Wow! Still very exciting the second time watching. Also... I guess the word "אֱלֹהִים" in a general sense is even broader than I thought. Somehow I thought to check what word is used for Samuel's ghost/spirit(?) in 1 Samuel 28:13, and it's "אֱלֹהִים" there, too...
Beth, you and your husband do us a wonderful service in teaching us Hebrew. I love the lessons! Where can I get Hebrew scriptures like the one you use in your videos? Is a paperback edition available?
Thank you! On our Resources page you can find a list of the different Bibles that appear in our videos (Print>Bibles that appear in our videos): freehebrew.online/resources/
Okayy.....so "of" means all creatures that can fly while " tsipor" refers specifically to birds... Or maybe both refer to words .... Anyways , great job telling us the classifications😁👍👍
The Foul Fowl List ends with ואת הדוכיפת ואת העטלף. In modern classification, a bat is a mammal, but in Biblical Hebrew, העטלף עוף. How come? (Not that it matters, as bats aren't ungulates or ruminants.)
Yeah, their categories are so different from ours! So עוף is basically anything that flies, and that's why bats are included. Even flying insects are included, as in Lev. 11:20 and Deut. 14:19.

How do you translate "hayat hasadeh"? "the living of the fields / the wild", literally? And "hayah ra'a"? "the wild (and dangerous) beasts"? thank you!
Adam sometimes refers to a single individual man, but it more often refers to "mankind/humankind." Anashim is just a normal word for "people," the plural of "ish."
Aos 4:05, o que significa exatamente "ra'á" junto com "hayá"? São "os animais maus" ou "os animais ferozes/selvagens"? É um termo geral para animais perigosos, feras?
Sim, é um termo para animais perigosos e ferozes! É o que disse Jacó quando viu a túnica de José: "Achamos esta túnica; vê se é a túnica de teu filho, ou não. Ele a reconheceu e exclamou: A túnica de meu filho! uma _besta-fera_ (Haya ra'a) o devorou; certamente José foi despedaçado." Gen. 37:32-33
No name for Noah's wife in the Bible. :-( The earliest traditional name is in the book of Jubilees (2nd-3rd century BC/BCE; Jub. 4.33) אמזרע (Literally "mother of seed/offspring") ... like how Noah's mother is named בתאנש ("daughter of man"). The name אמזרע also shows up in the Genesis Aprocryphon from Qumran (1QapGen 4.7 from the Dead Sea Scrolls).
Could be, I think at least in early English translations they just transliterated the word since they weren't sure what wood it was. So many English speakers who grew up hearing Bible songs for kids will remember songs about Noah building his ark out of "gopher wood," and then of course we all picture little rodents, gophers, which actually have nothing to do with anything 😆
You did a really nice job. It would seem you took a stand on the "sons of God" being angels in the Flood narrative, which I realize has long been part of Jewish tradition. It does fill my head with a myriad of questions [How can one procreate without being basar? Do fallen angels really have the power to become flesh as Christ did? Why does it seem part of the issue is that they marry any they chose, as if maybe some would be ok and others not? Why do the NT passages that supposedly support this view seem so clear to me in their overall message, but so unclear in supporting this (e.g., sexual deviancy is rebellion, but not all rebellion involves sexual deviancy)? If fallen angels were called "sons of God," why is the term used so much in the NT as a positive term that applies to believers? - I guess I find having the same term applying to me and fallen angels a bit revolting, etc., etc, etc.]. As a biologist I do much better with the other explanation that the godly line was marrying outside the faith, and this was contributing to the problem (a recurring theme in Scripture, OT and NT, and providing a biological reason for Nephilim, if they were in fact giants). Anyhow, I still really appreciate the video and think it is very valuable. I especially like how you clarified the biblical word remes with pictures. I expect to be watching it again some day, perhaps even when I study Hebrew with my grandkids. May God continue to bless and guide you! :-)
Hi Jean, it wasn't really our intention to take a stand on the nephilim issue at all, but rather teach different general categories that you see in other areas of the Bible like Job 1. We recommend people check out Dr Peter Gentry's excellent video on the issue if they have questions. He is one of our dear friends and mentors :) th-cam.com/video/qKtHwc3mMY8/w-d-xo.html
BTW, if you know of a good source that explains why the term must refer to angels in Job 1, please direct me to it. I understand that is the standard explanation that I have always seen commentators take, but what rules out the scene taking place on earth where God is inhabiting the praises of his people, and Satan shows up? As the believers are worshiping God, presumably on a High Holy Day, God can just glance over and say, "have you considered my servant Job?" While I find the standard explanation plausible, I still don't see what makes the alternative I provide here as implausible. The closest I have heard is based on the word "from" that is said to imply Satan is no longer on earth at the time of the conversation. Unfortunately, the Hebrew for that does not appear to have the same semantic range as the English word, so I don't see it as a strong argument.
You might try looking at Michael Heiser's book "The Unseen Realm." I don't agree with some of the things in his book, and neither does Gentry, but he does do a thorough job of explaining the category of spiritual beings in Hebrew. Also, you might check out John Walton's book on ancient near Eastern thought and the old testament. A lot of this issue has to do with understanding ancient near Eastern worldview and the worldview of the Old Testament. Walton's book is super helpful and valuable even if it doesn't end up convincing you or answering your question satisfactorily. Shalom!
Great cliff-hanger of an ending! Keep up the good work, you two! Thankful for what you're doing!
God bless you! Maranatha! Shalom!🙏👑💖🌈
Great lesson once again! It is such a blessing to arrive at Noah‘s Ark story on this Good Friday. Thank God for all the work He has achieved in you.
A great and satisfying lesson! It flowed smoothly so I could understand and follow it!!!!
I am impressed at the level of planning of vocab introduction -- as displayed in 'ha-ketz'! Thats some Orberg level stuff!
Thanks Beth. Really appreciate the new content and new words, as well as the recap on old stuff like counting and "ruah". Keep up the high-quality work.
Great new lesson and so long. This is really helping me along with the other ways I am studying.
Beautiful job.. excelente trabajo NO doubt.

