IF the content is good I’ll listen for hours! I hate short videos BUT I also hate long videos that repeat the same stuff over and over again, and Tabor is fresh!
In this crazy world, we love & need sane, factual & intellectual discussions. Deep understanding & knowledge of the Bible is such a blessing. Thank you both so very much! Blessings in Absolute Abundance! ✨💖✨
I absolutely love, long, in-depth videos. I enjoy listening to them as I do my daily work and chores around the house. Plus, the longer and more in depth of more I have to chew on. Keep it up!
Finally 🙌🏻 Someone who has taken us to a place to where, “Evidence that demands a verdict” in our thinking. Dr. Tabor~takes us to the “truth of the matter” with the “knowledgeable facts” meaning he has looked, studied and without bias gone to the earliest transcripts. I love that he mentioned in his previous videos~that “he wanted to go, not to the traditional places in Isreal” but, to the actual places. That, basically it was possible! And, now in this video with the reading of the Hebrew Bible in English but, it being written and expressed in true Hebrew! I’m in! You have my complete attention…The freedom that this provides in the Christian walk is beyond belief. This puts a realism as to who, what and where. Archaeologically, historically and evidential. Not, mystically and spiritualism as (I believe) is taught in our Western culture….pure and unadulterated!!! Thank you~Dr. Tabor for your years of study, teaching, travel and research…
Pure Joy! 🌹 The beginning of the book of Genesis is my favorite part of scriptures. His explanation of the initial setting corresponds to the possibility of a 'gap' preceding the entire re-ordering of the earth. 😊
I would snap up a translation the retains 'Yahweh' and 'Elohim' instead of translating those as 'God' - a more literally faithful translation is right up my alley
I don't get Mythvision. He constantly makes obviously incorrect statements on his channel. One of the last videos I watched of his was when he talked about the strange biblical doctrine of demons ruling hell. At no time was that an actual biblical teaching. That's a medieval Christian belief but not a biblical one. I tried correcting him and his not so merry men followers and they were having more of that. It's too bad. Cheers
@21:30 God walks in the garden anthropomorphizes the leading Deity. I can see how this minute textural change can change the entire picture. God flowing, traveling or moving through the garden seems more consonant with the Divine properties and consistent with later Divine encounters as reported through Scriptures.
James, I'm enjoying hearing you again, as you share your learned wisdom with the world! It's been five years since Luis & I traveled with you in Israel... a life changing experience. Hoping to return on a mission with FIDF. Please keep lecturing via RUclips. Yours is a voice that must be heard. Ja, mein Grossmutter hat gesagt: "Es, Es!" Can't wait to read your Genesis translation: At the first of Elohim creating the skies and the land..." G-d bless you & SHALOM🕊️ Linda Katarina
This is an exciting translation! Dr. Tabor, there is a man by the name of Jeff Benner who published "A Mechanical Translation of the Torah" who I think sought to accomplish what you have done here as well.
I've always heard Genesis 1 as a song sung to a group by firelight. The audience would even chime in at specific places. e.g. Singer 'And God said, "Let there be light,”' audience: 'and there was light.'
I got it a while back along with some of his other books, including and especially Paul's Ascent which is worldview changing and "suspicion-confirming", at least for me. His Genesis is SO different, in a good and interesting way, from all that we have in the NRSV, which I've used for years, and I'm sure is different from all the others. It's got 900+ footnotes. It's a scholarly work as are the rest of his books.
Hi, I am so glad you did this interview. Thank you. Dave, might I suggest that you do NOT interrupt him or even say "yeah" or "right" after every three words he says. The reason why is when you speak over him then not only do we not hear you, we also do not hear him. This means that there is a lot of wasted time where we hear two voices for probably one quarter or one third of the interview and all that time is LOST and wasted space. Additionally, it distracts from the flow and the listener has to restart applying their listening skills which takes even MORE time and distracts from the depth required to understand this deep information. PLEASE consider your listeners rather than servicing your personal needs and your channel will be more attractive. Thank you. 🙏🙏🙏
The prospect of Dr Tabors translation method being a system sounds so feasible. I can even imagine software being developed to make the process run more quickly and leading to access to more accurate readings of the bibles! So exciting
This was excellent 👌!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I had to listen to it twice and just been reading the Bible as history - Keller and think that we have so much correlation in the Sumerian that I want to research more, I’ll definitely get your book! Have you seen Archaix’s channel on the dark scriptures playlist he is pointing out some interesting correlation between the authors mentioning each other and the lack of mentioning some that seem to have been edited in. Thanks once again!!
