I serve at a little, modern non-denominational church, but was raised Roman catholic on the cusp of Vatican 2. I miss the ritual experiences, where I really felt the presence of the Holy. I know the Lord is still with me where I serve, but I have to make my own ritual spaces to experience that holy beauty. Thank God for His Creation!
Thank you, again. This is one of my favorite sights to learn basic Paleo Hebrew. And I love the music and pleasant narration. May Yah continue to bless you!
I have been studying the bible for about 50 years and the way you explain it with such an additional information makes me happy. I try to dig deeper in the original Hebrew language which is not easy for me. You make each time so delightful to reach the hearts of many so we can worship our dear and loving Creator. I am looking forward to the Kingdom to restore all that greedy Society has destroyed. Thank you very much and I am looking forward to more.
Thank you for the teaching, bless as you are blessed! The rosh comes to his body soon, the bridegroom to his bride, the uniting of Christ revealed for the world to see. He prepares his elect and brings them from the four corners to rule the nations and cities with rods of iron. The time is short and the enemy is in full panic mode, the lion doesn't roar when it is strong and hunting but when it is trying to scare you off. Our enemy is a roaring lion, he is afraid of us because we wear the armour of God and wield his sword. Speak the word to wield the sword, and stand steadfast behind your shield of faith, your helmet is the hope of salvation and your loins are girded with truth. The breastplate of love and faith makes us righteous so love your enemies and bless those that curse you and pray for those who despitefully use and persecute you because you are children of the most high and the kingdom is your inheritance and none shall take it from your Father's hands.
What an awesome blessing to begin the day with...thank-you. I have been anticipating this for the last couple of days, and have been watching older videos. Awesome to see that Lucky got some good headshots in there, too. I love you beautiful people (and Lucky); you’re awesome servants of an awesome God. Shalom 🕊❤️🙏🐑🍇
Hello, your channel is amazing, also thank you for making the Picto font and even putting the whole Old Testament in Picto Hebrew. I was wondering, what if you guys made a playlist of you just reading the Psalms in Hebrew? Or even the Ten Commandments and ongoing other passages of the Bible.
I love your videos. They are absolutely the best I've seen. I have been obsessed with Paleo Hebrew for a long time, and I'm extremely happy to have found your work. I am so eager to see video #21 on SHIN. Thank you from the bottom of my heart...
Shalom and yes! There’s a free font download on the website, at the bottom of the Paleo Bible page. Works with Word, Excel, etc and we use it for our Excel Bible. It’s mapped to the Hebrew Standard keyboard so the way I use it is I turn on the onscreen keyboard, and set it to the Hebrew Standard. Here’s a link: www.fathersalphabet.com/paleo-bible/ If you can’t get it to work, let me know and I’ll make everyone a quick video. Shalom unto Jerusalem
Great OH lesson as usual, ya'll! I enjoyed that pop quiz, def knowing the Word helps😄 btw, Resh (in modern Hebrew) is the hardest letter/sound for me to pronounce when speaking Hebrew...I sometimes fluctuate between the Modern Hebrew pronunciation and the Sephardic because, well, I'm more comfortable rolling the "r" and it just naturally comes out that way. But I also think that may be closer to the original pronunciation, any thoughts? Abba bless you both, shalom 🕊
Shalom. Thanks for the comment. No one knows the ancient pronunciation. We think Father is ok with us all trying to learn His words in our various accents until the day HE teaches us Himself. We tend to think Sephardic is closest to how the language originally sounded, but with more breath given to each letter and in each word. Shalom unto Jerusalem.
@@originalhebrewseries Amen, I can't wait for that day when we will all speak His holy, heavenly language singing His praises day and night with one accord הללויה ! Thank you for your thoughts on the matter of the Sephardim, pronunciation-wise. His people know His voice in all languages regardless :)
may Yah bless you guys his word is so true , i got a song coming out tommorow about the Resh and the Vav man ....thanks for the studies your friend always ; Real Juan Cyr
The cyrillic letter equivalent to Resh (R) looks just like the letter P. What's interesting is that it looks at lot like Resh (a head) but turned the other way.
