      No offense to TheBibleinHebrew, but for reading in English, I love Robert Alter's new English translation of the Tanakh (Old Testament). Alter is a Jewish Hebrew scholar and I'm a Christian, so no bias. It's a literal word for word English translation from the Hebrew. He changes the word order from verb first to subject first, that's all. It's very enjoyable to read.

      Psalm 97:9 For thou, YHWH, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all ELOHIM.
      Genesis 1 is ELOHIM (Lucifer and the fallen angels).
      They made this realm.
      They made man in their image. (tares)
      Man is an idol, a trap to hunt angels.
      Genesis 2:7 the Lord God forms His representative in their system. (wheat)
      One Gospel:
      Gospel (GOOD ANGEL) of Reconciliation.
      Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom
      to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself.
      We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness.
      If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever.
      Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of ELOHIM(gods).
      REPENT FALLEN ANGELS.

      I am a member of the church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints (nickname Mormon) and NO we do not believe ‘Jehovah and Elohim are two different people.’ (Your cousin is mistaken)
      Elohim is plural (Father/Son & Holy Spirit) and Jehovah (which pronounced name comes from YHWH: YeHoVaH )is one of the Elohim. Therefore Jehovah and the Elohim are the same. It is Hebrew that recognizes that Elohim is plural. And it was Yeshua/Jesus (as the Son) who acknowledged the Father (in the Lord’s Prayer) and the Holy Spirit in the Pentecost. They are 3 personages that are ONE. (Like 3 different flashlights shining their light on the same spot on the wall.)

    I’ve been learning biblical and modern Hebrew since Covid lockdowns, a few years ago. This series is a blessing. Please keep it up. Nothing beats the original language of the scripture!
    As an aside, I wonder if there are any thoughts on עור (ore) for skin in Gen 3 and אור (ore) for light in Gen 1? Does the Hebrew suggest that garments of עור (ore) skin, were a substitute for garments of אור (ore) light?

    • @TheBibleInHebrew
      @TheBibleInHebrew  3 дні тому

      Thanks for the comment.
      The letters Alef and Ayin (א and ע) are pronounced the same in modern Hebrew (and similar in the traditional pronunciation).
      However, those are two separate letters that cannot be replaced by each other.
      It's a bit like Q and K or "some" and "sum". The fact that they sound the same doesn't make them related.
      This is of course from the linguistics point of view.

    Magnificent job, thank you. I am studying the bible and im learning the hebrew alphabet, so this video really comes from “the skies”. Most Hebrew courses around are made by non-native speakers and their pronunciation is very deficient. For example they usually pronounce the Hebrew R exactly as the American R, which is very disappointing. They also miss the fact thar the aleph is actually a glottal stop in many cases. I hope you can make more emphasis in pronunciation in future videos, because it’s not easy to find the right pronunciation around and less in the biblical context. I also hope that you can mention more contrasts between the old vs. modern Hebrew. I find it quite instructive. Thank you very much.

    Plural for the name of God makes sense with the doctrine of the Trinity. Additionally, in older English, "the heavens" plural usually refers to the sky, vs heaven where God is. So the translation into English is remarkably quite good.
    Japanese also reads left to right, and has the words "wa" and "desu ka" that can feel like "et".
    Fascinating stuff!

      Just so you know... that plural word God, that you think proves the trinity, in Hebrew gets translated in the Septuagint (the one that Jesus used) to SINGULAR God. Greek word "theos" g2316, look it up... jus sayin....

    THANK YOU
    May the Lord bless you and this study, it is very interesting and useful. I find it much more useful than a sterile grammar lesson. I have a biblical hebrew book at home (barely touched), but I find the way you explained this much more interesting. For me learning a language through it's linguistic, finding also the replies to the grammar questions I face during my studies is much more efficient than only memorizing something. Moreover, finding the true meaning of a word enriches the understanding of the Word of God.
    Again, thank you, and many many blessings!

    The middle word in the middle of the 7 words, את . Aleph and teth, is the central word. The most important. The Alpha and the Omega, the first and last letter of the Hebrew alphabet, the whole Torah. It is the Mashiah who links heaven and earth, in the 2nd part of the verse. Thanks for the great teaching 😊

      @MonkeyStarship 4 місяці тому +1

      It might. But it is also grammatically correct. It is a connection between John 1:1 and Genesis 1:1. That it says it twice is even more important. Jesus claims to be the Aleph and the Tav. He claims to be that word that appears to be without any meaning. Scholars of the day would have understood that. He claims to be the one who had hands on the total creation of all things both all things that are the ground (other planets included) and all things above the grounds. The very word Beresheet confirms this when you break it down. It means-The Son of the great and powerful shepherd broke himself upon a cross for all mankind.
      See, there is beyond multiple layers to the writings of the Word of The LORD. Have a blessed week!

    Thank you so much! I am learning to read the New Testament in Koine Greek and started the Septuagint as a supplemental text, but to see the hidden meaning in the first two words of Hebrew in Genesis is astonishing! Also, I love comparing Genesis chapter 1 with John Chapter 1, as John being Jewish was led by the Holy Spirit to help new gentile believers build a proper foundation and theology by borrowing the same style of Genesis for explaining the creation account to people who had never heard it before and did not speak Hebrew.

    I'm looking forward to watching your channel grow and participating in the learning modules as you present them.
    I'm currently studying /learning the Hebrew language and understand that there are many layers to work through.
    Having several transliterated versions as well as the JPS Hebrew-English TANAKH תנייך ; I'm keen to gain a more in depth understanding in this amazing language.
    As a note: I've picked up in my research (please don't ask me to recall where) that the use of את throughout scripture is to remind us that Yehoshua Ha Mashiach; being the א and the ת is the beginning and the end; "the first and the last". Isaiah 48:12
    "I AM the א and the ת" says the LORD. Revelation 1:8
    Please keep these highly informative studies coming, we all need to keep in mind; we are one flock with ONE Shepherd.

    Some of the translation problems are the result of antiquated English. Long ago, "the heavens" referred to the sky, but "Heaven" (capital H) referred to the dwelling place of G-d. "The earth" or "earth" referred to the ground, specifically soil/dirt, but "Earth" (capital E) referred to the planet. This was truly fascinating. I can't wait to learn more. Very grateful to you for providing this!
