What Was Jesus's Native Tongue ?
 

When Jesus Christ was here on earth did He primarily speak Hebrew,Greek Or Aramaic ? What was His native tongue ?

I think Aramaic was his native tongue but everyone also spoke Greek, maybe the torah was in Hebrew? But I'm guessing.

Aramaic was the street langage of that day if I am not mistaken...am sure some Hebrew and maybe a little Greek...

Personally I think He spoke all three.

Hebrew and or Aramaic.

I would say that Jesus would have likely been multilingual. Greek was the language of commerce and ideas, Hebrew and Aramaic or some sort of mixture would have been the language that was used most often in daily life in Israel, Latin would have been the language of the government and rulers. I would guess that He likely had at least a passable vocabulary in both Latin and Greek.
