Is there some reason you are using Greek to explain Hebrew to me? Personally, I understand Hebrew just fine and would prefer to stick with it when I study the Bible. I don't like Hellenism much. Trying to interpret the Bible in the light of Hellenism just sets my teeth on edge.

I read, write and speak Hebrew. (I've been living in Israel for over 21 years.) I conduct most of my business in Hebrew as well. Obviously my mother tongue is English or maybe it would be more correct to say American. The Brits I know claim I don't speak English. Oh, well...

Hello to the board! I live in Jerusalem, Israel where I work as an Israeli tour guide. I've been a believer for many years and I am also ordained with the Assemblies of God (In Southern Missouri.) I see that there are members here who are solidly anti-Israel. Obviously, I am not but I don't...
