Strong's Lexicon Aramith: Aramaic Original Word: אֲרָמִית Word Origin: Derived from אֲרָם (Aram), referring to the region and people of Aram, commonly known as Syria. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "Aramith," the Greek term Συριστί (Syristi) in the New Testament refers to the Aramaic language (e.g., John 19:20). Usage: The term "Aramith" refers to the Aramaic language, which was widely spoken in the Near East during the time of the Old Testament. It is used to denote the language of the Arameans and later became a lingua franca of the region, especially during the Persian Empire. Cultural and Historical Background: Aramaic was a Semitic language closely related to Hebrew and Arabic. It gained prominence as a common language of trade and diplomacy across the Near East. By the time of the Babylonian exile, many Jews had adopted Aramaic as their spoken language. Portions of the Old Testament, such as parts of Daniel and Ezra, are written in Aramaic, reflecting its widespread use. Aramaic continued to be significant in the New Testament period, as it was the language spoken by Jesus and His disciples.
