Enhanced with unpublished research and praised for clarity, this book is a must-have for those seeking deeper biblical insight beyond traditional commentaries. ## Description Aramaic Light on the Gospel of John, like its predecessors Aramaic Light on the Gospel of Matthew and Aramaic Light on the Gospels of Mark and Luke, carries you back into the Near Eastern, Semitic times of Jesus of Nazareth. It is unique in that it provides insight into the Aramaic language and Semitic customs of almost two thousand years ago. If you instinctively shy away from "commentaries"—This one will surprise you. No dull theological seminary textbook, the approach is simple, informative, and scholarly, without using specialized theological terminology. This inimitable commentary acts a Near Eastern guide, revealing to the Western mind a more intimate picture of the socio-religious and psychological environment of the period. It offers an understanding of the character and behavior of Near Eastern Semites. This is the field of Dr. Errico's and Dr. Lamsa's research and expertise. They bring clarification to many misunderstood passages and sayings of Jesus. Learn the Semitic meanings behind such terms as "the Word," "Light," "Life," "Christ." Understand what Jesus meant when he said "No man comes to the Father except through me" and many other sayings that appear to be sectarian and exclusive. This volume is more than a revision of Dr. Lamsa's commentaries, Gospel Light, 1936, and More Light on the Gospel, 1968. Dr. Errico has edited, expanded and annotated these previous works in the new format that Dr. Lamsa desired. In addition, this book contains unpublished material that the two of them outlined just before Dr. Lamsa died in 1975. Dr. Errico completed these comments and has added information derived from his continual research in Near Eastern Semitic studies. Review: Wisdom and Truth, Personification of God's Creative Mind-Energy - This book is like fresh air! Breathe in wisdom and understanding. Clear and lucid are the teachings of Jesus when you find them in his own language, Aramaic. If you like reading about Hidden Gospels, and Lost Books of Christianity, and Wisdom teaching, then this book is a definite must-read. A civilization with customs, manners and language almost identical to those in the time of Jesus with similar idioms and parables, and untouched by the outside world for 1900 years was home to author George M. Lamsa. Only at the beginning of the 20th century did his isolated segment of the once great Assyrian Empire learn of the discovery of America and the Reformation in Germany. Likewise, this early culture of early Christians was unknown to the Western world, and the Aramaic language was thought to be dead. But in this so-called "Cradle of Civilization" in the basin of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, primitive biblical customs and Semitic culture, cut off from the world, were preserved. This book is a treasure chest of gems of new understanding and insight. In John 20:22, we read that Jesus blew his breath on his disciples: "He breathed on them." This means that he encouraged them. It seems that it is a rope, rather than a camel, that has such difficulty going through the eye of a needle. Easy to read and enjoyable and very informative, this book is definitely one you should have in your library.
