Publisher's Synopsis
This is a translation (8th edition) of The Aramaic New Testament (Aramaic was the language of Jesus and his countrymen of 1st century Israel) in an English prose translation of The Peshitta New Testament. This translation is derived from the author's Aramaic-English Interlinear New Testament. Aramaic was used in Mel Gibson's film "The Passion of the Christ" to make the film as realistic and accurate as possible. This New Testament will surprise and thrill the reader with its power and inspiration coming from the words of "Yeshua" ("Jesus" in ancient Aramaic) as He originally spoke them, in a literal and readable English rendering. Abundant documentation of the Aramaic Peshitta as the original NT is included. 609 pages, including 209 pages of documentary notes comparing Greek and Aramaic readings to show the originality of the Aramaic and the Greek as a translation.