Enjoying this interview, & find it very interesting!!!🙋 Staying Open minded ... Also, Using Caution!!! & Praying about checking out "James Tabor's" work! & Hope Everyone has a Blessed 😇 Saturday Night 🙋
you are SO right about how the lord walked into the garden. it was during the "breezy" part of the day. the wind flows with the breeze. moses is building a foundation for the lord that he saw in horeb. he comes on the wind
just a reminder; the Masoretic Hebrew was composed between 6-th and 10-th century AD,a very long,long time after the originals vere written without vowels,
I have been using the TEB in an Episcopal Bible study group in parallel with the NRSV since April 2022-also using Friedman for sources. The group seems to be really enjoying the experience. Dr. Tabor, I hope you release Exodus by the time we complete Genesis sometime this year. Otherwise, it will be a big letdown. 😐
The book of genesis is a book about beginnings. I think all 5 books of Moses are combined under the title. And it's is highly significant that the first word is not only the subject and title, it is also the word Jacob used to describe his first begotten son. The subject of the Bible is not Reuben, but some say the entire book is about God's only begotten son. I believe it is also about a multi-portioned (hebrew) faith and the beginnings in each part if the journey.
There's also the concept of humans being given the understanding to name all things. Maybe the god of the Hebrew Bible is telling Moses: 'You don't have enough understanding to name me.'
I have long wanted to see a translation that said 'ELOHIM' and 'YHWH' in stead of "God" and other things. This looks like it will be very satisfying. And just seems so much more interesting than what Jordan Blather Peterson claims.
Appears your showing more of what the relationship may have been like between Adam and the LORD. Kinda helps explain why G-d actually had put so much enmity between them, Adam and Eve when they walked out of his Garden. I can only imagine how much loss as well as resentment may have formed between them. I don’t know, but it does look like we are again walking there same paths. It is amazing. Quick question, are you going to sell your book in Audible? It would be cool to hear how you actually feel when you read your interpretation of this book.
Love your videos! Wonderful scholarship providing an historical context to the faith. I,ve always been suspicious of translations since languages have historical and cultural nuances . I do have one minor comment on this video. Gravity is not a force, it is a field. For more info see the RUclips by Sabine Hossenfelder (love her videos,too) entitled “is Gravity a Force? Hope your followers see the video to increase their physics knowledge.
Gratitude for clearing up the age old misconception around the idea of woman being created to be a mans " help meet " . This is widely misunderstood and results in women's role being reduced to a male servant. This was a massive stumbling block for me .Your translation of the Hebrew "cogig do " which actually means: the thing corresponding to him opposite" ".You further clarified that 'Meet ' in old English refered to a fitting .As described the help meet is better understood as a metaphor for ( procreation)lock and key or thrust and receptacle. In otherwords man and woman are created equal and that together reflect the different natures of the creator .
The A. Conan Doyle standard is that the explanation has to account for *all* of the evidence. The only explanation that I'm aware of that meets that standard is David N. Talbott's.
*Variety of vocabulary* Most translations also have the opposite problem - change every different word for a Hebrew deity into “God” except where it says Yahweh as a separate word, as they get into @37:00
I just downloaded the book and look forward to studying it. I find your treatment of Gen. 1 & 2 very helpful. Dr. John Walton has a similar conclusion in his lecture "Reading Genesis with Ancient Eyes" ruclips.net/video/ci-6ekUmQFE/видео.html
Dr. Tabor: There is a lot of confusion on where The Bible stands, whether it is the Hebrew Bible, or the New testament on suicide. I would really appreciate you doing a presentation on this taboo topic.
Regarding “flowing” vs “walking” in the Adam and Eve example, could the original mean God is “flowing” like an ethereal spirit rather than “walking” as a human-like person?
The lives of Sarah? Could this be about the generations of Sarah? Generations can refer to our beginnings in each portion of faith. Sarah's name was changed as was Abraham's.
