I found this nice lecture on the book of Genesis through the functional view of John Walton, I felt it was pretty enlightening regarding the Hebrew observed in the book of Genesis. It this talk, Walton reflects on Adam and Eve's mortality, he touches on the relationship between Genesis 1 and 2...

Daniel 9:25 has been a bit of an intriguing language puzzle, since in ancient times they didn't use punctuation marks. The verse runs in Hebrew: ותדע ותשכל מן־מצא דבר להשיב ולבנות ירושלם עד־משיח נגיד שבעים שבעה ושבעים ששים ושנים תשוב ונבנתה רחוב וחרוץ ובצוק העתים׃ Word for word, this says...

Exodus 28:42 reads (NKJV): And you shall make for them linen trousers to cover their nakedness; they shall reach from the waist to the thighs [emphasis mine]. Based on references I've come across, it does appear that the command to cover “to the thighs” means they needed to cover all the...

Firstly it’s a Biblical fact that Abraham was born on 1948am, and YHWH revived Israel in 1948ad. Secondly there was the 6th day war with victory on the 7th day, in 1967. Just like the battle of Jericho, YHWH gave us victory on the 7th day, despite being totally outnumbered. then we have the...

Hi Everybody! This thread is a continuation of a side topic from here: Does inappropriate contenteia (usually translated as sexual immorality or fornication) go too far or not far enough Reading over the posts between Der Alte and myself should give the proper context, starting here Does inappropriate contenteia (usually...

That the Greek New Testament was manipulated is quite clear. It has been proven that the Septuagint contained the name of God and they were so respectful that they kept the name after the Hebrew language. So they did not "translate" a name, but left it as it was. But then, later on, people...

Hi, its been a while since I broached my topic concerning ancient calendar astronomy mentioned in the Bible. Latest is a short video that I’m posting for anyone interested in the subject. It’s about a ’50-year’ festival, akin to our century celebrations, except that it was tied into the old...

Can and will anybody help me with a word?: Entry for Strong's #892 - בָּבָה Which is transliterated "bâbâh" I am trying to get it to be "babeh"; how would it look and would it change the meaning?

Genesis verses 1:14-19 seem to belong after verse 1:5. I have long been a student of Genesis, especially chapters 1-3, and I came across this odd observation/problem/solution a few years ago, not 'because' of any problem related to the creation events, but purely from a 'linguistic' observation...

This question is based mainly by comparing it with Hebrew. Even though Greek was the main language used in the Christian world in the age of the Apostles and the Early Church, the language of the New Testament, and the Septuagint, a lot of people still use Hebrew. I don't see anyone calling...

Hello, I see two quite different translations of Proverbs 28:5 into English. In the NIV the verse is translated: "Evildoers do not understand what is right, but those who seek the LORD understand it fully." Here it is on BibleHub. Many translations are similar, but some of the more literal...

Howdy! I'm curious about that because some say Hebrew because it was talked by the Jews and the Old Testament (if you don't believe in the Deuterocanon) was solely written in Hebrew. Why others say Greek because of the New Testament and that it was the language used by the Church. What do you...

Some believe a complete chronology from creation to present can be made using the Bible. I attempted to make such a chronology, but ran into a problem when I got to Jacob and his twelve sons. Using the genealogies of Adam and Shem found in the Book of Genesis, it's clear to see that it was 1880...

Have Modern Day Christian forgot Jesus's Hebrew roots? The word for Christian in Hebrew is "Mashiachim" which means "Annointed Ones/ Followers of Messiah"! When the disciples were first called "Christian/ Mashiachim" these individual was Jews only! The spirit of many Modern Day Christian are in...

Has anyone heard of this? Just saw a YouTube by Shofar Ministries called Amazing: Jesus Discovered in Ancient Code in the Old Testament The beginning at 3:30 point minutes, he states a professor played a couple of Psalms substituting the Hebrew letter to it's equivalent Hebrew musical note...
