I wrote this article a long while back during my undergraduate years studying under Mahlon H. Smith at Rutgers University. Where it’s not a formal article, and still needs a lot of work, there have been a number of requests to re-post it, so you can now find it in the Articles section of the site.

In short it is about the pericope known as the True Children of Abraham Debate in the Gospel of John (chapter 8-ish) that, while compiled and redacted in Greek, seems to have a very strong Aramaic under-layer due to wordplay that does not exist in Greek.