Psalm 82 is a brilliant pun, almost untranslatable. The psalmist Asaph plays on the ambiguity of the word _elohim_ so you never on first reading know whether he means God, or gods, or judges, until you’ve read past it to the end of the phrase.
Saint David’s Anglican church 1858 for Simpson northwest territories, Canada, like all the great churches this one is the oldest in the area. Every new church has disciples 12
Isn't "in the beginning" the title and subject of the whole of the Penteteuch? Maybe I said this before? The algorithm brought me back here this morning. I feel like this is the Lord. Jacob will express HIS beginning with this same word. He might have lifted Reuben for others to see the new baby and announced, this is our "berasheet!" I would expect someone to translate ברושית as Πρωτον. THE Proton, rather than the beginning. I don't know Hebrew, but I have the ear to hear (or HAD, I guess It's still with me, although I haven't used it for a long time.Although this is pronounced with a long "u" like Ruth, I see "rose." This is the FACE of God. I'm sure rose means face in some laguage. Rose is the beginning of the day, because rose is the color of the sky. Rose is also the end of the day. The first is the same as the last. The Bible is a book about the beginning of all things, the person and his creation. And I want to bring up the Proton Psalm because of how it begins. Depending on where you pause in the word "lamasa" it can mean 'Why," or it can question the meaning or use of a word. Is it "ινατι" or is this "ίνα τι?" Have you ever questioned this? Does David foresee the crucifixion and the question of whether "my God" set his son down and walked on him as an infant* UNDER his feet. Or was he set ASIDE momentarily to provide salvation for us. Lamasa: παραλείπει. (Ίνα τι) καταλείπεν or should it have been παραλειπεν. Was Father God the ultimate good Samaritan in fulfilling the royal command to love your neighbor (your neighbor's children) as your own--to set aside the physical life if his son for the greater need which was the eternal life of the neighbor's son.. Ινστι? Or Ίνα τι? (* I've wondered about the day when the enemy went into the temple to loot it. Mothers came from the places where they were shut in with nursing babies. They set their babies aside for the sanctity of the Holy of holies and the most holy place. I wondered about how this was recorded. Maybe you've wondered, too?) I want to watch the crucifixion scene in movies.. I think I would have been at the cross. But I can't bring myself to watch plays or movies of the crucifixion. Not ever.. it isn't entertainment.. After the tragedy and the trauma, their is the beautiful realization. Our Father set aside his son for the need of the neighbor's son. There is no greater love. People have debated whether Jesus was God or man. If they need to ask that question, I think they need to start again. I repeat the obvious, but God has 4 manifestations we normally think of: Son, Father, Holy Spirit AND the rare presence of the Most High God who is the unity of the 3. But there is also מאת when the father is with the son as God with us. The Father and the Holy Spirit were both present at the conception of the Son. The Holy Spirit came upon her and a child was conceived. He is made of biological material and is as much "man" as any other member of mankind. He is also God. I don't need to untangle the trinity; I just know. Jesus was present with me one day as the voice behind me, assuring me with an assurance I didn't even know I would shortly need. That is a man's voice (understatement) and your eardrum vibrates with the sound. God/Jesus speaks with whatever language and accent we use. He sounds like the 33 year old man znd I'd say his voice is a strong baritone. I've heard the voice of many waters which is incredibly beautiful. I think it was the 7 spirits. And, of course, the still small voice, the breath of God Almighty. I think all the sons of God hear the still small voice, but probably more often than me. You don't tell people because they wouldn't believe you anyway. The visions had to be told. If it were the answer someone wanted, they wouldn't have needed the help. The two times the spirit entered my house, it was very frightening. I'm don't mean to say I was afraid of God. I don't know if I could ever get used to the presence of God.
So when Jesus said that we must become like children to enter the kingdom of heaven was he referring to our state of consciousness before we ate the forbidden fruit
I'd agree with you that people do all the good and evil things, but they claim the morality and lessonsfrom the faith are the reasons that they choose to do those actions. As such, my argument is that the morality taught by the sect that they follow leads to the actions and thus that faith holds some responsibility for the actions that occurred.
