Matthew 10:36 What did Jesus Really Say about your Enemies?

In Matthew 10:36 Jesus uses a pun to demonstrate that there can be little difference between “enemies” and “loved ones.” In Hebrew, both words are spelled with the same letters.

Matthew 10:36 And a man’s enemies {“Enemies” (והאויבים) ahoyevim} will be those of his own household {“Loved ones” (אהובים) ahuvim}.’

Note: Most scholars believe that Jesus spoke a Semitic language either Aramaic or Hebrew or both.
