The Language Spoken by JESUS

maic was the. usual language of converse
ton, though Greek was freely used.
Jesus Himself quotes from the Psalms in
the classical Hebrew when He is on The cross.
and exclaims, Lama sabachtani! why
hast Thou forsaken mel" just as mod
preacher might quote a special pass
age of Holy Writ In the original 1t was we'll
known to those around Him, for the Psalms
were favorite reading with the Jews in the
synagogues. and the Book of Psalms was the
prayer book of the Second Temple.
1t is true that the New Testament has
come down to us only IN Greek. but 1t is
more than possible that the reason for writ
ing the Gospels in Greek was that they might
be understood, not only in Palestine, but by
the Gentiles abroad to whom the Apostles
went out
It is therefore more than probable that
Jesus spoke Aramac, especially as He ad-
dressed himself chiefly to the poorer classes
who would hardly have known Greek in His
day. 1t was the language of the highly
educated and more fashionable. But He must
have known Greek also, for He mixed with
all kinds and classes of people and argued
even with those who affected the new learn
ing.
It may be fairly assumed that Jesus would
want to speak In that language which would
be most generally understood by the rank
and file of the people. and that was the
Aramaic. the language most like the classical
Hebrew of the Bible

carrier.
All this comes about because the mail is
regarded as a more or less sacred matter.
The United States laws are extremely strict
about interfering with mail, delaying mail,
stealing mail, or even opening letter which
is not addressed to you. The letter-carrier
Is the representative of the great United
States Government While he is engaged in
his duty of custodian of mail, the Govern.
ment guards him with as jealous care as it
does a Cabinet officer. The Secret Service
detectives of the Government are always
ready to rush out and arrest anybody who
disturbs a postman, and United States Dis
trict Attorneys and United States Judges will
give immediate attention to any case in
volving an attack upon a letter-carrier II
it once becomes understood that letter-car
riers can be attacked or interfered with or
robbed of their mail, then the whole security
and sacredness of the mail is DESTROYED
And this is the reason why the great Fedora
Government, with all it's resources stands
behind its pcstmen
Not only Is the postman jealousy guarded
from personal assault by the Government
but II you have dog that worries the post
man, or that he fears may attack him. he
