I’m Chaldean/Assyrian (indigenous Christian Iraqi) and my native language is Aramaic. Hearing Johnathon pray the Our Father in Aramaic was absolutely beautiful. May God continue to bless Jonathon and continue to guide him in portraying Jesus in this magnificent series! 🙏

[Unxpekted]

I am Syriac Orthodox, the religious lineage of the disciples. Our entire mass is in Aramaic. Thank you for this beautiful prayer in the language that King Yeshua spoke!

Edit: I am Syriac Orthodox from Palestine. Please keep Palestinian Christians in your heart and prayers. Right now Christ would be buried under rubble at the hands of evil men. Ty! 🇵🇸✝️🙏🏼

Jesus Christ rescued me from slavery.

In any language, the Lord's prayer is beautiful and powerful!

God's Hand is all over this show and everyone in it. SO grateful.

[mountainmama]

I’m praying for all involved in this production. That the gospel will be shared to millions through it and that millions might be saved. God bless all of you.

[hananmati]

I am Chaldean/Assyrian. Aramaic is my language and this how we pray. God bless everyone

[TheRealJohnDoe.]

I'm syriac orthodox. His accent is not great, and I believe he cut it short, but I'm proud of him for trying and for introducing this to the rest of the western world. Every christian needs to know the lord's prayer in Aramaic because it's beautiful.

[GoTellJesusSaves]

I've heard this prayer before in Aramaic, but this has to be the most spiritually powerful one I've heard yet.

[UrbanNoizeMusic]

There's just something about hearing that prayer in the language that Jesus would've spoken. Brings us that much closer to such an intimate, passionate and powerful moment in His life. And The Chosen does the same with the impact Jesus had on people's lives. Through the deep, tangible and personable relationships he had. To the compassion, grace and truth he displayed. Wrapped up in absolutely approachable humanity we longed to be near.

Very happy to hear Aramaic language through Jonathan who has already won our heart playing Jesus.

[mmaakkiinn]

I'm Greek Orthodox this was beautiful hearing the language used by our lord Jesus Christ...may it be heard in all languages so all can be Blessed 🙌

[saulsj]

I think that Jonathan making that tiny mispronounciation at the end makes it even better, so we're reminded through Jonathan that we should be humble in our fallibleness, but courageous and joyful when trying to get to Jesus as close as we possibly can.
Like: "God, I'm far from perfect, but here's my everything, for you".

Also, something cool about The Chosen is that it doesn't just give good fruit with the episodes of the show, but with the whole process of the production, and the lives of the people involved that come together into a whole "macro-story" for everyone's growth. It's getting to a point that production and people become as important and beautiful as the actual show.

[LibraryofSofiyah]

How many folks here can agree that it is now quite difficult to read the gospel texts without hearing Jonathan's voice and picturing him and the other actors as their respective apostles in their mind's eye? Perfect casting.

[VanillaD]

It gives me goosebumps ….Heavenly Father forgive me all of my sins in the name of Jesus Amen 😢

[ItsChrisFtw]

Our fellow Catholic brother! This was absolutely beautiful. Bless you, the entire crew and everyone there!
Deo Gratias, Viva Cristo Rey!!
