In Search of the Aramaic Jesus - A Rediscovery. Many of Jesus' words have been mistranslated. Jesus' mother tongue, Aramaic, is the key to truly understanding his unique, fundamental message. Because 2,000 years ago, Aramaic was as far removed from the biblical language of Greek as Arabic is from German today, Jesus has been handed down to us in a very contradictory and incomprehensible way. Following in the footsteps of the true Aramaic Jesus, Franz Alt's new book is a call to all to revive the message of Jesus. Those who come to know the true Jesus will not be able to overlook him even today. The message of Jesus: Fire instead of Ashes! Have we been unable to understand Jesus because he spoke Aramaic? Jesus rethought many things and created even more anew. However, this newness has been buried over the course of 2,000 years.
