Download or read book Learn to Write the Hebrew Script written by Jonathan Lotan and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn to Write the Hebrew Script presents a new and innovative approach to learning the Hebrew script. Drawing on the common ancestry of European and Hebrew alphabets and the natural inclinations of the writing hand, Orr-Stav shows how the Hebrew script may be understood and acquired almost intuitively through a three-step transformation of ordinary Roman-script cursive. Thoroughly researched but written with a light touch and the empathy of someone who’s been there, Learn to Write the Hebrew Script uncovers several surprises and dispels much of the mystique of what is often an intimidating subject, making the script of the Old Testament much more accessible to millions of non-Hebrew speakers worldwide. "What sets this book apart is its novel approach to the subject, which offers the Western reader a far more accessible and less intimidating approach to the subject."—J.P. Kang, Princeton Theological Seminary "A completely novel approach to this knotty problem. For anyone who wants or needs to learn Hebrew, this book is a must, a valuable adjunct to any teaching aid."—Josephine Bacon, American Translators Association Chronicle "This quirky, unexpected, and utterly charming book offers a three-step method for learning to write Hebrew script, and the author has a gift for presenting the technical and abstract clearly and disarmingly."—The Jerusalem Report

Download or read book The World s Oldest Alphabet written by Douglas Petrovich and published by Hendrickson Academic. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For about 150 years, scholars have attempted to identify the language of the world's first alphabetic script, and to translate some of the inscriptions that use it. Until now, their attempts have accomplished little more than identifying most of the pictographic letters and translating a few of the Semitic words. With the publication of The World's Oldest Alphabet, a new day has dawned. All of the disputed letters have been resolved, while the language has been identified conclusively as Hebrew, allowing for the translation of 16 inscriptions that date from 1842 to 1446 BC. It is the author's reading that these inscriptions expressly name three biblical figures (Asenath, Ahisamach, and Moses) and greatly illuminate the earliest Israelite history in a way that no other book has achieved, apart from the Bible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlocking the Ancient Hebrew Alphabet Code shows how to interpret many basic Hebrew words using the ancient pictographical meanings of the individual Hebrew letters. Each letter tells a story. Each combination of letters within a Hebrew word forms a picture-story unto itself.Biblical Hebrew was meant to be a living, pictographical language based on combinations of word pictures, each of which conveyed specific meanings. Once this system of word pictures is understood, Hebrew words come alive with nuances of meaning that no other language can match. A picture may equal a thousand words, but Hebrew words are beautifully alive with full-color picture meanings!
Download or read book Creation of the Hebrew Alphabet written by Douglas B. Vogt and published by Diehold Foundation. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original design of the Hebrew alphabet was created by a very highly advanced previous civilization that once lived on the Earth a very long time ago. It also means that the late Bronze Age Hebrews could not possibly devise these twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet as Moses already told us. The 22 letters are formed from 22 views around a waveform superimposed on a toroid shape. The waveform is a modified square wave modified by the natural log. There is a further conversion done after you obtained all the correct vectors. The end result is the ¿letters¿ represent a computer programming language used in a Quantum Computer (light based computer) That is why the Library of Congress correctly indexed the book under Quantum computing. Once you realize what the letters really are, the surface story completely disappears. The only part of the Torah that has significance is the Garden of Eden story because that is where Moses told us who the people who put this technology into the family cave that Abraham purchased for 400 shekels.