In the beginning was Tao, The Tao became two, yin/Yang, the two became three, taiji, and the three became the ten thousand things. Simple enough ☯️☯️☯️
We can't talk about the role of Holy Spirit in the God who creates mankind in his image. The woman is Solomon's love song. Wisdom, I suppose, usually portrayed as the woman. She has skin that equates with the covering of the tabernacle. It darkens in the sunlight, I think. But we dare not admit that any likeness of God as female. David had a secret garden where he meditated and some secret passage into the temple? One question I can't answer. Why did Jesus wait until Jairus' daughter was fully 12 years old before going to her. I know it was her birthday. Did she need to be 12 before she could decided to believe? And if this is so, does everyone get a last offer to accept faith?
Read the book of Genesis with a heart toward the outcast (such as Hagar and Ishmael, Esau, Tamar-Perez-Zerah, Rachel-Jacob-Joseph-Benjamin, Manasseh-Ephraim) and you might have a different reading.
1:17:00 Originally mankind was not to grasp and consume knowledge of good and bad. Since the disobedience of HaAdam and Eva, their offspring would be born with the ability to eventually decide what is good and bad for themselves. The original design was obediance. After consuming the produce of the forbidden, each human decides what is good and bad for themselves. Everyone can go their own way. That is what is meant by being lost.
Interesting and educational video but, damn, an ad break every 2 to 5 minutes is excessive. I realize we endure ads to watch great content like this; but seriously, content peovider, is this really how you want your content to be viewed?
• b r o o d i h g. • I can feel that fluttering of the brooding eagle over its egg. The sound of purring. And these from the spirit of God brooding on the face of cold icy waters. As i hear it and feel it, i recall that Job reveals lightning from the crystals in snow clouds. • warm air and icy clouds • i can see the lightning fill the sky and hear the ear-piercing crash of a nearby lightning strike. Theres a language coded in the lightning. Fish and birds were created from light and water. The spirit of God brooding is what brought forth. First light...and then the borders of light. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see the code in light build everything. The same spirit brooded over Mary and transferred or constructed the DNA of the word as a human being. One sperm cell has the code necessary to create 30,000,000,000,000 cells all with their own instructions. (The creator has some reason for asking us not to pollute the DNA. We don't know everything.) Creating atomic particles would be easy--same pattern as everthing else.
Elyon is the first soul, the first consciousness creator who thought of a plan - a collection of thoughts - to define all subsequent creation, and inspired the two errant souls who led the first experiment in the creation of the multiverse - earlier versions of Lucifer and Lilith - to all the sins of the Big Bang duoverse that prepared the way for the Gaia experiment to be set up and executed in spite of many Great Resets far more frightening than the one the adversary's minions are trying to pull off these days. El-Shaddai is the force behind Karma, who judges all souls according to their merits and guides them to their "place just right" in a series of incarnations of experience and choices. You cannot come to a logical and rational understanding of spiritual science without sorting out the millennia of self-serving materialist power fantasy-feeding revisionism found in all scriptures - from the Sumerian Enuma Elish, Egyptian Book of the Dead, the Vedas, the Bible, and to modern day works of prophecy that are embedded in books and culture that only a few see as part of an evolving spiritual truth. Only by searching out what is consistent with God as the first of a collection of independentlyh evolving spiritual scientists, each working on their own perfect creations within the evolving laws of the game of souls, can you have any deep understanding of why you as an individual human-incarnated soul are here, why humanity is here, and how it all fits into a 12 step program of creation of which we are only nearing the completion of day 7 of the therapy - creating all the primary treatment centers that are the various spiritual universe heavens and hells folks are reporting from near death experiences and psychedelic trips and will be experiencing in their next trip to the afterlife. You don't have to trust what I say, find out for yourself when you experience the version of the apocalypse you have earned with your own words and deeds. Happy Karma!
In the beginning God created the (heaven) and the earth. Now look at Gen 2.ver1 Thus the (heavens) and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. ❓ Is it heaven or heavens Gen ch1 ver1 says heaven and GenChp1ver2 says heavens
I always prefer looooooon, in-depth videos. Thanks for all that you do Dr James Tabor
Those of us that want to learn from proven sources will listen far longer than the typical 8-12 RUclips minutes 👍🏽
I’ll sit for 5 hours listening to you…. Extremely Informative!!! Love it!!!!
The longer the better. I enjoy sitting back and immersing in a subject. Thank you
IF the content is good I’ll listen for hours! I hate short videos BUT I also hate long videos that repeat the same stuff over and over again, and Tabor is fresh!
