On an "everyday" basis, Jesus would have spoken Aramaic, says Dr. Sebastian Brock of Oxford, and the Washington Post notes there's a "scholarly consensus" on this matter. Hebrew, meanwhile, was used in more scholarly pursuits, as well as scripture—though it was also used by poorer people, "the kind of people (Jesus) ministered to," another expert tells Reuters. Jesus may have known Latin, too, though likely only a few words, the BBC notes; he also could have known some Greek, which was used by officials in the Roman Empire. (An ancient image of a curly-haired Jesus was recently found in a tomb in Egypt.)
