→‎Statement on Translations: Mark did use Aramaic in those situations. See, e.g., "Talitha kuom" in Mark 5:41. He did not use Aramaic in the encounter with the sea, and hence Mark was probably not quoting Jesus.
Line 130: Line 130:  
*Whether Jesus addressed the sea in Aramaic or Greek is not important: Mark could rely on the best possible information - probably by the Apostle Peter (he wasn't a modern romance novelist who asked himself "what could my protagonist have said here?") Then, he gave us the Greek version of this information.

::As to your first point, there is no reason to expect that any of your citation would be in Aramaic instead of Greek, and you don't explain otherwise.  As to your second point, discussion is important and that is what it is essential that intelligent discussion not be censored through the use of childish putdowns, which is the effect such a style can have.

::As to your third point, Jesus spoke in Aramaic when uttering an emotional, spontaneous remark to others who spoke Aramaic.  This '''''is''''' basic and is not disputed.  There are numerous instances in the [[Gospels]].

::As to your fourth point, Mark did use Aramaic in those situations.  See, e.g.,  "Talitha kuom" in Mark 5:41.  He did not use Aramaic in the encounter with the sea, and hence Mark was probably not quoting Jesus.  Of course, there are additional reasons to conclude that Mark was not quoting Jesus as well.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] ([[User talk:Aschlafly|talk]]) 14:42, 4 April 2017 (EDT)
