The text explores the possible Aramaic origins of the Gospel of Thomas, a non-canonical collection of Jesus' sayings. Evidence suggests an Aramaic influence due to the sayings' structure, vocabulary, and thematic similarities to known Aramaic writings and the Synoptic Gospels. While no Aramaic manuscript exists, linguistic analysis reveals stylistic features aligning with Semitic parallelism and aphorisms. This supports the theory that the Gospel of Thomas, initially transmitted orally in Aramaic, was later translated into Greek. The text's overall argument posits a strong connection between the Gospel's content and the historical Jesus' Aramaic teachings. Online courses: www.twinsbiblicalacademy.com
