Best Answer

The diaspora of the Jews caused the language to no longer be spoken in the land of Israel, though Arabic is a daughter of Aramaic, so even during the early Arabian conquests, a form of Aramaic persisted. However, the Jewish people never stopped using Aramaic altogether. The Oral law, recorded in the volumes of the Gemara (Talmud) are written in Bavli and Yerushalmi Aramaic. Thus, scholarship among devout Jews maintains a healthy level of Aramaic.
