Aramaic original New Testament theory
Appearance
Aramaic Primacists believe that the Christian New Testament was originally written in Aramaic, not Greek as generally claimed by Churches of the West. The Assyrian_Church_of_the_East and most Aramaic speaking churches have long claimed the Aramaic Peshitta was the original language New Testament.
George_Lamsa's translation of the New Testament from the Aramaic brought the Aramaic Primacy issue to the West, though still few are familiar with it. With the rise of the internet, Aramaic Primacists began to pool arguments in favor of their case. Current advocates include Paul Younan, Andrew Gabriel Roth, Christopher Lancaster, and others.
