Does everyone know how to use Hebrew on the computer? Do you have questions about it? How do you do vowels?

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I copy and paste if I have a digital Hebrew bible available on the computer I'm using. I don't on the one I'm using now, as I'm on Linux, but I probably could find it on-line. Actually, I know a Hebrew bible in Linux that works with the fonts, but I haven't got around to installing it yet -- (The synaptic software of Linux on Hebrew and Greek bibles does not do the fonts correctly. For Linux, I like Bible Analyzer, but I think the Hebrew bible part would cost $3, after installing the free package, if I remember correctly. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll post the info.
Hmm... but does the Hebrew font in Bible Analyzer copy and paste? I'm pretty sure it does, as it is some kind of standard font).
But I never looked at typing Hebrew words in a forum. Transliterating is fast and easy, and it was the practice I got used to from years ago, and so far, I haven't had the time to go beyond that. However, I think it would have to be known if this forum has Hebrew fonts available. I don't see them on the list in the Reply to Thread box, but I'm sure copy and paste works here.
P.S. My gosh, what am I thinking? I do have a Hebrew bible on this Linux partition. I had downloaded the JPS 1917 version for free. However, it is very hard to copy and paste, because it uses tables and sets out the English beside the Hebrew. But this is a neat bible. If anyone wants it, I'll get the link and post it.

Yep. It reads in the Arial font. Maybe you could download the SBL Hebrew font and tell it to show in that font?

I'm only familiar with Windows systems (98 to 7) and how they operate with the various Hebrew options. I don't have a clue about Macintosh or Linux. If copy-and-paste works for you, you might check out the Hebrew "virtual keyboard" at Hebrew Virtual Keyboard | Mikledet. Is there anything like a "character map" on Linux?

So what are you saying, you can't see the Hebrew on there,because I can???
I was using a Hebrew keyboard online and C&P it here.
Where can I get this SBL font and how do I 'tell it to show in that font'?

You can get the font here: http://www.sbl-site.org/Fonts/SBL_Hbrw.ttf
To get it to display here is another trick. We'll have to talk about that later. It's 4:20am in Israel.
