I totally agree with you! Chad is such a gift to the world. Deeply knowledgeable, great communicator, charitable, authentic, and deeply committed to Christ. He has been a blessing to me on a personal level as well.

@@hebrewbibleinsights He just seems like an overall stand-up guy. And I'm looking forward to watching your other interviews. I'm so glad I was led to your channel!

We are glad you found us too! Looking forward to having along for the journey.

Good correction! I should have said it is a word that is only used to describe snake bites except for this verse in Micah. The point being that the Micah verse elicits serpent imagery. It is still noteworthy that this verb is very rare, only appearing 11 times in the Hebrew Bible all describing or alluding to a specific context. It cold be argued that ancient Hebrew had another word or words to describe biting. This is unfortunately a dynamic that occurs with the limited corpus of ancient Hebrew available to us in the surviving texts. Biblical Hebrew does have other words related to eating or consuming types of actions, and those words are not used in this verse in Micah (even though a number of English translations give that sense by saying “when they have something to eat” or something similar). The Hebrew word usage seems intentional to me, and the serpent allusion is missed in English.

Hagar is typically referred to as the servant or slave of Sara, but she was given to Abram (Abraham PBUH) as a wife (Gen 16:3), but still labeled as a servant and slave afterwards. Evidence: Gen 16:3 So after Abram had been living in Canaan ten years, Sarai his wife took her Egyptian slave Hagar and gave her to her husband to be his wife most will consider her to be of lesser status than Sara, but that doesn't affect the first born son Ishmael (PBUH) as it says in Duet 21:15-17 that the inheritance is still given to the first born son. From looking at the stories of Ishmael (PBUH) and Isaac (PBUH) its clear there is something fishy going on with the translation of the text. Alhamdulillah for Islam, the great nation promised to Ishmael (PBUH) and a fulfillment of Gods promise to Abram/Abraham (PBUH). I already know I'm gonna get haters and that's fine, your all free to believe what you want.

This video is actually about the Shema, not the Mishnah. The Shema is a portion of Scripture in Deuteronomy.

Sounds like you are on an epic journey with the Biblical languages! We are glad to play a role in adding some inspiration. This is a tough question to answer. I think there are definitely pros and cons with the different books regarding learning Biblical Hebrew currently. At the moment, the one I would recommend the most is Learning Biblical Hebrew by Kutz and Josberger. There is a textbook and a workbook that are sold separately as well as an online website with additional resources. The textbook can be heavy with lengthy explanations, so don’t get too bogged down in the details if it gets overwhelming. The workbook is great with a reader for the Joseph story. I appreciate how early they get you reading Biblical text. The online resources will be helpful since you are studying on your own. Good luck on the journey! Feel free to reach out if you ever have any questions.

Thank you for the very kind words! I’m glad this presentation was valuable.

Thanks! Glad you enjoy these types of videos! They are my favorite ones to make! They do take more time than others, but I am looking forward to working on the next Hebrew language insight video

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! That is a profound interpretation! I think the church fathers would be proud of this kind of insight. I think the different angles you take on the lion are very interesting indeed, referencing the shared biblical imagery from other passages. The points you draw from it are right in line with the themes of Samson’s story as well. Sounds to me like you have the workings of a great sermon here!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

I haven’t reached out yet! We have a lot of interviews in the works right now. He is on our upcoming list though.

@@hebrewbibleinsights Awesome to hear! Who else have you guys been in talks with?

May The Lord bless you and keep you in prosperity, joy, and peace.

Good point! The way Ben Sira is used in rabbinic Judaism is very intriguing given that it was not considered canonical within rabbinic Judaism.

it is fully part of the canon - poor you, subservient to a reckless human tradition, began in the 16th century by the deformers

Judaism did not put it into the canon in their Tanakh. It was the Catholic Church that later put it in as the Deuterocanon. @silveriorebelo2920

Glad you enjoyed this! How was it hearing from a fellow Netherlands person?

@@hebrewbibleinsights Haha, ashamed for the way we pronounce english ^^ and sometimes confuse using dutch words and expressions in between the english, but most dutch do that :p But i still think he did a great job and was perfectly able to make it understandable.

