I base my understanding of this passage on the Hebrew word for "likeness" or "Image" (depending on your translation). The word is Tzelem, which literally translates "Shadow". So, I see it as we are merely shadows of what God is and not exact copies. The modern Hebrew word for "Photograph" even...

Well, that depends on which letters you use. The Biblical letters, or the modern ones...:doh:

Ok, whatever dude. I mean, that would totally screw up the whole Hebrew bible, but whatever. Waw and Vav are still the same letter and always have been. Hey and Chet have never been the same letter. I guess Samech and the Final Mem are the same letter, too. I mean, they look the same and stuff. :D

LOL. You're kidding, right? Modern Hebrew isn't exactly the same as Biblical Hebrew? That's your argument? First off, it's more similar than you think. Secondly, the letters in "Elomim" haven't changed over time. If you look in the dead sea scrolls, you'll see that the letters are...

I stopped reading the original post when I saw that you translated "Elohim" as "God of Life". אלהים (Elohim) is the plural form of אל (El), or "The God" and אלחים (Elochaim, or God of Life) is nowhere in scripture. The words...

I'm actually having a hard time seeing it. :blush:

Ahem* Luke 6:11 Now it happened, the day after, that He went into a city called Naim; and many of His disciples went with Him, and a large crowd. And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large...

Look up 'Human Being' in a Hebrew dictionary. You'll see בן אדם son of Adam, or בן אנוש (Ben Enush) son of man.

No, he didn't have to. But God introduced himself, and he chose to follow (seek) the real God, and he turned his back on the god of religion. If he had just become a more 'liberal' Muslim, how would that glorify God?

The header says "In the name of the Merciful, A good sign and Good Luck" (B'shem Ha'Rachmon, B'simon Tov, u'bmazel Tov.) The smaller print is a little harder to make out since some of the letters look so similar in stitches. The word above the first column is B'Revi'i (on/for the fourth day)...

More proof that the Jewish people at the time of Yeshua spoke Hebrew and NOT Aramaic.

This thread is to explain how to set up a standard American keyboard to type in Hebrew with the standard Israeli keyboard layout. This is just for Windows XP, so if it's different for Macs or Vista, please feel free to post a tutorial for those operating systems. If you don't have Hebrew...

I have my keyboard set up to type in Hebrew when I hit Shift+Alt. I'll post a new thread telling how to do it so I don't get this thread sidetracked.

Are we going in order? I see Alef and Bet. גיל - Gail (Ga-eel) - Joy, Happiness. Comes from the root word גל (gal) which means to rotate, turn or spin, and brings to mind someone spinning around, laughing with joy. גאלה - Gulah -...

I'm going to do a little more digging around in the Tenach, but these were just some verses I remember reading recently, and they just happened to be in the Brit Chadasha. Just by looking on Unbound Bible, there appear to be 628 occurrences in the Tenach. קום Strong's...
