Andrew Gabriel Roth has been studying Hebrew and Aramaic since the age of 5 and has steadily nursed an interest in biblical Greek since the early 1980s. While active in Semitic studies throughout his college years, Mr. Roth later became a Messianic Jew, and has spent the last two decades studying the Hebrew and Aramaic connections to the New Testament. Since that time, Mr. Roth also has become a frequent contributor to the Aramaic Bible Society, and was recently given the role of editor for the Aramaic journal Beth Gaza.

This review is from: Signs of the Cross: The Search for the Historical Jesus from a Jewish Perspective and the Recovery of the True Origin of the New Testament (Hardcover)

The Truth Shall Set You Free and the truth is in this book, my eyes were opened as I bagan to read this book. Now two books later and an Aramaic English New Testament and I feel like I have been studying my whole life. I learned more from this book than the last ten years in church.
