1 | MJH: Matthew in Hebrew and "Q" Document? | NT general Archive 1 | MJH | 177173 | ||
Matthew being first, I don't recall at hand and it's too late to think that hard, plus I really don't care if Matthew or Mark was first right now. Sorry. Originally in Hebrew. Again, there is not credible evidence other than looking at how the Greek is written and linguistically it seems likely to have been written in Hebrew first. Also, the evidence that Hebrew was the common spoken language of the people in the Galil is so over whelming that it baffles the mind that anyone would think otherwise. Every form of evidence favors Hebrew as the spoken language, and yet since Aramaic was also spoken and since the Jews were in captivity in Arabic speaking nations, most pastors still hold to the Arabic language as the common tongue. Given that theory, then in 2000 years the historians then will claim that the people living in Israel now are speaking anything but Hebrew. After all, they were spread all over the globe among other languages for not 70 or 400 years, but 1,900 years! They couldn't have preserved their language no matter what Archeology and the written texts from the time show. Right? Sorry for the sarcasm, but this topic with me on this forum is getting too old and I am in the minority still. Oh well, I still love all you people who are wrong. hee hee. The 'Q' is just a theory that people have of which I do not have any opinion on. I only tossed it out there for information...that some believe. Sorry Hank, I could go into the Matthew being in Hebrew and being first, but I just don't have the energy right now. MJH |

God's day to you, MJH, Bottom line - Spirit inspriation ... How Q and other documents may influenced the writings, all Scripture is inspired by God (2 Tim 3:16). Even the timing was up to Him. Don't put too much into who was first. GOD IS FIRST. Searcher |
