Shlama all,
I recently read the article at http://teguhhindarto.blogspot.com/2012/1...0.html?m=1 (This article is in Indonesian).
My questions are:
1. The writer said (a Hebrew Primacist) that Hebrew was the original language rather than Aramaic in Galilee at 1st century. He quoted from as following information:
a. Mark Chancey and Eric M. Meyers, ?How Jewish was Sepphoris in Jesus? time? Biblical Archaelogical Review, July-August 2000, p.33.
b. Talmud, Ketuvot 52b (it is said that the Galilean wrote letters in the same way with Jerusalem people/Jews).
c. Encylopedia Judaica, Vol 7, p. 266. (the fact is the Galilean was Jews at 102 BC, the enemy would attack the town in Sabbath but the Galilean 'do nothing' ).
d. Lee I. Levine, The Ancient Synagogue, 2000, p.198: the Jerusalem Synagogue had the same architecture.
e. Bernard Spolsky and Robert L. Cooper, The Languages of Jerusalem 1991, p. 22.
f. Talmud, Eruvin 53a,b.
The last, he said the assumption that Hebrew was the language of Judea and Aramaic for Jews in Galilee is ahistory.
Tawdee for the enlightment.
