What is the word for Church in the Aramaic Language?
Answer 1:
The word "church" does not exist in Aramaic. However, the word used by Aramaeans, and in the Aramaic Gospels is Eidutha. This word is taken from the root word "Witness". Thus, Church in Aramaic is essentially, witness.
Answer 2:
The word "church" does not exist in Aramaic as such insofar as the Aramaic speaking Christians do not speak English. But the word for the Church DOES exist. The hebrew name could be Qahal (gathering - called in), or better, and in fact used : Knesiyah(cf. Knesseth - the word for Israeli council). The same in Arabic: Käneesah (council).
The aramaic speaking Christians (in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon) may use the arabic word Käneesah (since Arabic is today the official language of those lands - it means the christian community as well as their sacred buildings), but, really, the Aramaic word for the Church (as community, assembly, gathering of believers - called in together by God) does exist: it is Edutha (or Eidutha)- The root "´- d - t " means in fact "counsel", and reflects also a gathering (as in English: counsel and council - from the same latine root). So the word witness is from the same semitic root, and plays a role in the Church, but the technical term "Edutha" reflects the meaning of council, assembly, dynamic community. This word is used both in the syriac (late aramaic language) translation of the NT as well as in the colloquial use among the Syrian and Iraqi Christians.
