I personally DON'T feel that the gibberish that I've heard in most Pentecostal churches is what "speaking in tongues" is really about.
I believe that speaking in Tongues exist today, but I also believe that it's rare.
Bauscher WAS WRONG in his translation. Ryan, I Love you like a Brother, but I still feel that Dave screwed up BIG TIME in his "translation".
I think that "TONGUES" is one Aramaic word, and "languages" is another.
Bauscher "translated" like he BELIEVED. Big mistake.
If I can get my wife to type it for me, I'll post 1st. Cornth. from The Way International's Aramaic/English New Testament tonight, if not, tomorrow sometime.
Spyridon, stick around and LEARN from reading and asking questions here.........there are A LOT of different and differing voices here at Peshitta.org
Before you judge..........LEARN.

Spyridon Wrote:The Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches traditionally believe that speaking in tongues was a gift reserved for the first century Christians. In the Acts of the Apostles, the Apostles weren't speaking random gibberish, but speaking actual human languages to share the Gospel, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Pentecostalism is a contemporary movement, lacking support in Christian tradition.

If this is the best criticism one can have, then I know it's a good translation.
