In addition to this I would like to make the observation
that the phenomenon of the divine name seems to support
this theory. yhwh being an aramaic name was the way
Abraham called his god and was the way he taught his
children to call his god. This was perhaps the only
survivor of Abraham's language that managed to rest in
the language all the way through the generations even
though for the rest of everyday communication they
adopted hebrew.
