Randall,

To what degree was Aramaic in active use? Do you think that some families
might have spoken low Hebrew at home whereas others Aramaic? I notice that a
Galilean used Aramaic among Galileans in Mark. 5:41. What do you think of a
hypothesis that Aramaic was more predominant in Galilee (as linguistic
influence from the north) than in Judea?
