Not really.  The majority of vocabulary represented in the transliterated 
quotes is clearly
Aramaic.

You also wrote in a separate message:

This tells us the sum total of nothing, since the Greek text reads  so we 
can't tell
one from another. Except at the beginning of a word, Greek had no way to 
indicate an "h"
sound or a glottal stop.  However, the smooth breathing and the e-class vowel 
at the
beginning suggest that the form is an aph`el, making it Aramaic.

As I said, there is no Hebrew in the NT that we know of.
