Oh my, it's worse than I thought.
Let me explain this to you: All of the Torah, and most of the rest of what Christians call "The Old Testament" was written in Hebrew. A small part of it, such as parts of the book of Daniel, was written in Aramaic, which was the common language at the time Jesus walked the earth. Without a doubt, that is the language that He used when preaching to the crowds.
The New Testament was NEVER written in Hebrew, it was written in Greek, a language that is most likely a language that Jesus knew very little of, if any. So, any New Testament in Hebrew was translated from the Greek, much later. This was done because Greek was the only language that the Word could be widely spread in, as Aramaic was only spoken in a small area of the world.
So, where was this chapter and verse, then? I was throwing that out to you, because I think you quoted an Old Testament verse, and attributed it to Jesus.
I did a careful word search, using both the KJV and the RSV, for every single verse that contained both the words "live" and "die", and I could not find it. (there were I think 72 verses that contained both)

To conclude, I'm Jewish.
Well .. in the first place, I NEVER said that the New Testament was written in Hebrew. However, since Matthew and John were writing their Gospels directly to the Jews, I would suspect they used Hebrew (or Arabic) instead of Greek. Mark wrote his book in Latin for the Romans. Luke wrote his book to the Greeks - in Greek.
Well .. in the Amplified Bible, Hebrews 9:27 says: "And just as it is appointed for [all] men once to die, and after that the [certain] judgment.
This scripture tells me that reincarnation is just not a reality.
