Was Abraham Father of the Jews or of Humanity?

Oh well, happy bone chewing. Great talking with u. My takeaway is that we are seeing Canaanites through biblical glasses to justify biblical politics that has no basis in the holy bible.

Thank u for drawing my attention to Ugaritic texts in this context. I made a brief survey. This is what I found.

Most interesting among these details are references to a Canaanite god named El or Elohim, which translates loosely as “the Lord.” The Ugaritic texts indicate that while other gods were worshiped, El reigned supreme over all the deitie…
The question would be this. Was Joshua justified in capturing the land of Canaanite believers.
I do not have the time to study this in detail at present. Pl do share if u have a summary if their beliefs. Thx.

The Hebrew letter H is extremely amazing

H Hebrew Letter...

The letter H in the name of Abraham is 5 or 1:4
1 is the little upper line that’s detach and 4 is the other area.

Heh (Hei) is the fifth letter of the Hebrew alphabet

ה

The yud (the detached left leg) represents G‑d. I think that’s the little upward line. so in a way would that be the inner ‘I’ we all carry?

The other line is the physical world, called the dalet

The yud (the detached left leg) represents G‑d, and thus spirituality

Ok that was enjoyable and fun. To learn the Hebrew letter H

If I might interject here. First, Canaanites refers to different ethnic groups that lived in the same region. The Phoenician alphabet and the Paleo-Hebrew alphabet were similar. The current Hebrew alphabet evolved from the Aramaic alphabet so it isn’t similar.

No.

Usually blood represents life.

“Down the rabbit hole” is a English language idiom. It refers to Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll and it means to get deep into a subject or end up someplace strange.

There was an interesting PBS show on written language last week that showed the evolution from pictographic writing to current written script.

Ah, here it is:

Thank you. It seems that Canaanite and biblical religions were similar at 1500 bce. That would dismiss the claim of the Jews to Canaan as being divinely ordained. I wonder how the jews have respond to this.

Except Abraham predates the modern Hebrew alphabet. So the Paleo-Hebrew letter that was added to his name was actually Ha (𐤄). From The Paleo-Hebrew Dictionary.

Similar doesn’t mean the same or equivalent or equally false.

How do you figure that? God promised the land to Abraham unless you want to dismiss most of the OT as being fake.


The video is not available.

Terry. Thx. But this does not provide any justification for killing the Canaanites and grabbing their land. Where does that leave the moral base of israel?

That promise was to the believers in One God and included the Canaanite believers in El. No promise to biological descendants. Further, can u explain how converts get right to israel not being biological descendants.

Bummer. Might check your local listings to see if they rerun it. PBS like everyone else seems to move its content to some form of subscription. However, when I clicked the link, it worked just now, so maybe it was a temporary internet problem if you want to try again.

Not what my Bible says.

seed: zera a sowing, seed, offspring

NASP Translation carnally* (1), child (1), children (3), descendant (3), descendants (105), descent (1), family (6), fertile (1), grain (3), intercourse* (2), line (1), nation (1), offspring (38), offspring’s offspring (1), origin (1), posterity (1), race (1), seed (48), seedtime (1), seminal (4), seminal* (1), son* (1), time (1), what you sow (1)

Certainly doesn’t look like it means believers.

There is a process, painful for some males, to convert to Judism. After which you are considered Jewish will all the benefits that entails, AFAIK.

I’m watching it, right now

so it works

it’s interesting how they use this tool and press into clay

It works, I’m able to watch

baal and he had a conselt (sp?) beloved of female balaam or., what name., Canaanite Goddess

Oh wow., your right., My H is to advance
H Hebrew Letter...

@Bill_II Your H (𐤄) is Abraham time?
What does H look like in India during that time I wonder?

(𐤄) is still fifth letter - you say arms stretch out, there’s a line ontop, maybe that’s the head,

The Paleo-Hebrew language or Original Ābarayam language is one spoken with an emphasis on the rauach (breath, wind, spirit)

In India that language was pre-Sanskrit was the H the fifth letter too?

@bharatjj is there any H that we can see from Abraham time in India

Does meena people have the letter H?

I learn that one can take a tool and press on clay

@Bill_II this is interesting about H

wait look Masoretic Hebrew
Askenazi Hebrew
Israeli Hebrew
Modern Hebrew
that’s for ה

Here’s Hindu modern H एच

Nope

I suspect it is an international copyright issue.
