Private Hebrew and Aramaic Coaching Program
Subscribing to Jesus Spoke Aramaic is an excellent choice for most people because it provides you with full access to a wealth of video lessons on Aramaic and many other resources. However, you might prefer to be privately coached and to progress at a pace that is faster than you ever imagined possible, covering EXACTLY what subjects YOU want to cover. If that sounds like you, we now offer an exclusive Private Hebrew and Aramaic Coaching Program. Take a look at the Coaching link above, and read through the material to see whether this would be of interest to you...
New Lessons on the Aramaic New Testament
We are currently adding a new group of lessons on the History of the Aramaic New Testament. We will provide some very unique evidence showing how the Aramaic Peshitta New Testament has traditionally been regarded, down through the centuries, by people in both the East and West. We find that the Peshitta has been universally hailed as ancient, authentic, and probably more authoritative and reliable than every other textual tradition. This was the case right up into the early 1900s, at which time a concerted attempt was made in the academic world to replace the traditional textual base of the New Testament, in use for millennia, with a completely new text. Although the goal was to replace the Greek New Testament traditionally in use, the Aramaic Peshitta was "collateral damage", since it too preserved centuries of tradition. We will therefore find that the current academic views of the Peshitta are actually very recent, and are in stark contrast with almost two thousand years of recorded and reliable history!

New Lessons on the Swadaya Script
To complete the lessons on the various scripts of the Aramaic Alphabet that have been used historically over time, we have started to create a new series on the Swadaya script. Swadaya is also known as the Eastern, Madnahaya or Modern Script, and is used for some editions of the Aramaic Old and New Testaments, as well as in Modern (Neo) Aramaic.

New Printed Book - "Jesus Spoke Aramaic: The Reasons Why, & Why It Matters"
We have just released a superb new book which provides a decisive and compelling introduction into the key lines of evidence that Jesus spoke Aramaic, also showing that Aramaic was the dominant spoken and written language amongst Jews in Israel in the 1st century. This book provides an excellent overview of this fascinating subject, and is ideal way to learn things quickly. There is also an accompanying DVD which contains a PDF of the entire book, MP3 Audio files of the entire book being narrated, a special introductory video presentation, and several video lessons which explain certain aspects of the book in further detail.

The Lord's Prayer Study Guide and CD
We have recently improved The Lord's Prayer Study Guide, and produced an accompanying Meditational Audio CD. The Lord's Prayer is the model prayer which Jesus gives to his disciples in Matthew chapter 6. If you would like to learn this special prayer in Aramaic, the combination of the Study Guide and the Meditational Audio CD provides everything you need.

Aramaic New Testament Audio
Exciting news! We have now completed recording the entire Aramaic Peshitta New Testament, narrated as a series of MP3 Audio files. This is a very exciting project, because recording the entire New Testament in Aramaic, and making it available to the general public, has NEVER been done before. It is something which many people have been requesting for literally years... and now it is available!
