Image of the Lords prayer in Aramaic
#2
bescot Wrote:Hello everybody God Bless you. I am new to this forum. I am seeking an image of Galilean dialect Aramaic script of the Lords prayer. Can anybody point me in the right direction or let me have one thank you.

Welcome to the forum.

I am not sure if we know what the galilean dialect was, but probably it was influened by the Assyrian dialect (due to the history of that area witn assyria). The assyrian dialect is sometimes called imperial Aramaic. This was different (maybe slighty) to the judean dialect due to the judeans being taken to babylon, and this incorporating the babylonian dialect.. Mark chapter 15 in the peshitta shows both dialects.

Did you want the script most likey used at that time?

There is an argument that it might have been estrangela script, as there is an inscription from 6 AD I(from Edessa not galilee though) which is said to have used the "rounded" script, but I have seen this contested too , and Im not competent to judge.

Others here can probably correct what i have said but its in the right direction I think but maybe not be exactly right.
