3. The Minions of Sitra Akhra. Sitra Akhra could be translated "the other side".
Some philosophers believed that all things were created by and subject to God (including demons),
but others wondered if the things which were so unspeakably evil had
their origins in another realm outside of God's command, or at least
if there was a place forsaken by God, or where the inhabitants had no respect for God at all.
This produced the idea of Sitra Akhra, which I suppose is the closest
I've seen to a classical Hell in the Christian sense, where the inhabitants are purely evil
and have completely forsaken God, existing only to satisfy their perverted whims. The demon Samael
(who is often equated with Satan) is sometimes said to live here.
Anything from Sitra Akhra would be completely evil, malevolent, and very dangerous.
アラム語の語彙集で比較的廉価で入手しやすいものとしては、
An Aramaic Handbook PART I/2 GLOSSARY, edited by Franz Rosental, 1967. \4180+税?
があります。銀座の教文館書店5F洋書コーナーなら常備しているでしょう。
ただ、これに限らず、古典アラム語の辞書・語彙集はヘブライ文字で表記・配列されていることが
多いので、ヘブライ文字を読めることが必須になります。

映画『パッション』のDVDの該当部分を聴き、英語字幕を確認しましたが、
シリア語訳聖書「ペシッタ」の記述とは別のものです。
アラム語訳担当のWilliam Fulco教授が
英文字幕「Amen, I tell you, on this day, you shall be with me in paradise.」
を元にアラム諸語の語彙を参照しながら翻訳したのでしょう。
