To the best of my recollection I was posing questions and not answering them.

James Christian


Quoting David Hamuel <davidhamuel AT sbcglobal.net>:




Hebrew as a holy language......
1) Abraham's first language was the same as the language spoken in
Egypt at the time
2) Their languages were so similar that they could get by without
having use an agreed second language
3) Abraham, the traveller, was multilingual and spoke Egyptian as a
second language (not difficult for him to learn because of its
similarities)........
......(and the rest of your posts/threads)


You're dealing with theology, faith, belief.

Where's the linguistic investigation? Where's the academic investigation? Where's the Hebrew? the language? the evidence?





Best,
