Are there any words he could use that we could understand?

I'm not asking to be lectured about Jesus.
To much to ask, i know!

He would have no trouble communicating with the Aramaic speakers who still live in the Galilee region today.
But the evidence suggests that Jesus did most of his talking in Greek.

Here is a word we have all heard of:

Abba, an Aramaic word (written Αββα in Greek, and 'abbā in Aramaic), is immediately followed by the Greek equivalent (Πατηρ) with no explicit mention of it being a translation. The phrase Abba, Father is repeated in Romans 8:15 and Galatians 4:6.

I think it is either you are making a great mistake when you ask that question, or you lack wisdom. There is no language that the Lord cannot understand and speak. He created all people - surely therefore, he can and often does speak with all the different people. What makes it seem as if he is quiet, it is because our ears are dull of hearing. For instance, a deaf person - a person who cannot hear, no matter how much noise is made, the deaf person will not be able to hear. In the same way we cannot hear the Lord when he speaks because of dullness.

But not all are dull.

YES If you are referring to "beaming down" like they do on planets in Star Trek on TV, you should be aware that they all have the "universal translator" which like Data instantly translates any language whatsoever to your own automatically. It seems highly probable if Jesus did come down he would have something similar so everybody would be able to understand him, just as everybody reading any one of the four Gospels in their own language today understands exactly what He originally said in Aramaic.

Beamed down? He isn't on a spaceship you know. He is God and is able to appear to all people all over the world speaking in many different languages at the same time if He so wishes. He created this world and you. He is all powerful and is able to do anything He wishes.He knows all about you of course-even how many hairs are on your head.

He spoke Aramaic then as it was the language spoken there at the time.Jesus would choose the language to suit the individual person,what about people who can't talk or understand??He would still get through to them.

Aramaic is a sister language of Arab, I think some arab folks would be able to decipher him.

Yes he would, but no one would believe him, and that my friend is why it will be a long time before he will set foot amongst us again

True, we'd get all confused and stick him back on the cross again without knowing.
