If you live in the United States specially you can find Assyrian churhces of The Holy Apostolic Catholic (meaning Universal not Roman) and you can participate in the Holy Mass so you can experience how it feels to hear and listen to how Christ spoke and how the language is still alive with the Assyrians .

As an Assyrian who has grown up in the Church of the East which is fully in old aramaic I can truly say there is no other church that compares. I’ve been to endless different churches and none of them have the same feeling that I get from saying and hearing the prayers and Bible in aramaic. Even the alphabet has a special power that you can feel. It is after all the language Jesus spoke 🙏🏼
Do you call your Assyrian language, Lishanakh Ashuraya, and your alphabet, Ktav Ashurit, Aramaic just because you think Jesus spoke Aramaic? In that case you can be sure that you are wrong, Jesus did not speak this language you fanatical Christian Khmarta brate dakhmare.

There are Syriac and Chaldean Christians - both Orthodox and Catholic - in the Middle East whose liturgy is in Aramaic. These are endangered communities we should pray for and support.
So those christian in india are middle eastern origin, i mean their paternal forefathers were syrian just like there are people like anglo-indian, portuguese-indian christians who marry within their own community even though their forefathers were foreigners and intermarried with local women and these communities were born different from rest of the population? @@AtourinaAssyrian

Today, there are Indian Christians who are known as Saint Thomas Christians and they still pray using "aramaic" (more accurately East Syriac (Assyrian) accent, others use the west Syriac (Assyrian) accent and a group who became Catholic following many massacres committed by the Portuguese who invaded with the Vatican. The story of the faith of those Indian Christians is a tragedy how they were divided even though at first they all belonged to The Church of The East also known as The Holy Apostolic Catholic (meaning Universal and not Roman Catholic) Assyrian Church of The East which is the first church which was founded by Saint Thomas outside Jerusalem in the land of Ashur (known today as Iraq) where the Assyrians (the original people) ambraced the teachings of Christ as well as the little Kingdom of Urhay (Edessa in Greek and today known as Urfa in Turkey). That Assyrian Kingdom which was the last outside Ashur, its King Abgar Okama V also accepted the teachings and Christ sent him two of His Apostles Mar Addai (know as Thaddaeus in the west) and Mar Mari (the two Apostles in the tradition of The Church of The East are the teachers of the East). The Church of The East was responsible for spreading the teachings of Christ before any other Church as far as China, Japan, Soumatra, even what was known as the former Soviet Union states. This Church has endured many Genocides and Massacres for the faith and its followers are still oppressed till today both in Syria and Iraq, their lands are being confiscated by kurds and arabs in order to obliterate their existence even with the few villages and towns where they try to continue to live on their ancestral lands.

The Church also had a large presence in Persia at one time before the persecutions began in the 4th century A.D. The followers of this Great Church continue to try to live their ethnicity and faith even through all the persecutions, slaughtering and the attempts to push them out of their ancestral lands and the history of Assyrians after Christianity is being hidden by those who do not want for the Assyrians to obtain their legitimate rights in their ancestral lands in equality with the invaders who live there today.

