Publisher's Synopsis
The Aramaic Origin of the Fourth Gospel is a book written by Charles Fox Burney and originally published in 1922. The book discusses the possibility that the Gospel of John was originally written in Aramaic, rather than Greek, as is commonly believed. Burney argues that the use of certain Aramaic expressions and idioms in the Gospel suggest that it was originally written in that language. He also examines the evidence of early Church Fathers, who suggest that the Gospel was originally written in Aramaic and later translated into Greek. The book provides a detailed analysis of the Aramaic language and its relationship to the Gospel of John, as well as a discussion of the implications of this theory for the interpretation of the Gospel. It is considered a classic work in the field of Biblical studies and is still widely read and cited today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