Honestly Dr Tabor, it’s such a privilege, to hear your teachings. Very Much appreciated.
I am willing to go far longer than 8 minutes, so please keep doing what you’re doing professor.
and even those of us that won't go more than 8 minutes we eventually git 'er done!
agreed

I pulled down your translation from Amazon and I keep pausing your video and reading it back and forth!
I appreciate all knowledgeable perspectives of the Bible and it’s characters. Thank you for your perspective!
Yes i do in fact enjoy the long in depth videos. Its hard to find such unbiased and trusted knowledge on these topics
I purchased this and read it. It is an enlightening translation. I liked it.
Yes, indeed, I love in depth talks/ debates/ conversations
I completely misread David LeBlanc until I watched this interview. An excellent dialogue. Thank you.
Do what you like...stop following trends, and Do What Your Instincts Tell You
I have enjoyed the information that you share. Regardless if it's 8 minutes or 3 hours. The information that you share is quality.
I definitely want to read your Genesis translation. Genesis is very dear to me and I’m excited about encountering your translation decisions.
I would snap up a translation the retains 'Yahweh' and 'Elohim' instead of translating those as 'God' - a more literally faithful translation is right up my alley
I am one of those who loves long, detailed videos. ✌️❤️😊
Your live w/ MythVision was incredible. I can’t believe we get to ask you questions and get the answers in real time. Technology!
Amen! It was awesome. I had to buy access to the Mark course straight after!

you are SO right about how the lord walked into the garden. it was during the "breezy" part of the day. the wind flows with the breeze. moses is building a foundation for the lord that he saw in horeb. he comes on the wind
Having the proper approach is 9/10 of the battle strategy for success. Mr Tabor figured this out, somehow..
My normal limit is about 30 minutes....but Dr. Tabor....I make the exception for you.
The Image of God is Imprinted on our Souls.🌳
I am learning from you.
I'm Indonesian and i'm doing the same "raw translations" of Brsht/ Genesis into national language, Indonesian.
When God told Adam "a man shall leave his father and mother", wouldn't his only reply be "uh, what is a father and a mother"? Just saying...
just a reminder; the Masoretic Hebrew was composed between 6-th and 10-th century AD,a very long,long time after the originals vere written without vowels,
I have been using the TEB in an Episcopal Bible study group in parallel with the NRSV since April 2022-also using Friedman for sources. The group seems to be really enjoying the experience. Dr. Tabor, I hope you release Exodus by the time we complete Genesis sometime this year. Otherwise, it will be a big letdown. 😐
Does the translation break it down according to source analysis. I have Propp's 2 volume exodus series, I would like something to compliment those.
No. Tabor avoids talking about the Documentary Hypothesis and the various sources. You’ll need a companion book to get that info. I use Friedman.
The book of genesis is a book about beginnings. I think all 5 books of Moses are combined under the title. And it's is highly significant that the first word is not only the subject and title, it is also the word Jacob used to describe his first begotten son. The subject of the Bible is not Reuben, but some say the entire book is about God's only begotten son. I believe it is also about a multi-portioned (hebrew) faith and the beginnings in each part if the journey.
A video from Dr Tabor has to be long because they are so interesting.
There's also the concept of humans being given the understanding to name all things. Maybe the god of the Hebrew Bible is telling Moses: 'You don't have enough understanding to name me.'
I have long wanted to see a translation that said 'ELOHIM' and 'YHWH' in stead of "God" and other things. This looks like it will be very satisfying. And just seems so much more interesting than what Jordan Blather Peterson claims.

I love your long lectures/interviews. I did not like that you broke up one ijho three
The longer the better
Regarding “flowing” vs “walking” in the Adam and Eve example, could the original mean God is “flowing” like an ethereal spirit rather than “walking” as a human-like person?
So the opening of Genesis is a story about terraforming. Or maybe it is allegory and what’s being ordered out of chaos is a system of belief?
The lives of Sarah? Could this be about the generations of Sarah? Generations can refer to our beginnings in each portion of faith. Sarah's name was changed as was Abraham's.
Psalm 82 is a brilliant pun, almost untranslatable. The psalmist Asaph plays on the ambiguity of the word _elohim_ so you never on first reading know whether he means God, or gods, or judges, until you’ve read past it to the end of the phrase.
