 | | However, Aramaic remains a literary and liturgical language among Jews, Mandaeans and some Christians, and is still spoken by small isolated communities throughout its original area of influence. | | | It is the dialect of Babylonian private documents, and, from the twelfth century, all Jewish private documents in Aramaic. | | | The Jewish Modern Aramaic languages are now mostly spoken in Israel, and most are facing extinction (older speakers are not passing the language to younger generations). |

| | Aramaic is used extensively in the writings of the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Mishnah and the Tosefta alongside Hebrew. | | | The dialect of Babylon, the basis for standard Aramaic under the Persians, continued to be regarded as normative, and the writings of Jews in the east was held in higher regard because of it. | | | Judaea was one of the areas where Aramaic remained dominant, and its use remained among Babylonian Jews as well. |

| | Dalman agrees with the fact that Aramaic was the spoken language of the Jews in New Testament time. | | | More recently too, Dupont-Sommer argued that, Aramaic was the only language current among ordinary people at the time of Jesus, and that it was the language spoken by Jesus and the Apostles[29]. | | | The most extreme theory is that during the Exile, the Jews lost their Hebrew language for Aramaic. |
