Notes

1-Jesus didn't "speak" either; Hebrew & Aramaic were languages for the learned. Pple spoke (as today) dialects; Jesus prob. spoke a Galilean one.
2-Netanyahu did not call Jesus by his Heb. name יהושע (Yehoshua) or ישוע, but by ישו "Yeshu" used to stress foreignness. https://t.co/Hc8E1Ugasz

Today, law-abiding Americans are technically still living under draconian, nationwide lockdowns. Simultaneously, the cities they live in are subjected to racially motivated rioting, in which mob members conspicuously flout public health guidelines. https://t.co/c3ADUUn7At
