Language of Christ
#3
Bishme lalaha Rahmana Rhima,

Shlama Sniper,

Quote:Syriac is simply another dialect of Aramaic. There would be differences between Syriac and Galilean but they were mutually intelligible. The main differences would probably be some occasional unique words, unique pronunciations, and slightly different grammar. Probably about as different as British English from American English. Different dialect, same language.

Yeah, I understand this. Many threads here had discussed about this. But for another people whom don't know Aramaic/Syriac would be confused since another group of Aramaic people promote how different they are (Aramaic Peshitta dialect and Galilean dialect) and maybe the people would assume
that the Galilean dialect more Jewish rather than another Aramaic dialects (Arameans/Assyrians)

Quote:Eventually scholars began to use it mainly for the dialect of the Peshitta.

Akhi Sniper, as we know from Akhi Younan site here that His Holiness Mar Eshai Shimun, Catholicos Patriarch of the Church of the East, Mar Eshai Shimun said that "With reference to....the originality of the Peshitta text, as the Patriarch and Head of the Holy Apostolic and Catholic Church of the East, we wish to state, that the Church of the East received the scriptures from the hands of the blessed Apostles themselves in the Aramaic original, the language spoken by our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and that the Peshitta is the text of the Church of the East which has come down from the Biblical times without any change or revision."

Why do another groups of Aramaic still dispute about these? Is it about the oldest manuscripts of Aramaic Peshitta?


Quote:Using the Comprehensive Aramaic Lexicon, you can actually compare Galilean and Syriac. It's fascinating!


Yes, I use this tool so far. <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->
