Jim Caviezel learned enough Aramaic to play Jesus in Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ."

I’ve always wondered how his name was actually pronounced, as Aramaic speakers. Doubt it was “Gee-zus.” In spanish speaking countries, it’s “Hey-zeus.”

The author of the piece doesn't get the whole "Jesus is God" thing. He wrote ...
Jesus probably knew enough Greek to understand it.
Ya think?

If I’m not mistaken, Maronite Catholics still use Aramaic in their liturgy - not entirely, but in select portions.

Jim Caviezel learned enough Aramaic to play Jesus in Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ." The interplay among the various languages of that time and place was one of my favorite facets of the movie. I especially loved how Jesus seamlessly switched over to speaking in Latin when he spoke privately with Pilate, and the surprise on Pilates face.

“Ive always wondered how his name was actually pronounced, as Aramaic speakers. Doubt it was Gee-zus. In spanish speaking countries, its Hey-zeus.”
According to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeshua the Aramaic name is Isho. That would make sense because I’ve seen it written in Arabic as Issa and Yeswa, probably following the Aramaic and Hebrew name.

This has been studied to extremes for many centuries - there is no reasonable doubt anymore that Jesus spoke Aramaic. He also spoke another, universal language - His message will never be allowed to successfully escape the minds of humanity! VIA, ET VERITAS, ET VITA!

Ask Maxine Waters, she knows more about religion than God.

He spoke truth.
Apparently it’s a dead language these days.

Hebrew & Aramaic is probably comparable to Church Latin & the vernacular languages in the Middle Ages. Spoken by the scribes and priesthood and kept as a type of guild secret to preserve its purity (charitable view) or to maintain power (cynical view).
The history in England of getting from the imposed and restricted Latin-language Bible to the predecessors of the King James Bible shows the absolute mania of the Church hierarchy to maintain a dependent populace and that might have been similar to Israel then. Lots of martyrs to the cause of allowing the individual to know the WORD.

A guy with the same name, but pronounced alittle different worked at Dilbert’s company for a few strips.
I think Wally betrayed him.

"There is wide consensus among scholars that Aramaic was the primary language spoken by the Jews of first century Palestine." There was no such country as Palestine in the first century and onward. Palestine was a name not a country.
