Best,

Akhi Yuri,
Pray tell me why, in the Greek version of the Gospel of John, are words that are said to be 'Hebrew' actually transliterations of Aramaic words?
Shlama,

Akhi Yuri,
Akhan Rob is absolutely correct. In 1st-century Israel - Aramaic was called "Hebrew", because that was the language of the "Hebrews."
We can call our language "American" - but it's really "English" that we speak - albeit a little bit different than what England speaks.
