page 78 note 5 Cf. Kahle, PaulThe Cairo Geniza (London, 1947), pp. 117–32 and 179–97 for a discussion on the Targum wher he states, ‘We have to regard most of the material collected by Dalman on this problem [‘identifying the special Armaic idion spoken in the time of Jesus’], if not as worthless, yet certainly as misleading’ (p. 131). There is also a section on the Peshitta which in his words is ‘another paralled to the history of the Targums …’ (p. 179). Another work in this field is Harris Birkeland' little volume on The Language of Jesus (Oslo, 1954), where he takes the extreme view (and maybe the right one) that ‘the language of the common people in Palestine in the time of Jesus was Hebrew … that Jesus really used Hebrew’ (p. 39).Google Scholar

page 81 note 1 Eb. Nestle (Encyclopaedia Biblica, pp. 2819–20) states: ‘The oldest tradition seems to be that represented in syrVI (cur., sin. and Acts of Thomas) by, (our) constant, continual bread. This is, in the Pesh. of the OT, the regular rendering of Heb.; see especially Num. iv. 7,(“continual bread” EV), and it is a strange coincidence, that not only the Armenian version of 2 Macc. translated i. 8 (προεθήκαμεν τούς άρτους) by the same word as in NT τόν άρτον ήμν τόν έπιούσιον but also the medieval Jew, Shemtob ben Shaphrut, to whom is due the Hebrew translation of the Gospel of Metthew, published in the 16th century by Münster and Mercier, and republished in 1879 by Ad. Herbst, hit upon the corresponding Hebrew word, translating. He even formed from an adjective, which in biblical Hebrew is as unheard of as έπιούσιοέπιοσα.’Google Scholar
