1 | Is the Law abolished? | Matt 5:17 | Hank | 137777 | ||
Having followed this thread with some interest fueled no doubt by a keen interest in language, it strikes me as more academic than spiritually edifying to bandy about whether Jesus spoke Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek or in what language Matthew wrote his Gospel. In what language did Peter and the other disciples address the crowd on Pentecost and in what languages were they heard? If indeed the language barrier were overcome supernaturally at Pentecost, is there any reason to believe that the Son of God would be hampered by the constraints of language from delivering His message in language that His intended hearers would be able to understand? My point is this: God has always been able to deliver His message to whomever He wishes in intelligible language. Is it really necessary to know the language which God used to communicate to Adam and Eve in order to understand what happened in Eden? And although background knowledge of ancient languages and customs can be helpful, how much of it does the sinner need in order to be re-born in Christ Jesus? --Hank | ||||||
