Jesus Makes a Poem

An Aramaic rendering of Matthew 5:15 reveals a poem by Jesus:

They don’t light a lamp [shraga]
and place it under a bushel [satha],
but rather, upon a lamp-stand [manartha],
and it shines [manhar]
for all those who are in the house.


J. Clontz – Editor of the Comprehensive New Testament