This is an awesome channel. Thank you for the content. I was wondering did you ever consider reading a psalm every week or so in Hebrew like a psalms playlist. I’m studying the psalms on your website and I’m hoping to be pronouncing the words correctly
Hope your Paleolithic journey is going well ! If Aleph is worth a thousand words ! How much is Aleph Bet worth ? Priceless !!!!!!! Aleph Tav and everything in between!!!!!!!!!
Dawson I really enjoy the sound of your voice and the lyrics are beautiful but it doesn't sound like you're playing in 440. I kind of hope I'm right about...
I came across your website and was excited to be able to type the Semitic Paleo Hebrew... I downloaded the OHfont and installed it but when I type, it comes out in English... I hope I just did something wrong... PS: I installed it a second time with the same results... Using Windows 11 Desktop PC
Shalom. The font is keyed to the Hebrew Standard Alphabet. We created it in order to display the Paleo Bible, but if you would like to type with it, that's possible as well and I've had success with it in Windows. I first had to go to Language settings and add Hebrew as a language. For me (Windows 10), that placed an icon in my taskbar where I can now switch from ENG to HEB. Next step is bring up the onscreen keyboard and switch the language to HEB. The onscreen keys should then show up in the modern Hebrew rather than English, and if you have the font in Word or wherever you're typing set to OHfont, you'll be typing in Paleo. If you can't get it to work, let me know, and I'll try to make a quick video for everyone. Shalom unto Jerusalem.
Remind me this verse after waking up: And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen. (Genesis 8:5 KJV) וְהַמַּיִם הָיוּ הָלוֹךְ וְחָסוֹר עַד הַחֹדֶשׁ הָעֲשִׂירִי בָּעֲשִׂירִי בְּאֶחָד לַחֹדֶשׁ נִרְאוּ רָאשֵׁי הֶהָרִים׃ (בראשית 8:5 1995MH) So, ten, עשר, see the top of ש? So, let's wait for the next episode of ש🎉😊
Who split the the first Aleph tav mem ? Hint - Aleph Tav, He divided the mem/waters. How many Atoms do you have ? The first Atom and the second Atom, we are the carbon atom
To the elder, ( Semper Fi ), from the shores of _________________________, you fill in the rest. I sought peace and found Him, but He sought me first, we met some where in the middle ! Have a wonderful Today !!!!
Shalom, we know because Father gave us a Clear Prophesy with A Sign. If Father allows we will post our testimony on video. These are the last days, however it is impossible for Father to fulfill His Word without regathering and returning all the tribes of Israel so that they may enter Jerusalem through their own gate. If you check our timeline chart you will see that the time of Judahs punishment is almost over. What a wonderful time that will be for all Fathers children. Shalom unto Jerusalem
Shalom, sorry Joseph I did not know your message was here, yes! Father’s testimony is all about how Father has lead us, kept us and blessed all Fathers children. Father is brining all the tribes back, there are gates prepared for each tribe to enter The city of GOD. Shalom unto Jerusalem
I do not think ET means ‘THE’ …it is the alpha and omega and points to something else ……some say this may be a hidden sign for Yeshua…which I the WORD and through which the world was created. ET (ALPHA OMEGA) is symbol that points to something in the text.
I have read that it indicates that the word which follows it receives the action of the verb which precedes it, so it is a grammatical marking. Seems unnecessary to me, but 🤷♀️. You could be right.
