He should have said so?
The use of Aramaic remains somewhat awkward. Irrespective of one's language of discourse, one would expect someone steeped in Jewish scripture to quote that scripture in Hebrew.

Depends on the context and audience.

So you think Jesus always had to address someone or express a verse from the OT in Hebrew just because it was written in Hebrew - now that is a non sequitur.

Actually a number of the verses quoted by Jesus show quite clearly he was using the Septuagint.

"had to"? By moving from talk of expectation to talk of compulsion you distort the discussion.

Or it shows that he was using a Septuagint vorlage, or - in my opinion more likely - that those authors creating the dialogue were using the Septuagint.

You don't make any sense!

In light of what I have offered why do you find it unexpected that Jesus spoke Aramaic or that he quoted the OT in Aramaic esp. when Hebrew and Aramaic coexisted, the LXX was already in existence (And possibly an Aramaic version of some type as well), and the fact that the NT records Jesus speaking in Aramaic? Why did you feel it necessary to inteject in the discussion that I was having with Woodrow? Why did you feel it necessary to respond with such absolutness when I said that context and audience matter - your response was - 'No it does not' - without any further explanation. Sounds like more than just a passing comment about expectation. There is nothing unexpected or odd (as Woodrow thought) about Jesus speaking Aramaic or quoting OT verses in Aramaic.

Shiloh1, my orthodox son-in-law, raised in Chicago, quotes scripture far more fluently in Hebrew than in English despite not being particularly fluent in conversational Hebrew. A presumably learned and observant sect leader of the 2nd Temple Period would have engaged in a disciplined reading and discussion of Hebrew text - in Hebrew - almost daily throughout his life. It matters little whether or not he used Aramaic in normal conversation; when referencing scripture he would have been far more likely to employ the Hebrew that he had read, chanted, and discussed over and over and over again. Why do you suppose that the DSS scriptural material is overwhelmingly in Hebrew and overwhelmingly proto-Masoretic?

Can I know this with certainty? Of course not. But I believe that I have a better sense of how Jews today talk Torah, and it's hard for me to believe that Jesus as portrayed would be any less reliant on Hebrew sources. This is one of the reasons I believe that much (if not most) of Jesus lore was fabricated decades later by Hellenized Jews (at best) in the diaspora.