My people still speak Aramaic. We call our selves “Suraaye” and we inhabit Mesopotamia. My family is from the Nineveh Plains, a land that is home to many Suraaye(plural, Suraaya singular). We are from the Village of “Alqosh”. It is a very significant village biblically speaking. It holds the tomb of Nahum, the 7th of 12 minor prophets. We use the Syriac font of Aramaic which is sometimes referred to as middle Aramaic. ܫܠܡܐ ܘܚܘܒ ܡܢ ܐܠܩܘܫ, ܩܝܡ ܠܗ ܡܪܢ. שלמא וחוב מן אלקוש, קים לה מרן. Shlāmā wa’ħob min Alqosh, qīm leh māran. “Peace and love from Alqosh, he has risen Our Lord.
So, last year, I set out to learn Biblical Aramaic. I didnt really know how I was gonna do it. I got BBA and watched Callaham teach through BABI on Daily Dose of Aramaic, so I ended up buying BABI as well. Having the broad brushstrokes of BABI and the detailed exercises of BBA were great compliments to each other. Since I finished both text books, I have worked through Hughnegard and Lambdin's Intro. to Aramaic of Targum Onkelos and Stevenson's Grammar of Palestsnian Jewish Aramaic. Now I am a few chapters shy of completeing Genesis of Targum Onkelos (currently in chapter 45). All that to say, I think you are off to a great start and it won't be hard to keep progressing, should you want to.
I was able to find Aramaic language new testament from The Way International, and they also produce a concordance and lexicon for the new testament as well. Still looking for an aramaic old testament translation
Gorgias press has an Old Testament Peshitta series they've done, which includes both the Syriac Serta and an English translation. Only downside is that the books are split into separate volumes.
Regarding the Basics of Biblical Arameic Grammar and the incomplete paradigms that it contains, this is always bothered me about this grammar. All of the missing forms from these paradigm charts at the end of their textbook are actually perfectly well-known, they are just in other Aramaic sources. As noted at the beginning of this video, the biblical Aramaic corpus is truly very small, but the actual number of Aramaic texts that existed from the Arameans and during the Persian Empire is positively enormous. All said, I think that by leaving the forms blank at the end of their grammar, it can create the impression for some students that we simply don't know what these forms were, even though I think the authors were trying to help students by not giving them additional forms to memorize that they won't see in the biblical corpus. In the end, however, I think this is just more confusing and it forces students to have to consult additional grammars if they want to read anything outside of the small number of texts from the Old Testament. I think it does a disservice to students.
I have both the Tanach, including the half of Daniel and other verses that are in Aramaic, and the Peshitta NT. The language changed in the intervening centuries. The emphatic plural (Aramaic uses the emphatic state instead of the definite state) -aya became -e in the Peshitta, written א, same as the emphatic singular. As that had become the most common state of nouns, and vowel points hadn't been invented yet, they started writing two horizontal dots, called "syame", on top of a word to mark it plural. (The edition I have, Aramaic English New Testament, is fully vowel-pointed.) Spelling also changed. "I was seeing" is חזה הוית /ħaze haweiθ/ (Daniel 7:2) in the Tanakh and חזא הוית /ħaze hawiθ/ (from memory, I tried to find it but didn't) in the Peshitta. Sin is written ש in the Tanakh, ס in the Peshitta.
Where do you get access to the original Bible parchments - as is? Is there a book available or a series of books that state where these parchments are or is there a website that has all the references digitized? I have seen the Septuagint and Vaticanus, but I want to see the originals if possible. I would like to find a book to provides sources for all biblical texts (ALL) that show where we derive ALL our translations from. I'd like to go to the original documents to do my own translations from AGH to American English.
@@roberthoke42 you would have to get a text-critical edition of whichever part of the Bible you're wanting. There are literally THOUSANDS of manuscripts of the Biblical texts, so it's impossible to collect them all in any format. In terms of the NT, the Center for the Study of New Testament Mansucripts has the largest digitized (and free!) collection that I'm aware of.
JM, could you consider producing a video exploring the practices and beliefs of street preachers, particularly those identifying as non-denominational Christians? These individuals often adopt a confrontational stance, accusing others of sinfulness and warning of damnation without repentance. This approach can come across as self-righteous, implying a "holier than thou" attitude. While acknowledging that sin represents a transgression against divine law and moral principles, the question arises: How should one engage with such groups that dismiss the legitimacy of other Christians, positioning themselves as the sole adherents of true Christianity?
Do either of these books have (or do you have a recommendation) of a good reference to how to handwrite the letters? I like to be able to write letters and words to hrlp me remember things, but with Hebrew/Aramaic I seem to get stuck because everything I usually see uses some sort of typeface or seems to require a brush pen.
I wish to learn Aramaic because it is the language Jesus spoke with, administered his ministry and performed miracles. It is the language Jesus used to teach his disciples the Lord's Prayer. There are around 12000 errors in the transcription of the Bible that is written in English. Some are glaringly contentious. Aramaic brings us closer to the truth about Jesus. I think it is also the way Jesus will prefer.
