The Language Jesus Spoke

The quality of the samples, and their transliteration will be carefully weighed according to their conformity and consistency with the authentic elegance of the style of the original Aramaic Jesus spoke. Thus I wrote in my original proposal before commencing the translation of the Bible. However, now I agree with the Church of the East for not translating the Bible into modern Aramaic.

When the Scriptures are transcribed into modern Hebrew or even modern Aramaic, one cannot expect the results to embody the accuracy of the original Texts. Both dialects of the original language that Abraham brought into the Holy Lands have evolved into different languages two thousand years since the time of Jesus on earth. Modern languages contain profanities that have developed with usage and new forms of expression. These cannot be permitted to reflect on the scribal language in the Scriptures. Only the scribal language, the Ancient Aramaic, is the language of Scriptures. No other language can ever take the place of the Ancient Aramaic. Furthermore, the interpretation of Scriptures in all other languages have deviated from the original sacred intents of the Bible.

Modern languages have been modified to distort the interpretation of the Scriptures, each according to their own nationalistic bias. Different interpretations have led other cultures to write their own religious texts, such as Islam, Hindu, Buddhist and the rest. Each religion develops its own texts and the secular scholars then conclude that there are common trends, stories and legends that appear in all religions; therefore, every religion is supposed to be based on delusions, mere myths without substantive ideas. This is how and why the original Ancient Aramaic Scriptures have been set aside, ignored and often abandoned completely by modern scholarship.

Of course, I can't expect secular scholarship to take an interest in the Ancient Aramaic Bible. They're too busy denying the existence of God, let alone the truth about the Messiah prophesied in the Scriptures.
