That is interesting. I have used this Interlinear to help me understand the Hebrew Text: -Hi Jay,
I've been researching everything and this translation I'm working on comes from the original Hebrew scriptures and what I've translated is what it actually says.
Jason, give it up. Why would anyone trust your silly retranslation?Hi. I have been working on retranslating Genesis
Stop. You are obviously not qualified to translate the Holy Scriptures. You can't even get the first sentence right. And by the way, this concept of "breathing God's name" is not new. Rabbis and pastors have presented this before you were born. I am not validating it, just saying it's been out there.Hi Jay,
I've been researching everything and this translation I'm working on comes from the original Hebrew scriptures and what I've translated is what it actually says. Elohim is called God in most translations but it really translates to, He the many Gods, and in some context just, many Gods. If you research Elohim you will find this out. The one who is speaking at the beginning of genesis is YHWH, not God. YHWH created Elohim. And it says it in the first verse and who She is that is spoken of in my translation so far, is the Spirit, Mother of all. You see it is very complex but modern translations say what they want to say and not entirely what it actually says. Everybody asks the same question, Who created God? the answer for you is, YHWH or how they retranslated YHWH to YAHWEH because they knew not how to pronounce it. So I'll help you pronounce it. Breathe in, ( You just said YH ) now breathe out, (you just said WH). every time you breathe in and out you have to say YHWH. You see YH and WH are breathing sounds. Everybody speaks YHWH's name. If you don't believe me breathe in and think YH and breathe out while thinking WH. OR breathe loudly and listen closely. And tell me what you hear yourself saying.
To the OP: I'd love to know who you intend the audience to be. Are you trying to push people away from reading Genesis?Hi. I have been working on retranslating Genesis and I am still working on it but here is what I have? Feel free to ask questions or leave comments.
Genesis 1:1-5
1 In her beginning I created, Elohim, by them, I made him the heavens and for her the lands. 2 And Her lands was, Become, Formless, and Empty; and Darkness was on the faces of Abyss. Ruah and Elohim was brooding over the faces of the Waters. 3 And I said to Elohim, I shall become Light: and I became Light. 4 And I saw Elohim and He the Light, agree that She was good: and I divided Elohim between He the Light and He the Darkness. 5 And I Called Elohim, not the light, day, and not Darkness and I called not Night, (to be continued)
Her that is spoken of is The Spirit RUAH and when IAM saw Elohim and the light agree tht she (The Spirit) was good. You just don't understand Hebrew and what it really says. And btw before you bash me maybe you should do your own researerch casue if you dont like the translation I have already, just shows you have no research to back up your silly statment. its funny how you bashed me but had no argument for your reasoning to insult me.I think he was referring to to the OP, not your post.
The OP is IMO really choppy and hard to follow. It looks like in one part, that light has a personality, and the next part light is a "He". then "she'. Also why are ruach and Elohim brooding over the waters? And not were brooding, it says they was brooding.Sounds like poor English.
To the OP: I'd love to know who you intend the audience to be. Are you trying to push people away from reading Genesis?
As for the "he and she' are you calling the word"good" a she because it is a femininead "He the light",She was good."? In Latin lux or lucis is light, it doesn't mean to translate light as a he or she. It is grammatical gender, not a natural one
I have to ask, and I'm not trying to be a brat, but what is your background? Hey, I'm all for practicing translation,we do it weekly in class but I am wrong alot.
Also, you say YHVH created Elohim? Who is Elohim? And where in Genesis 1, does it say that? Created Elohim, by them? Who is them?
How did YHVH divide Elohim?
I posted the wrong thing. please give it another read i changed it to my actual work and not my play work. and then criticize me if you feel the need toStop.

Thousands of experts, Phds in their fields of theology, history, languages, hermeneutics, etc., have already produced some sixty English translations of the Bible that you can access online. The Biblegateway.com is one site. These scholars get together in groups to take on this extremely detailed and holy task that usually takes many years to complete. Spare yourself and the rest of us.
how sosounds like you have totally rewritten Genesis in such a way that it contradicts the rest of the scriptures where God reveals himself.
You remind me of the line from"12 Angry Men": "he don't even speak good English."You say I'm not qualified but you do know not my credentials. Obviously you are not educated enough to research all these hebrew words and their characters or you would find out my tranlsation is more accurate then all these different tranlstions that coppurt men decided what you be take out and what to change was to where they take names out of the bible changes scriptures. I bet you think Jesus is His name but it's not His name is Ihesus. before you bash someone do your own research and you can just have another glass of kool-aid.
There are also numerous misspellings and grammatical errors in this post, but I'll leave it to you to find them.your an idoit dude. you're so busy believing what man tells you it says instead of finding out for yourself. If you knew the history of the bible , you would find out that manys words have been changed and many woods taken out and many names compiled into one singular name which thereby makes your bible a liar.. Buddy before you seat on God's seat and judge me for putting back what man took away. You say i'm not qualified but you don't know me. if i was to guess what your qualilifed for is saying lies and sawing discord about my own translation that is more accurate then your bible. God bless and if you want to remain ignorant keep it to yourself.
wow im on a forum just busting out real quick what i say and you judge my grammar but nothing esle. I thought Jesus said not to judge. and i dont want to be Grammarly correct to save time. And believe what yall want stay ignonart. you all are closed minded brainwashed by the deception man has placed in the scriptures.You remind me of the line from"12 Angry Men": "he don't even speak good English."
a) I trust the scholars who have given us the wonderful English translations, not you.
b) "You say I'm not qualified but you do know not my credentials" is poor English.
c) "Obviously you are not educated enough to research all these hebrew [not capitalized] words and their characters or you would find out my tranlsation [misspelled] is more accurate then all these different tranlstions [misspelled] that coppurt [misspelled] men decided what you be take out [meaningless] and what to change was to where they take names out of the bible changes scriptures [poor grammar]". Six errors in one run-on sentence! And your next two sentences also contain errors.
If you can't even write English correctly I can only imagine how many errors there are in your "translation".
I didn't bash you. I have questions. and I asked you if you were aware of grammatical genders. I also was asking where it saysYHVH created Elohim? Do you have a background in linguistics or Hebrew?Her that is spoken of is The Spirit RUAH and when IAM saw Elohim and the light agree tht she (The Spirit) was good. You just don't understand Hebrew and what it really says. And btw before you bash me maybe you should do your own researerch casue if you dont like the translation I have already, just shows you have no research to back up your silly statment. its funny how you bashed me but had no argument for your reasoning to insult me.
How does making grammar mistakes on purpose check if this was a Christian forum? How is asking you speaking evil of you?I purposely made the grammar mistakes to see if this was a true Christian forum but the devil lurks here in the heart of your closed mind and insults. I found out what kind of people are on this Thread. and it's not Christians that follow christ or you would accept a truth instead of attacking me or even giving it a thought. I came to this forum believing there were educated men not in grammar, but in Hebrew and the scriptures. If I wasn't a believer yall would chase me away from God because of your evil hearts.
You can’t even write English correctly judging by your postYou say I'm not qualified but you do know not my credentials.