@@rathinbanerjee7136 that is...not true. Aramaic does not "bring us closer to the truth about Jesus," because none of His Apostles wrote in Aramaic and we only have a few words in Aramaic in the New Testament. Beware of semi-gnostic approaches to the languages.
Hebrew and Aramaic are very close languages. They are sisters languages. Same family roots. Aramaic has layers. The old Aramaic is written in the old bible. In modern Hebrew we use words and phrases in Aramaic. In the Jewish wedding the rabai is blassing in Aramaic. And in Jewish funeral the rabai is praying in Aramaic.
עבד is a false friend, not a false cognate. The Hebrew and Aramaic words come from the same West Semitic word. שקל is a false friend and false cognate; the Hebrew means "weigh", the Aramaic means "pick up" or "carry", and the Aramaic cognate of Hebrew שקל is תקל, as in מנא מנא תקל ופרסין. Hebrew צ can correspond to Aramaic ע or ק at different stages of the language. This indicates that it was a distinct sound, at least at first, though written with the same letter. I suspect /ɢ/.
Cool. Just amazed by what God has me stumbling across these days! The last days? For sure. I am just amazed and discussed at the same time as to how much there is to know about my Lord and Savior Jesus that I have been so completely unaware of.😞 My amazement is to how God has been revealing Himself to me ❤️🙌🎚️ and my discust is learning all the many ways Satan has been deceiving me/us from day one! 😞😡 Praise God Holy and most high! Praise Jesus the Son of the most high! ❤️🙌🎚️
Hebrew was Revived through Arabic grammar and basics vocab substitutes as a framework by scholars such as Moses ben Maimon who spoke arabic as his mother's tongue. Without Arabic unfortunately Hebrew would of stayed dead.
@@AtourinaAssyrianIn fact, there never was any "Aramaic" language. Christian fanatics have renamed the Assyrian language for their Jesus because his maternal uncles were Aramaic. But the Arameans themselves spoke Assyrian and wrote in Assyrian letters. They never managed to have a language of their own (compare with the qerds, they number in the millions - and receive the support of the entire Christian West despite the fact that they persecute the Christian Assyrians - but speaks Persian.)
I have, I’m Assyrian and my mother tongue is aramaic. I live in the UK and find so many old words that are the same as ours and that is simply because aramaic is so old that it has influenced many languages worldwide.
Ther is no connection between Irish and Hebrew/Aramaic its just that Europeans borrow some words and pherces from Hebrew like German pherece "tuho waboho" wich is word in biblical Hebrew is "תוהו וובוהו" literly mean cheos,void wich is probably influenced ether by Yiddish wich spoken in Jewish community's wich live in Europe for hundreds of years or by some Christian Scholers wich singel words my be in but by no means Irish or any Europeans languages is related to Hebrew or Aramaic..@@kurtremislettmyr7108
The only Aramaic New Testaments in the East were either translated from Coptic or Greek, correct? If so, learning Aramaic doesn't seem particularly helpful although learning more about the underlying meaning of verses and passages would be helpful. It's interesting to note, especially for anyone who thinks the Bible is the "Word of God," that we do not have Yeshua's actual words. None with I think the exception of something he uttered while on the cross
@@DiscipleDojo interesting because Yeshua spoke and taught in Aramaic yet the Hebrew Bible was written in Hebrew (Are there certain books that were authored in Aramaic?).
Parts of Daniel and Ezra-Nehemiah, as well as a couple of other verses in the OT are in Aramaic. Rabbinic writings are also in Aramaic, but those are after the time of Jesus.
@@DiscipleDojo Thanks! I do wonder the extent to which Yeshua may have been influenced by such literature. Did he cite the Book of Daniel and its Son of Man? Scholars debate whether he was apocalyptic...
Why would you do that, besides the language is completely extinct. What you and others call "Aramaic" is in fact Assyrian (Ashurit, Ktav Ashurit) and nothing else.
Not at all. You can learn any language you want and understand your Bible as it pleases you. I am only against you calling my Assyrian letters (Ktav Ashurit) and my Assyrian language (Lishanan Ashuraya) for Aramaic just to please your God Jesus.@@DiscipleDojo
bro assyrian is a dialect of accadian and was written in cuneiform. syriac (late aramaic) and its daughter languages still spoken today (neo-aramaic) have absofuckinglutely nothing to do with 'assyrian'.. i respect your identity but please don't push it on lingustics..
You may be a brilliant linguist and Khmara brone Dakhmare, but you first need much more to realize the extent of the attacks on the Assyrians and their identity. Akkadian developed from the sumerical cuneiform script and from Akkadian developed Assyrian then Hebrew and later Arabic. "Syriac and Aramaic" are inventions of radical Christian fanatics to mutilate the Assyrian identity, and this mutilation and falsification has been going on for nearly two thousand years.@@bamdadkhan
the fact that the writers of the nt were jews i can't believe they wrote in greek doesn't make sense and a lot of untranslated hebrew aramaic words in nt shows me they are copies from hebrew originals this greek thing was probably part of romes removing all things jewish possible.
No. Diaspora Jews spoke Greek for hundreds of years before Jesus. It was the common language throughout the Greco-Roman empires. There was no anti-Jewish plot, it was simply the international language that Jews all over the known world could understand (as well as everyone else). That's why the NT was written in Greek.

