Miltha vs Logos

[Paul Younan]

For instance one can go and look this term up in the ancient non-christian philosophical writtings/teachings by the Greek Philosophers, who expounded and spoke on the concept...but is this true among the ancient Aramaic peoples too?

Shlama Akhi Chuck,

The word is attested to in the Hebrew scripture, it's the Hebrew cognate Millah. As early on as Genesis. It's also found in the Aramaic form, Miltha, from Masada to Persia in Jewish, Pagan and Christian writings. Biblical and secular literature uses it quite frequently for everything from the simple "word", to "matter", "manifestation", "power", "utterance" and a whole lot more.

It's usage is found in everything from biblical texts to magical incantation bowls, from royal edicts to poetry, from the NT to Rabbinical literature like the Talmud. One could literally write books about just this one topic. So yes indeed, it is very well attested to in (pre- and non-Christian) literature as an anthropomorphism.
