i’m not arguing if one or more of the 12 know greek or are even fluent in greekWe don’t know for sure. It’s probable that at least some were fluent in Greek, as it was the common tongue of the region at the times they would have used it. Especially if they were fishermen, or tax collectors, etc., who would deal with non-Jews on a daily basis.
i’m fluent in english. when i’m around other filipinos who are also, at variying levels, know english, we speak in Filipino. because thats our native tongue
thats how the Chinese are
thats how the Mexicans are
thats how the French are
etc.
even if you’re an expert in a second or third language, when you’re around people who speak a common native tongue, you will always, 90% of the time, speak in the native tongue
