Reading the Bible in Hebrew meetings in Phoenix Arizona
Our "Reading the Bible in Hebrew" class began in Phoenix, Arizona in 1995 and is still going strong. In a round table discussion the group is looking for those "nuggets" of ideas and revelations that are possible only through knowing what the original Hebrew says.
We include in our free Newsletter references to our studies and will be happy to give voice to some of our ideas that can enrich our readers.
Please email to us your own comments, ask questions, or share with this audience some of your best ideas regarding the Portion of the week. If you live or visit in Phoenix Arizona please feel free to join us in the "Reading the Bible in Hebrew" class.
Comment and ask questions on the week's Torah reading. Join us who meet every Monday night in Phoenix.
The Bible was Written in Hebrew
Hebrew is the path to a more intimate knowledge of the Bible's secrets and to a closer relationship with the divine word and intention. It is much more than simply another language. It is an ancient and fascinating system of concepts and ideas with a rich history of meaning that goes "beyond translation."
This seminar will introduce you to a hidden understanding of "Hebrew" and will help you unlock the deeper meaning of the Scriptures that for so many remain 'hidden in the Hebrew'.
For years, Uri Harel, an Israeli Hebrew teacher, was talking to everyone who was willing to listen about his idea of music in the Bible. According to an old Hebrew tradition about the creation of the world, God used the Torah as a blueprint for the work of creating the universe. The 22 Hebrew letters in pre-determined combinations were used to accomplish this task. Those letters therefore represent the physical forces used in the creation process.
Pain relief and music Medication is the best, first choice to treat pain following surgery, but music may be a good complement to pain-relief drugs, according to a new review of clinical studies.
Patients who listened to music after surgery reported less pain than other patients who were not exposed to music, the review found. Music also reduced the patients' need for morphine-like drugs.
Lowering a patient's need for narcotics following a surgical procedure cuts the risk for drug complications like nausea and vomiting.
Our Torah scroll is perhaps our most revered physical possession today. The honor and respect with which we handle our Torah in synagogue results from our knowledge that it contains the words of Hashem as dictated to Moshe over 3300 years ago. Meticulous care has been taken to insure the proper transmission of the Torah.
There are many factors which collectively contribute to the wholeness of the Torah, but perhaps the single most important factor is the orthography, or proper spelling of each word. In fact, the orthography of the Torah is considered so important that the scribe is instructed to "be careful with your task, for it is sacred work; if you add or subtract even a single letter, [it is as if] you have destroyed the entire world!" (Eruvin 13a).
