MessageThank you for posting your two books on the Peshitta/Aramaic on the web free of charge. I know that a lot of work went into both volumes, and I pray that you will receive your reward in Heaven. Now I am a strange mix (or mess) here. Catholic for years, a professed Third Order Franciscan, (my wife and I) have been using the Lamsa Aramaic Bible for several years. In fact, over the years I have felt that the Eastern Church is more likely to have the truth than Rome. Thank you again for your kindness. It would have been a long time before I could afford your books, because although no longer a real Franciscan, we try to live a very simple lifestyle.

Thanks for pressing on in your efforts and I do know this, the Lord has always used the lowly of the human race to see his glorious work come forth and it had never been in the premise of lofty types - time and again from David in ancient Israel to the chosen 12. In the case of the apostle Paul, the Lord first reduced him nothingness, purged his heart and conscience clear before He brought forth the ministry to the human race first to the Jews and then the rest of the nations...

Much love and hugs from a brethren in Los Angeles, California.

MessageGreetings to you beloved brother Christopher...

First of all, thank you for your continued boldness and labor of love in publishing (and publicizing) the truths which our Lord have preserved in his holy scriptures through time through the faithfulness of the Aramaic language (dialects might be a closer description perhaps since I am of Chinese descent yet we have hundreds of dialects -- from the far east to the near east -- but yet share only 1 written form - though we now have a simplified version as well.)

Having been both schooled in the western culture (colleges in the UK, and the US, along with education in Singapore, schooled in my Asian heritage etc...) and the oriental traditions of my forebears, I can certainly understand the superior voice of a prevalent culture that dominates the present age much liken to the days when the Assyrian culture dominated that period in antiquity.

It is ironic that the traditions, pride, ego of men coupled with Satan's continuing agenda to deceive and manipulate the human race to distort the scriptures in every conceivable manner through insertions, deletions, mis-translation, mis-readings, misunderstanding, both intentional and unintentional and especially the pride of scholarly zeal and the know it all superiority complex such is the fallen human nature manifested time and again - all in which to deny the visible proofs and yet explaining away anything which runs counter to their holy idols.

MessageHi Chris

Maybe Christians would have a better understanding of the Bible, if they studied the original teachings of Jesus, rather than a Greek copy of His teachings.

Indeed if this was only the case
Regards
Stu

MessageChristopher - -

Thank you so very much for your help in straitening out so many of the words and phrases in the Bible from the original Aramaic text. I started with “Peshitta for Dummies” and am now well into “Was the New Testament Really Written in Greek?” and it is obviously much more intense in your findings which are vitally helpful in understanding the true word of God. I see so many adjustments in the many versions of the Bible which is very frustrating to see what man has done to (in many cases) bend or remove certain things that do not fit into the beliefs of their denomination. I use your Web site daily for insights from your work and from the offerings of Paul Younan I have gotten pretty good at reading from right to left and making sense of the scripture.

Thank you again for all the hard work and devotion you have put into helping us understand the Aramaic Peshitta original text. And thank you also for responding to my email questions.

MessageIt is a help in picking out mistakes in the KJV. For instance Matt. 28:1 twilight, not dawn.
Shabbat Shalom,

MessageAfter reading your book Was the New Testament Written in Greek, I was amazed at how much more depth Aramaic has over Greek (though not even close in comparison to Hebrew). I also printed the book for offline study. Now I am disgusted at the Greek texts, and to be honest, wouldn't bother me to ever read the Greek again. I bought an Aramaic (I hope it's a real Peshitta Bible) with Jacobite script from the American Bible Society. I know nothing of the language, but yearn to know it fluently, as I would also with Hebrew. smilie
Now my next question is: Should I scrap my King James and other churchian translations of the Holy Writings? smilie Lamsa's translation is too King James-y. But it's the only common translation of the Peshitta.
May Yahweh bless You, Chris, for this website and free book. I know it in my heart that this book has stirred me to learn Aramaic, hopefully to one day master both Hebrew and Aramaic. And if Yahweh allows, possibly Arabic as well. smilie


Abba Yahweh please reveal more of Yourself to all who love You and want to seek You in all their heart, mind, being, and might in Yeshua's Name. Enlighten us with Your Spirit of Holiness. Show us your Face. Amen.
