    Hebrew was the language of the Old Testament, so he must have been able to understand it, if not speak it fluently.
    Greek was also an important language at the time. It was the language of the major cities. Thus, Jesus was able to speak with a Roman soldier.

    Aramaic, Hebrew and Greek. His primary language was probably Aramaic.

    It is quite obvious that his first language must have been Galilean Aramaic. He also has had to speak Hebrew quite well. Both languages are closely related.

    Greek was probably seen as a trade language, much like English is seen today in some areas of the world. It is likely that he knew some Greek, although not to the extent of the Semitic languages.

    I don't think he knew Latin any more than a few words or expressions, even if he appears on films speaking in Latin to Pilate. That is, without the divine mode on, of course.

    Aren't Aramaic and Hebrew very close anyway?
