ullangoo saidJesus did not speak Greek. Till recently I found Jesus spoke Aramaic somewhere in the net I had thought he must have spoken Koine or simplified common Greek for New Testament was written in Koine. Jesus didn't call his God in his name if he simply used Eli for his God. Jesus might have used the term Adonai as well as Father to call his God since what is important is their relation to God. If someone thinks God is his lord or father, they will call their God so. That does not mean their God is really their lord or father. They called so because of their faith. Father means both our biological father and God in heaven. In the same manner kyrios, adonai, lord all mean in many ways including their master, teacher, God, etc. I reflect I was too particular about the use of word. What is important in use of words was how we feel in our mind.