This approach can come across as self-righteous, implying a "holier than thou" attitude. While acknowledging that sin represents a transgression against divine law and moral principles, the question arises: How should one engage with such groups that dismiss the legitimacy of other Christians, positioning themselves as the sole adherents of true Christianity?

Do either of these books have (or do you have a recommendation) of a good reference to how to handwrite the letters? I like to be able to write letters and words to hrlp me remember things, but with Hebrew/Aramaic I seem to get stuck because everything I usually see uses some sort of typeface or seems to require a brush pen.
I wish to learn Aramaic because it is the language Jesus spoke with, administered his ministry and performed miracles. It is the language Jesus used to teach his disciples the Lord's Prayer. There are around 12000 errors in the transcription of the Bible that is written in English. Some are glaringly contentious. Aramaic brings us closer to the truth about Jesus. I think it is also the way Jesus will prefer.
@@rathinbanerjee7136 that is...not true. Aramaic does not "bring us closer to the truth about Jesus," because none of His Apostles wrote in Aramaic and we only have a few words in Aramaic in the New Testament. Beware of semi-gnostic approaches to the languages.
Good Sunday morning! I'm trying to learn HEBREW ! May I sag I love you're videos I'm learning things in a different way thank you❤🙏🙏🐦
Hebrew and Aramaic are very close languages. They are sisters languages. Same family roots. Aramaic has layers. The old Aramaic is written in the old bible. In modern Hebrew we use words and phrases in Aramaic. In the Jewish wedding the rabai is blassing in Aramaic. And in Jewish funeral the rabai is praying in Aramaic.

עבד is a false friend, not a false cognate. The Hebrew and Aramaic words come from the same West Semitic word. שקל is a false friend and false cognate; the Hebrew means "weigh", the Aramaic means "pick up" or "carry", and the Aramaic cognate of Hebrew שקל is תקל, as in מנא מנא תקל ופרסין.
Hebrew צ can correspond to Aramaic ע or ק at different stages of the language. This indicates that it was a distinct sound, at least at first, though written with the same letter. I suspect /ɢ/.
Cool. Just amazed by what God has me stumbling across these days! The last days? For sure. I am just amazed and discussed at the same time as to how much there is to know about my Lord and Savior Jesus that I have been so completely unaware of.😞 My amazement is to how God has been revealing Himself to me ❤️🙌🎚️ and my discust is learning all the many ways Satan has been deceiving me/us from day one! 😞😡 Praise God Holy and most high! Praise Jesus the Son of the most high! ❤️🙌🎚️
Super. I like it even better than Hebrew. Like estrangela letters better than Square Aramaic. Slama!
You are missing an important language, Arabic. I speak Arabic if and am trying to learn Aramaic because it is so similar to Arabic.
Hebrew was Revived through Arabic grammar and basics vocab substitutes as a framework by scholars such as Moses ben Maimon who spoke arabic as his mother's tongue. Without Arabic unfortunately Hebrew would of stayed dead.
Aramaic is the root language of Arabic, hence the similarities. 🙏🏼
if i were you id stick to aramaic only becuase its a original version of the laungage so youll be learning from square one
@@AtourinaAssyrianIn fact, there never was any "Aramaic" language. Christian fanatics have renamed the Assyrian language for their Jesus because his maternal uncles were Aramaic. But the Arameans themselves spoke Assyrian and wrote in Assyrian letters. They never managed to have a language of their own (compare with the qerds, they number in the millions - and receive the support of the entire Christian West despite the fact that they persecute the Christian Assyrians - but speaks Persian.)
Have you seen the similarities between gaelic Irish and Hebrew?
I have not. I don't know anything about Gaelic Irish, I'm afraid.

