(May 2014) Toward the end of his visit to Israel and the Palestinian Authority this weekend, Pope Francis and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed the language Jesus spoke.
"Jesus was here, in this land. He spoke Hebrew," Netanyahu told Francis according to quotes reported by Reuters.
"He was speaking Aramaic," the pope replied with a smile, according to the Associated Press.
"He spoke Aramaic, and he also knew Hebrew," Netanyahu corrected.
