The Interpreters
The teachings and resources on aramaicjesus.org are drawn from the work of four remarkable interpreters — each bringing their own gifts to the task of recovering the Aramaic words of Yeshua (Jesus) for personal awakening and world peace.
Tomas Meyers
Poet & Songwriter
Tomas brought the ancient words of Jesus to life through luminous poetry and song. His works include Spun Wonderment, Aha! and Amen, and the audio albums Seedlings and Gleanings and Becoming Peace.
Rachmana
Founder & Teacher
Founder of aramaicjesus.org, teacher, chanter, and interpreter. Rachmana’s lifelong spiritual journey led her to the Aramaic Yeshua. She is the guiding voice of this site.
Dr. Rocco Errico
Aramaic Scholar
A student of Dr. George Lamsa, Errico has dedicated his life to uncovering the Semitic roots of Jesus’ teachings with infectious enthusiasm and warmth.
Dr. George Lamsa
Bible Translator
Pioneering Aramaic Bible translator (1892–1975). Born in Assyria where Aramaic was still spoken, Lamsa translated the Peshitta into English and revealed centuries of misunderstanding.
Dr. Neil Douglas-Klotz
Aramaic Scholar & Mystic
Scholar, author, and spiritual teacher whose translations of the Aramaic words of Jesus reveal layers of meaning lost in Greek and Latin. His work, including Prayers of the Cosmos, draws on Sufi mysticism and the living Aramaic tradition.
