for works that are intended to be read by many nations back then.And also, by coincidence, Luke himself was Greek, but he was not one of the disciples, he was a friend Paul met in his travels, lol.
Luke's gospel is actually written in much more polished and professional Greek than the other three gospels that were written by Jews, because Luke was a native greek speaker, lol.
>>18731912>Some have claimed that by "Hebrew" Papias would have meant Aramaic, the common language of the Middle East besides Koine Greek.[4]The early Christians spoke about an original gospel of Matthew written in "Hebrew" That being said all of the 4 gospels are Pauline (to varying degrees) and so were written primarily for a gentile audience
