"Aramaic is a subtle language, each word having multiple meanings depending on the emphasis placed on portions of the word. The Author does an excellent job explaining those subtleties and where they originated from. Aramaic makes English look watered down. Fabulous book!"
"The Aramaic language is much, much richer than English, with each word having multiple meanings. Prayers translated into English use just one of those meanings. Douglas-Klotz re-inserts the multiple meanings, broadening the context of every sentence. This is truly a book that will help expand ones spirituality, sense of who Jesus was, and sense of God."
"A deceptively simple little book with a paradigm-shifting perspective. Ever wonder what Jesus ACTUALLY said -- in Aramaic, his native language -- when he prayed "Our Father Who Art in Heaven?" Mind-blowing insights into the rich, multi-layered metaphorical nuances of Aramaic -- as opposed to the narrow, rigid and confining Greek tongue -- the language into which the Bible was corseted... Profound. This book literally changed my life."
"I read this intermittently. It's by my bed for times when it seems right to pick it up again and read part of it. It's an interesting way to reframe religious dogma. We get a taste of what it may have been that the man named Jesus was really trying to convey. For some reason it never feels religious to me at all...it just feels stimulating in mind, body and spirit. Maybe not good for a light read though...if you have any kind of spiritual practice, I would recommend having it around."
