Our Review

This compelling exploration brings readers directly to the source of Jesus's teachings by presenting them in their original Aramaic language, alongside clear English translations and accessible commentary. Author Stephen Andrew Missick strips away centuries of translation layers, offering a fresh perspective on foundational Christian texts for those seeking a deeper, more authentic connection to the historical figure of Jesus. The book serves as both a linguistic study and a spiritual resource, making ancient scripture feel immediate and relevant.

What makes this work particularly valuable is its ability to illuminate the cultural and emotional nuances often lost in translation, revealing the poetic rhythm and deeper meanings embedded in the original words. Readers with an interest in biblical history, linguistics, or a more textured understanding of their faith will find this volume especially rewarding. It’s a thought-provoking read that challenges familiar interpretations and invites a personal, renewed engagement with these timeless teachings.