We should all indoctrinate children with nonsense like prayer: Nothing fails like prayer in a children's hospital. You trade your last cow for a handful of magic beans & pretend you should be respected for it. We are made illiterate servants of Caesar, "My sheep hear My voice" is the mindset of slavery & Jesus comes "not with peace, but sword", turning everyone to curse the other. The Romans defeated the Jews in war. What Jesus are you talking about? The one doing signs in every chapter or the one rebuking those seeking signs? "The only sign is Jonah:" a believer murdered by other believers because he was outnumbered. The Jew is hung from a tree for all time & the record of this is in the gospels themselves: ua-cam.com/video/xyhv69EFuoM/v-deo.html Proof the Roman Government invented Jesus' story - in 12 minutes. "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, cursed is everyone that hangeth on a tree:" Galatians 3:13 See videos: New research expands on J Atwill's discovery that the story of Jesus is a parody of Emperor' Titus' victories. Paul the Apostle: Liar and Conman | James Valliant, Rabbi Tovia Singer Psalm 22:16 Dead Sea Scrolls and some manuscripts of the Masoretic Text, Septuagint and Syriac; most manuscripts of the Masoretic Text me, / like a lion This verse, which is Psalm 22:17 in the Hebrew verse numbering, reads in most versions of the Masoretic Text as: כארי ידי ורגלי, which may be read literally as "like a lion my hands and my feet". Dogs surround me, a pack of villains encircles me; they pierce[b] my hands and my feet.

Yes! Excited to have this one posted!

He really is! We were glad to have him!

There are some profound insights we can get from Hebrew indeed! Thank you for the support!

Well said! There are so many amazing layers to the story if we are willing to sit with the text long enough. I am grateful for the deep insights that Dr. French has shared here from his research!

This is a great suggestion! These books are at the very least immensely valuable for understanding the Second Temple period which is when some of the Hebrew Bible was still being written and/or edited. This is also the time period of the New Testament. These books are controversial for some today. I would hope that people would at least see the historical context value for the rest of Scripture. We have had a variety of Christian and Jewish scholars on the podcast and have a diverse audience who don’t land on the exact same spot on this issue. For what it’s worth, I (Matthew) am a confessional Anglican, so I also have personal interest in these books since they play a role in the daily office lectionary and the church calendar. Our view as stated in the Book of Common Prayer is that the church reads them for example of life and instruction of manners but does not apply them to establish doctrine. So there is a nuanced approach to applying these books. As I stated earlier, we have a diverse audience, and our modus operandi is to first focus on understanding these books in their original ancient near eastern context and then discussing how they work through the New Testament, the history of the Church, and Christians today. That context becomes more complicated with the influence of Greek and Roman culture for the Apocrypha. Be on the lookout for an upcoming interview with a premier Ben Sira scholar named Panc Beentjes! We already recorded it so it should post in the near future. You might also enjoy a past episode we did with a scholar who did his dissertation on Ben Sira. Thanks again for the thoughtful suggestion!

You’re welcome, and I’m delighted to learn that Pancratius Beentjes will be on! Blessed be the LORD of Israel! The episode featuring Peter Beckman, by the way, was the first one I ever watched. Not only did I immensely relish it, I was edified and encouraged by Beckman’s work, engagement, and testimony. Plus, I was further galvanized in my studies of the Apocrypha and then-new-and-emerging ambition to advance an approach to studying and teaching these Deuterocanonical/Apocryphal books informed by the Reformation and early post-Reformation periods’ Christian Hebraism and the Jacobean Church of England’s rigorous engagement with the Holy Bible.

(Ben Sira is my favorite Apocryphal book. Indeed, we certainly must adopt and apply a nuanced approach to the non-inspired Deuterocanon per our stance exhibited in the XXXIX Articles of the Church of England’s sound position on this matter consonant with the ancient Church’s catechetical use of them for edification and instruction in manners, acknowledging that they cannot be used to establish doctrine since they are not Holy Writ. (Thank you for keeping it confessionally Anglican by the LORD God of Israel’s grace.))

I’m so glad you enjoyed that episode! Peter is such a kind person committed to ministry as well. We need more people engaging in the apocrypha, so I’m glad to hear that you are interested in them.

Ben Sira is also my favorite book of the apocrypha! It happens to be one of our other primary sources of Hebrew that dates to the time before Jesus that is outside of the Hebrew Bible.

So glad you enjoyed it! Dr. French is a treasure trove of knowledge and such an excellent researcher, writer, and presenter.

Glad you’ve been enjoying that series! It’s been really fun to make. That episode is actually already recorded and should come out May 27!

@@hebrewbibleinsights Did I miss this episode? Can't seem to find it on your channel.

You have not missed it. Unfortunately when I went to edit this episode, the audio was messed up, so I have to re-record that episode. I have been in the middle of a long traveling journey where I am unable to record. Once I get back home I will re-record and then release the episode. So sorry about the delay!

@@hebrewbibleinsights thanks for the update! Hope your travels go well. Look forward to listening to the episode once it’s released!

In case you haven’t seen it yet, the next video on Habakkuk 3 has been released!

THANK YOU! they obviously have some type of agenda and its not about getting to the truth. This guy said they were worshipping God in samaria and completely concealed the fact that they had been worshipping demons of the canaanites that jeroboam set up. Unbelievable.