I have, I’m Assyrian and my mother tongue is aramaic. I live in the UK and find so many old words that are the same as ours and that is simply because aramaic is so old that it has influenced many languages worldwide.
@@AtourinaAssyrian or, Irish and arameic have the same root.
Ther is no connection between Irish and Hebrew/Aramaic its just that Europeans borrow some words and pherces from Hebrew like German pherece "tuho waboho" wich is word in biblical Hebrew is "תוהו וובוהו" literly mean cheos,void wich is probably influenced ether by Yiddish wich spoken in Jewish community's wich live in Europe for hundreds of years or by some Christian Scholers wich singel words my be in but by no means Irish or any Europeans languages is related to Hebrew or Aramaic..@@kurtremislettmyr7108
The only Aramaic New Testaments in the East were either translated from Coptic or Greek, correct? If so, learning Aramaic doesn't seem particularly helpful although learning more about the underlying meaning of verses and passages would be helpful. It's interesting to note, especially for anyone who thinks the Bible is the "Word of God," that we do not have Yeshua's actual words. None with I think the exception of something he uttered while on the cross
Aramaic is for the study of the Old Testament, not the New Testament.
@@DiscipleDojo interesting because Yeshua spoke and taught in Aramaic yet the Hebrew Bible was written in Hebrew (Are there certain books that were authored in Aramaic?).
Parts of Daniel and Ezra-Nehemiah, as well as a couple of other verses in the OT are in Aramaic. Rabbinic writings are also in Aramaic, but those are after the time of Jesus.
@@DiscipleDojo Thanks! I do wonder the extent to which Yeshua may have been influenced by such literature. Did he cite the Book of Daniel and its Son of Man? Scholars debate whether he was apocalyptic...

Why would you do that, besides the language is completely extinct. What you and others call "Aramaic" is in fact Assyrian (Ashurit, Ktav Ashurit) and nothing else.
@@AxelMegaton are you seriously asking why a Bible teacher would want to have a better understanding of one of the languages the Bible was written in?
Not at all. You can learn any language you want and understand your Bible as it pleases you. I am only against you calling my Assyrian letters (Ktav Ashurit) and my Assyrian language (Lishanan Ashuraya) for Aramaic just to please your God Jesus.@@DiscipleDojo
bro assyrian is a dialect of accadian and was written in cuneiform. syriac (late aramaic) and its daughter languages still spoken today (neo-aramaic) have absofuckinglutely nothing to do with 'assyrian'.. i respect your identity but please don't push it on lingustics..
You may be a brilliant linguist and Khmara brone Dakhmare, but you first need much more to realize the extent of the attacks on the Assyrians and their identity.
Akkadian developed from the sumerical cuneiform script and from Akkadian developed Assyrian then Hebrew and later Arabic. "Syriac and Aramaic" are inventions of radical Christian fanatics to mutilate the Assyrian identity, and this mutilation and falsification has been going on for nearly two thousand years.@@bamdadkhan

the fact that the writers of the nt were jews i can't believe they wrote in greek doesn't make sense and a lot of untranslated hebrew aramaic words in nt shows me they are copies from hebrew originals this greek thing was probably part of romes removing all things jewish possible.
No. Diaspora Jews spoke Greek for hundreds of years before Jesus. It was the common language throughout the Greco-Roman empires. There was no anti-Jewish plot, it was simply the international language that Jews all over the known world could understand (as well as everyone else). That's why the NT was written in Greek.
@@DiscipleDojo well there are a lot of hebrew manuscripts being found in the vatican ete
