"Losing Jesus' Language"
#16
Dave Wrote:For me Ooze, if the aramaic language and it's dialects dies out, it would be because God would rather see it die. Hebrew thrives in Israel, and is growing everyday. Obviously, God does bless that language.


Well I (Among many others) would actually it a miracle that Aramaic has actually lasted as long as it did.


Think about it, except for Greek most of the other classical languages like Latin, Coptic, etc.have died out or mutated into modern tongues.


Based on the fact that both classical Latin, and Koine Greek are both "Dead languages", made me totally expect up until a few years ago that it would be the same with Aramaic. But I was quite shocked to find that yes some people still use this tongue, although their numbers are gradually dwindling....


Anyway, it looks to me that God hand of providence has infact, been instrumental in keeping this language alive. And since we as Christians are suppose to excericse stewardship over all those resources that God gives us. I think it is quite fitting, that those who are gifted perserve this language as part of the Christian heritage. Because it not only is the language of the Lord, but has been the tongue of many great Christians in centuries past! So it is fitting to to entrust to future generations the faith that we have received (And with it comes things like this).