Saint David’s Anglican church 1858 for Simpson northwest territories, Canada, like all the great churches this one is the oldest in the area. Every new church has disciples 12
Isn't "in the beginning" the title and subject of the whole of the Penteteuch? Maybe I said this before? The algorithm brought me back here this morning. I feel like this is the Lord. Jacob will express HIS beginning with this same word. He might have lifted Reuben for others to see the new baby and announced, this is our "berasheet!" I would expect someone to translate ברושית as Πρωτον. THE Proton, rather than the beginning. I don't know Hebrew, but I have the ear to hear (or HAD, I guess It's still with me, although I haven't used it for a long time.Although this is pronounced with a long "u" like Ruth, I see "rose." This is the FACE of God. I'm sure rose means face in some laguage. Rose is the beginning of the day, because rose is the color of the sky. Rose is also the end of the day. The first is the same as the last. The Bible is a book about the beginning of all things, the person and his creation. And I want to bring up the Proton Psalm because of how it begins. Depending on where you pause in the word "lamasa" it can mean 'Why," or it can question the meaning or use of a word. Is it "ινατι" or is this "ίνα τι?" Have you ever questioned this? Does David foresee the crucifixion and the question of whether "my God" set his son down and walked on him as an infant* UNDER his feet. Or was he set ASIDE momentarily to provide salvation for us. Lamasa: παραλείπει. (Ίνα τι) καταλείπεν or should it have been παραλειπεν. Was Father God the ultimate good Samaritan in fulfilling the royal command to love your neighbor (your neighbor's children) as your own--to set aside the physical life if his son for the greater need which was the eternal life of the neighbor's son.. Ινστι? Or Ίνα τι? (* I've wondered about the day when the enemy went into the temple to loot it. Mothers came from the places where they were shut in with nursing babies. They set their babies aside for the sanctity of the Holy of holies and the most holy place. I wondered about how this was recorded. Maybe you've wondered, too?)
I want to watch the crucifixion scene in movies.. I think I would have been at the cross. But I can't bring myself to watch plays or movies of the crucifixion. Not ever.. it isn't entertainment.. After the tragedy and the trauma, their is the beautiful realization. Our Father set aside his son for the need of the neighbor's son. There is no greater love. People have debated whether Jesus was God or man. If they need to ask that question, I think they need to start again. I repeat the obvious, but God has 4 manifestations we normally think of: Son, Father, Holy Spirit AND the rare presence of the Most High God who is the unity of the 3. But there is also מאת when the father is with the son as God with us. The Father and the Holy Spirit were both present at the conception of the Son. The Holy Spirit came upon her and a child was conceived. He is made of biological material and is as much "man" as any other member of mankind. He is also God. I don't need to untangle the trinity; I just know. Jesus was present with me one day as the voice behind me, assuring me with an assurance I didn't even know I would shortly need. That is a man's voice (understatement) and your eardrum vibrates with the sound. God/Jesus speaks with whatever language and accent we use. He sounds like the 33 year old man znd I'd say his voice is a strong baritone. I've heard the voice of many waters which is incredibly beautiful. I think it was the 7 spirits. And, of course, the still small voice, the breath of God Almighty. I think all the sons of God hear the still small voice, but probably more often than me. You don't tell people because they wouldn't believe you anyway. The visions had to be told. If it were the answer someone wanted, they wouldn't have needed the help. The two times the spirit entered my house, it was very frightening. I'm don't mean to say I was afraid of God. I don't know if I could ever get used to the presence of God.
The coding begins in the language of light
So when Jesus said that we must become like children to enter the kingdom of heaven was he referring to our state of consciousness before we ate the forbidden fruit
Zen buddhists calls it 'beginners mind'.
I like "earthling" for "אדם"

I'd agree with you that people do all the good and evil things, but they claim the morality and lessonsfrom the faith are the reasons that they choose to do those actions. As such, my argument is that the morality taught by the sect that they follow leads to the actions and thus that faith holds some responsibility for the actions that occurred.
wow. take a brearh James.
I mean Phil Collins, wow what a drummer.
Bring back Peter Gabriel.
I never thought he was more than a tad above average but he was definitely that.

