Along with using multiple translations, another set of tools that will greatly aid in encountering the Scriptures as Jesus'
first disciples did is to familiarize yourself with some of the Bible's Hebrew words. Why Hebrew? Well, Hebrew is God's
heart language---the mother tongue of the Scriptures Jesus read. Hebrew is an extremely rich, poetic language that
looks at the world in very different ways than English. Grasping the depth of even a few words greatly clarifies and enriches
reading and casts new light on things that you thought you understood.

Hebrew is helpful for reading not just the Old Testament but the New Testament too. Although the New Testament was
written in Greek, it was composed almost entirely by Jews growing up in a Semitic-thinking culture. Often Hebrew's deep,
rich pigments diffuse through, showing evidence of the writer's original "accent."

Take, for instance, the word walk, which in Biblical Hebrew is halakh (ha-LAKH) and is widely used as a metaphor to describe
one's moral lifestyle, as in Psalm 1:1, "Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked." In Greek this is
normally not the case. The word for walk is peripateo, and it simply means "to stroll around" or "travel on foot." Yet the
New Testament often uses it with a Hebraic sense instead. Jesus was asked why his disciples did not "walk" according to the
tradition of the elders (Mark 7:5), and Paul exhorted the Thessalonians to "walk" in order to please God (I Thess. 4:1).
a Greek reader would have scratched his head at why Paul wanted his listeners to "stroll around to please God." It's only
when we recognize Paul's Jewish, Hebraic accent that his intent becomes clear.

Once again, Martin Luther shares a wise thought with us:

If I were young, I would contrive a way and means for the perfect learning of the Hebrew tongue, which is both glorious and
profitable, and without which the Hole Scriptures cannot rightly be understood; yet it is full of the Hebrew kind of speaking,
from whence it is truly said, "The Hebrews drink out of the fountain, the Grecians out of the springs that flow from the fountain,
the Latins out of the ponds.

Shalom

It is the mother tongue of the Tanakh. The Bible is a Jewish ✡️ book written by Jews ✡️ whose primary language is Hebrew..
When Adonai gave the 10 commandments to Moses it was in Hebrew. Because that was the only language that Moses spoke.

Languages that are gendered are Paganized. Also the non-Orthodox Rabbi's altered the Hebrew language. The Hebrews in Egypt spoke Egyptian which has similarities to Akkadian and Aramaic, for which became Hebrew.

The earliest examples of written Paleo-Hebrew date back to the 10th century BCE.[18] Nearly all of the Hebrew Bible is written in Biblical Hebrew, with much of its present form in the dialect that scholars believe flourished around the 6th century BCE, during the time of the Babylonian captivity. For this reason, Hebrew has been referred to by Jews as Lashon Hakodesh (לְשׁוֹן הַקֹּדֶש, lit. 'the holy tongue' or 'the tongue [of] holiness') since ancient times. The language was not referred to by the name Hebrew in the Bible, but as Yehudit (transl. 'Judean') or Səpaṯ Kəna'an (transl. "the language of Canaan").[1][note 2] Mishnah Gittin 9:8 refers to the language as Ivrit, meaning Hebrew; however, Mishnah Megillah refers to the language as Ashurit, meaning Assyrian, which is derived from the name of the alphabet used, in contrast to Ivrit, meaning the Paleo-Hebrew alphabet.[19]

Hebrew belongs to the Canaanite group of languages. Canaanite languages are a branch of the Northwest Semitic family of languages.[35]

Hebrew was the spoken language in the Iron Age kingdoms of Israel and Judah during the period from about 1200 to 586 BCE.[36][37] Epigraphic evidence from this period confirms the widely accepted view that the earlier layers of biblical literature reflect the language used in these kingdoms.[37] Furthermore, the content of Hebrew inscriptions suggests that the written texts closely mirror the spoken language of that time.[37]

Scholars debate the degree to which Hebrew was a spoken vernacular in ancient times following the Babylonian exile when the predominant international language in the region was Old Aramaic.

Hebrew was extinct as a colloquial language by late antiquity, but it continued to be used as a literary language, especially in Spain, as the language of commerce between Jews of different native languages, and as the liturgical language of Judaism, evolving various dialects of literary Medieval Hebrew, until its revival as a spoken language in the late 19th century.[38][39]

Moses lived in the Egyptian court for the first forty years, and in Midian for the middle forty years. Before the age of 80, he didn't have many opportunities to speak Hebrew. So he said to the Lord that he is clumsy and tongue tied.

