The Language of Jesus

Did Jesus speak primarily Hebrew or Aramaic?

Hal in Israel 2008 

Was He fluent in Greek?

Mark Roberts has several new posts on his blog this month on those subjects. His opinions differ from those of our friend Halvor Ronning and his colleagues at The Jerusalem School of Synoptic Research. I believe it is highly probable that Jesus spoke Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. Every step we get closer to understanding the cultural and social context surrounding Jesus we also get closer to hearing Him clearer than before.
