> Aramaic primacy maintains that the native language of the apostles, Jesus, and others was aramaic, and that the translation from Aramaic texts to Greek texts can account for discrepancies such as this. This one just happens to be the most earth-shattering mistranslations in the history of religious texts.

> I own a formal analysis provided to me by one of the scholars purporting aramaic primacy.-My impression from reading primarily Jewish scholars is that it is widely accepted that Aramaic was the curent language at the time of Jesus, and that the Hebrew Pentatuch texts were translated into Aramiac and then into Greek. Why the fuss?
