John 20

16Jesus said to her, "Mary."
She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, "Rabboni!" (which means Teacher).

Again the bible reveil the Aramaic word for "teacher" is "Rabboni". why didn't the bible says in Aramaic,"AaLaH" (which means God)?

Btw i'm a muslim.

Perhaps because nobody thought to mention how many different ways there are to say "God" in Aramaic"? The original authors weren't creating a lexicon, after all. They were passing on the stories they had about Jesus Christ. Points of Aramaic translation would have been left to another literary work.

Without consulting the original authors, to find out "why", we really can't know.

The original Book of John was not written in Aramaic. Mary spoke Aramaic and responded in that tongue...in this context it was proper to make the translation and this was carried into the english text. I do nor believe that God was written in Aramaic in any of the original texts... but I could be wrong on this... most of the original texts were written in a form of Hebrew.

Because they were a Jewish culture that commonly spoke Aramaic, and Allah was one of the god's in Arabic cultures.

I think that it's pretty simple. The influence of the word 'allah' (and whatever other meaning it might have), wasn't, and STILL isn't too 'favored' in Jewish culture.

Because Mary knew that Jesus was not God.Mary recognised Jesus to be the Son of God.

Give it up!
Jesus, your prophet (who cannot lie) said, "The gates of Hell will NOT prevail against my Church."
No matter what you say and do against Christianity, it will fail.
