Overview"Explore the linguistic roots of early Christianity with Al Garza's new book, ""The Search for the Language of the New Testament."" Based on over ten years of detailed research, this insightful work examines the roles of Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek during the times of Jesus and the apostles, shedding new light on the original texts of the New Testament. ""The Search for the Language of the New Testament"" delves into the linguistic foundation of the New Testament texts, highlighting the pivotal role played by Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. Recent scholarship and historical analysis suggest that Hebrew was likely the mother tongue of Jesus and the apostles, complementing the previously recognized use of Aramaic and Greek. This linguistic diversity is reflected in the early Christian texts and translations examined throughout the discussions, such as those by Jerome and Augustine, who worked with these languages to articulate the doctrines and narratives central to Christianity. The exploration reveals how the Hebrew language, alongside Greek and Aramaic, significantly influenced the formulation and dissemination of the New Testament, leading to a multilingual body of scripture that encompassed the theological and cultural nuances of early Christian communities. This complex linguistic backdrop underscores the depth and breadth of early Christian texts and shapes our understanding of their development and transmission."
