Introduction

Dear reader,

The Greek New Testament has made valuable contributions to Western Civilization by enlarging the capacity for forgiveness, service to others, and love. These principles are universal and essential for human existence and prosperity. The authors of the New Testament explain that Jesus is the promised Messiah who fulfilled prophecies from the Old Testament and established a new relationship between God and humanity. The New Testament authors record the origins and growth of early Christianity, including teachings and experiences of Jesus’ apostles and other early Christian leaders. Letters within the New Testament offer practical advice, theological insights, and encouragement. The New Testament serves as a testament to living faith in God, offering moral, inspirational, and theological insights.

However, Jesus never wrote any books of the Greek New Testament. Paul the Apostle wrote about 48% of the New Testament. Paul’s disciple Luke wrote about 27% of the New Testament. Approximately 75% of the New Testament consists of statements of belief written by two authors who wrote in Koine Greek and did not personally meet Jesus. However, it is widely understood that Jesus (Yeshua) spoke indigenous Galilean Jewish Aramaic. The AHAV Bible demonstrates how Jesus’ teachings, in his original Galilean Jewish Aramaic language, reflect the wisdom of his Aidenic Hebrew spirituality.

The AHAV Bible provides Galilean archaeological evidence from his home village of Nazareth, as well as from Capernaum, Tiberias, Sepphoris, Beyt Shean, and other first-century Galilean villages and cities to authenticate his language, culture and original teachings. Extensive archaeological discoveries confirm the historical context of the Greek New Testament and provide insights into the life and teachings of Jesus. The AHAV Bible explores in-depth Hebrew prophecies and first-century Hebraic Jewish spirituality, in conjunction with the teachings of Jesus.

The AHAV Bible references a wide range of ancient Greek New Testament papyrus manuscripts, minuscules, and uncials. It features a blend of Ancient Hebrew, Biblical Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, and Latin words that are transliterated and translated into English. English readers now have direct access to compare the contextuality and nuance of these Biblical languages. The AHAV Bible uses simplified Hebrew without affixes, prefixes, suffixes, and infixes that modify the meaning of a word. Hebrew root words are used and amplified in English to make it easy for English readers with little or no previous knowledge of Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek.

The AHAV Bible provides valuable education for human development, equipping readers with essential skills that contribute to societal progress. The AHAV Bible equips individuals with knowledge and critical thinking skills essential for success, while also contributing to a more informed and engaged society. The AHAV Bible offers in depth appendix entries and footnotes to analyze and compare theological perspectives between Hebrew Tanakh, Greek Old Testament, and Greek New Testament texts. Theological concepts originating in Greek philosophy, Roman sophism, and Jewish traditions are analyzed and contrasted based on language and cultural influences. The AHAV Bible reveals principles of intelligent spirituality according to Hebraic definitions of love, humility, faith, confidence, reconciliation, wealth, etc., to unite and prosper our precious human family. The AHAV Bible does not censor sensitive, controversial, or inconvenient information. AHAV is an acronym for Aramaic Hebrew Amplified Version and Hebrew for “love” which is the focus of the AHAV Bible.

Our prayers and blessings are with you,

The AHAV Bible family.