As far as I can tell it points to a direct object that will follow it. As for Yeshua being the Aleph Tav. He said He is, so you can surmise the meaning of the text by including Him in the meaning. As such there are things that come to light. For instance the aleph tav is before the heavens and the earth is written in the text and so we know Yeshua existed before the heavens and the earth. There is an aleph tav between the words for the heavens and the earth and so we know Yeshua will also be inside of space and time while He is also the One who was before space and time. There is a vav by the aleph tav between the heavens and earth. Six is the number of man and the vav aleph tav between the words of the heavens and the earth is the sixth word of the first verse. Here we see the aleph tav connected with the sixth letter, so we can surmise the Yeshua the man will be in space and time. We can also surmise out of this that Yeshua and man connect the heavens and the earth. Vav in Paleo Hebrew is depicted as a hook or nail. So here we see Yeshua will be hooked or nailed between the heavens and the earth. And so we know that Messiah will need to be lifted up for the healing of mankind. Here we see that Messiah was slain from the foundations of the earth for in the first verse it shows the aleph tav attached to the vav (nail). The wording says that that, "In the beginning the Gods created the heavens and the earth." Which Gods? After the word Elohim is the aleph tav, so which Gods created the heavens and the earth? The Gods known as the Aleph Tav. Yeshua expressed in the earthly realm, the heavenly realm and Yeshua expressed in the realm beyond space and time created the heavens and the earth. It seems as if many Gods created the heavens and the earth but we know God is one. The Gods are Aleph Tav. The Gods are Yeshua. This is a taste of how you can pull out Yeshua in the text and see where the writers of the Bible pulled Messiah out of the text. Indeed you could study the first verse of the Bible your whole life and still not exhaust all that is truly there and it would not be a wasted life. All praise, honor and glory to the Aleph Tav.
Shalom, Have you ever processed Elohim created the את first? John 1:1 In the beginning was the WORD(את), and the את was with Elohim, and the את was Elohim. Could it be the את is -The First and the Last - Book ends of an AlphaBet, with 20 more letters(אות) in between. HE Spoke יהי אורת - 3 Everything existed through His hands, and without Him, not even one thing existed of the things, which have existed. (The WORD (את)) YESHUA, THE WORD, THE FIRST THE LAST, BECAME FLESH Shalom, Paleo Lee
Rosh is always used to refer to new moon day, the FIRST, top, head day of each month. Ezekiel 46 says new moon day is to be HOLY, set apart, and that the DOOR to the holy house of worship is to be OPENED. Ezekiel 46 states this: New moon day = holy worship day, the door is to be open in the house of God. 6 work days = defined as unholy, not set apart. Ezekiel says the door to the holy house is to be SHUT on these 6 days. 7th day Sabbath= Ezekiel says it's a holy set apart worship day, where the door is to be open in the house of God for meeting. New moon = open and set apart from the 6 work days 6 work days are to be SEPERATE from new moon day and Sabbaths. 7th day Sabbath is to be SEPERATE from the 6 work days and the new moon day. Get it? It was SPOKEN. Obey it. And then you'll discover GODS CALENDAR and order of days.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Re'shiyth Elohiym bara eth shamayim eth erets. (please forgive my stumbling Hebrew). 'Bara' leans toward the process of choosing or selecting the right objects or materials complementary to the making of something. Nowhere in the creation narrative are the heavens and the earth 'created' out of 'nothing' the concept of 'Ex-nihilo is an invention of man. YHWH's Thought, His Concept, His Imagination came first...In HIS HEAD... And He gave it life (eg. Adam), as matter has no life of its own. So...In the Head/@The Head, The Forefront, The Highest Place, First Place, Chief Place Most Principal of all. Blessed 'I AM', Ultimate Intelligence, Undisputable Power, ONE who Is Always, either... a. chose the existent heavens and the earth (nebulous or solid) as the base materials for His Work, b. selected out of the existent universal matter and gasses of the universe materials for His Work, or c. fashioned existent matter into; the universe, the sky, the solid earth, and water. And because we are made in the Image of our 'Creator' we see that an idea is always conceived in our mind first, then outworked, and worked and formed into the physical manifestation and life of the idea. Please excuse this long winded comment. I really wanted/felt to share this with you all. I tried to find another way to do this but couldn't. I hope this blesses you. I thank our wonderful Father YHWH for your work. Looking forward to shin and tav. Blessings on the Paleo Road. Mick.
You are so generous to share the beauty and understanding you have received from Almighty. Thank you very much.
