Treasures from the Language of Jesus

Treasures from the Language of Jesus, like its predecessor, Let There Be Light, takes us to the heart of the Bible by working with Aramaic - the actual language spoken by the Patriarchs, Jesus his apostles and their comtemporaries. This is the field of Dr. Errico's research and expertise, along with his knowledge of the customs, idioms, psychology, symbolism, and philosophy of the Semitic peoples. Once more, Dr. Errico unlocks puzzling passages with the Seven Keys of Near Eastern language: Aramaic, idioms, mysticism, culture, psychology, symbolism, and rhetorical amplification. Suddenly the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, becomes clearer and more relevant for Western readers. --- from book's back cover