The Pentecostal pouring of the Holy Spirit recorded in the Book of Acts is mainly celebrated by Jewish people from various countries. The dialects spoken by Jewish Jesus believers are approximately 70 according to Jewish interpretation, corresponding to 70 major ethnic groups worldwide. The logical precision of Jews may be slightly lower than that of the British, but Jews can piece together fragments of global culture into a whole picture. Of course, this requires global collaboration.The performance of the Holy Spirit's Great Pouring in Acts is a language drama in which Hebrew and approximately 70 major global languages collaborate. Hebrew has a special central position. The name Israel means' defeating angels', and any nation must study the Hebrew Bible in order to have a good future and a way out of Idols.

Human languages originate from the same source. The Pentecostal pouring of the Holy Spirit recorded in the Book of Acts (the redemption pattern of God through the death and resurrection of Jesus) is a restoration and healing of tongue disorder of the Tower of Babel (the human's false "heavenly" pattern).

How is it that Noah names Kanaan before he is born? Hebrew is the language of Adam, and of all the patriarchs before the flood, and passed through Noah to his three sons, and to Kanaan, and from Kanaan to the Kanaanite tribes. The Kanaanite tribes, at least at first, spoke pure Hebrew which they learned from Kanaan, who learned it from his stepfather Noah.

Since you do not appear to understand the Torah perhaps you should refrain from running around accusing people of promoting false narratives.

Noach does not name him, because he is not his offspring.
Kena'an is the son of Ham according to B'resheet 9:18, 9:22, 10:6
Shalom

Where did I say Ham was not the father of Kanaan?
That is not what I said: I called Noah the stepfather of Kanaan, and Noah did indeed name him.

Genesis 9:24-25 KJV
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.

Leviticus 18:8 KJV
8 The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness.

Therefore Noah had every right to name Kanaan since it was Noah's wife who was pregnant with Kanaan by her son Ham who forced her. And Noah also raised the child, (Kanaan), in order to thwart the machinations of Ham. Look up also "the age-old alpha male struggle" for further enlightenment. Ham was trying to take over the clan by humiliating his father and raping his own mother, (his father's nakedness, Lev 18:8). That is why Ham came forth from the tent and proudly proclaimed his evil deed to his brethren: but they rejected Ham's plot and honored their father Noah.

Your ignorance of biblical history is amazing. You are totally wrong. That tells me you are not Jewish but a fake.
Every Jew knows Kena'an is the son of Ham as I previously posted with Hebrew Scripture. You need to yourself
a favor and drop your KJV in a garbage dumpster. Noach is not the stepfather of Kena'an. Noach is his grandfather.
You need to study and learn the Hebrew Scriptures instead of pretending and making false narratives, heresy and
blasphemous statements to keep on embarrassing yourself.

Strong's Lexicon

Usage: The term "Canaan" refers to both a person and a geographical region in the Bible. As a person, Canaan is the son of Ham and the grandson of Noah. As a region, Canaan denotes the land promised by God to Abraham and his descendants, encompassing modern-day Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, and parts of Syria and Jordan. The term is often used to describe the inhabitants of this land, known as the Canaanites, who were known for their idolatrous practices and were often in conflict with the Israelites.

Englishman's Concordance
Genesis 9:18
HEB: ה֖וּא אֲבִ֥י כְנָֽעַן׃
NAS: and Ham was the father of Canaan.
KJV: and Ham [is] the father of Canaan.
INT: he was the father of Canaan

Genesis 9:22
HEB: חָ֚ם אֲבִ֣י כְנַ֔עַן אֵ֖ת עֶרְוַ֣ת
NAS: the father of Canaan, saw
KJV: the father of Canaan, saw
INT: Ham the father of Canaan the nakedness of his father

You have no Scriptural support for your lies and heresy. Like I said earlier pure conjecture at best.
Why do you pervert Adonai's Word? Are you one of those "fake" counterfeit Christians? My 8 year old son
knows more about the Hebrew Scriptures than you do.

All as expected: you've become extremely predictable. So then, feel free to continue believing ignorant scholars who say that Proto-Canaanite/Phoenician probably came first if that helps you feel better.

PS: I don't need the KJV, but why do you resort to Strong's? Yikes!

Moreover your mezuza thread disproves every word of lashon hara you have spoken against me here on this board, (and against quite a few others here also that I have noticed).


Your understanding of the whole Torah and the Prophets and the Writings is the way of the Perushim: outward, physical, and carnal. And you prove by way of your own divisive and hateful words that your interpretations and understandings do you no good whatsoever and are merely self-righteousness: for your house is obviously full of mezuzot, and on the front door coming in or going out, and yet you cannot do what you say that is supposed help to you remember to do, for cannot come to this forum and post without vilifying and speaking lashon hara against anyone who disagrees with your Pharisee way. The commandment profits you nothing because you have nullified it with your vain, outward, carnal minded tradition of men, and the name of the Father is blasphemed among the heathen because of you, as Yeshayah says.

If anyone here doubts this, simply go read the mezuza thread linked above: you will see the blazing hypocrisy.
