I don't agree with everything George Lamsa wrote, but he seems like a knowledgeable source. He published a translation of the Bible from the Peshitta (Aramaic version) though I have not purchased this yet.

Another author who I want to look into more is Rocco Errico, who has written a few books with a similar approach.

I have personally found the works of Neil Douglas-Klotz to be very illuminating in the area of approaching the teachings of Jesus from the Aramaic -- especially The Hidden Gospel, which I've quoted from a few times in my journal:
