Historically speaking, Jesus is a Hebrew of the tribe of Judah. He was raised in the city of Nazareth in Galilee. Being such, he spoke Hebrew with aGalilean accent. It was noted that hearing Jesus speak, on occasion, the listener would hear him speak in listener's native tongue. To assume that Jesus was a native Latin speaker violates his Jewish roots and upbringing. It is believed by many scholars that Hebrew is the original language. History records that Alexander the great wrote back to his teacher that he had discovered an ancient tomb with ancient Hebrew writing on it while he was in India. Alexander concluded in his letter that Hebrew must have been the original language. This is consistent with Judeo-Christian beliefs concerning the accounts of the tower of Babel. At Babel, Nimrod had organized a pagan sun god worship and had gathered most peoples of the earth at that time to him. They constructed a great tower in an attempt to prevent YHVH from destroying all men with a flood again. This rebellion provoked YHVH into give them different languages so as to prevent them from getting together in rebellion with ease of communication. The few men in the family of Noah, who was still alive at this event due to his longevity, retained the original language. There is much historical evidence to support this view if one diligently searches. This is not the popular belief.