In the beginning was Tao, The Tao became two, yin/Yang, the two became three, taiji, and the three became the ten thousand things. Simple enough ☯️☯️☯️
We can't talk about the role of Holy Spirit in the God who creates mankind in his image. The woman is Solomon's love song. Wisdom, I suppose, usually portrayed as the woman. She has skin that equates with the covering of the tabernacle. It darkens in the sunlight, I think. But we dare not admit that any likeness of God as female. David had a secret garden where he meditated and some secret passage into the temple?
One question I can't answer. Why did Jesus wait until Jairus' daughter was fully 12 years old before going to her. I know it was her birthday. Did she need to be 12 before she could decided to believe? And if this is so, does everyone get a last offer to accept faith?
Is this Tabor dude also a mystic/esoteric student? Or another secular academic?
not day 1 but 1 day for all things. were 1 not even the angels were created....?
Dr. Tabor do you think that Yeshua was a/the Messiah? To be clear I'm jewish so you know whether he is a 'god' isn't what I'm asking
Read the book of Genesis with a heart toward the outcast (such as Hagar and Ishmael, Esau, Tamar-Perez-Zerah, Rachel-Jacob-Joseph-Benjamin, Manasseh-Ephraim) and you might have a different reading.
1:17:00 Originally mankind was not to grasp and consume knowledge of good and bad. Since the disobedience of HaAdam and Eva, their offspring would be born with the ability to eventually decide what is good and bad for themselves. The original design was obediance. After consuming the produce of the forbidden, each human decides what is good and bad for themselves. Everyone can go their own way. That is what is meant by being lost.
Interesting and educational video but, damn, an ad break every 2 to 5 minutes is excessive. I realize we endure ads to watch great content like this; but seriously, content peovider, is this really how you want your content to be viewed?
• b r o o d i h g. • I can feel that fluttering of the brooding eagle over its egg. The sound of purring. And these from the spirit of God brooding on the face of cold icy waters. As i hear it and feel it, i recall that Job reveals lightning from the crystals in snow clouds. • warm air and icy clouds • i can see the lightning fill the sky and hear the ear-piercing crash of a nearby lightning strike. Theres a language coded in the lightning. Fish and birds were created from light and water. The spirit of God brooding is what brought forth. First light...and then the borders of light. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see the code in light build everything. The same spirit brooded over Mary and transferred or constructed the DNA of the word as a human being. One sperm cell has the code necessary to create 30,000,000,000,000 cells all with their own instructions. (The creator has some reason for asking us not to pollute the DNA. We don't know everything.) Creating atomic particles would be easy--same pattern as everthing else.

From king James Bible
Elyon is the first soul, the first consciousness creator who thought of a plan - a collection of thoughts - to define all subsequent creation, and inspired the two errant souls who led the first experiment in the creation of the multiverse - earlier versions of Lucifer and Lilith - to all the sins of the Big Bang duoverse that prepared the way for the Gaia experiment to be set up and executed in spite of many Great Resets far more frightening than the one the adversary's minions are trying to pull off these days. El-Shaddai is the force behind Karma, who judges all souls according to their merits and guides them to their "place just right" in a series of incarnations of experience and choices.
You cannot come to a logical and rational understanding of spiritual science without sorting out the millennia of self-serving materialist power fantasy-feeding revisionism found in all scriptures - from the Sumerian Enuma Elish, Egyptian Book of the Dead, the Vedas, the Bible, and to modern day works of prophecy that are embedded in books and culture that only a few see as part of an evolving spiritual truth. Only by searching out what is consistent with God as the first of a collection of independentlyh evolving spiritual scientists, each working on their own perfect creations within the evolving laws of the game of souls, can you have any deep understanding of why you as an individual human-incarnated soul are here, why humanity is here, and how it all fits into a 12 step program of creation of which we are only nearing the completion of day 7 of the therapy - creating all the primary treatment centers that are the various spiritual universe heavens and hells folks are reporting from near death experiences and psychedelic trips and will be experiencing in their next trip to the afterlife.
You don't have to trust what I say, find out for yourself when you experience the version of the apocalypse you have earned with your own words and deeds. Happy Karma!
In the beginning God created the (heaven) and the earth. Now look at Gen 2.ver1 Thus the (heavens) and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. ❓ Is it heaven or heavens Gen ch1 ver1 says heaven and GenChp1ver2 says heavens