How do you translate "nefesh hayah" ("alive"?), and what is the difference with "hayah"? Thank you!
It's usually translated as "living being" or "living soul." Nefesh hayah includes humans, but hayah by itself usually refers to animals.
@@AlephwithBeth oh, ok, I had not guessed it. Thanks !
As usual ,you are wonderful.Are these lessons from our beloved country ISRAEL ?
I lived in Israel for five months studying Hebrew, and Avram and I met there, but we don't live there now.

Czy imię pierwszego syna Noe - brzmi: "Imię"?
Is the name of the first son of Noah - "Name"?
How do you translate "hayat hasadeh"? "the living of the fields / the wild", literally? And "hayah ra'a"? "the wild (and dangerous) beasts"? thank you!
"the beasts/animals/living things of the field" and "wild/dangerous beasts/animals"
@@AlephwithBeth thank you!
Good evening! What is the difference between "adam" and "anashim"? Thank you.
Adam sometimes refers to a single individual man, but it more often refers to "mankind/humankind." Anashim is just a normal word for "people," the plural of "ish."
@@AlephwithBeth interesting. Thank you very much.
I don't understand. You pronounce ח as they do in Arabic. But it thought it was a hard H (خ).
Can you explain? Many thanks
Hi Felgrand, we recommend that you read our pronunciation article over at freehebrew.online
15:43 How does " וּנְשֵֽׁי " preserve the root of " אִשָּׁה. " again? I can't recall...
The plural of אִשָּׁה is irregular נָשִׁים, so then turn it to construct form and you have נְשֵׁי
@@AlephwithBeth thanks!

8:38 "atse-gopher" - can someone please remind me what the "gopher" means?
It seems to be the proper name of a type of tree/wood, but I don't think anyone has definitively identified what species it refers to.
@@AlephwithBeth whew, I'm just relieved it's not a basic vocab I'd forgotten :P Obrigado!
Nope, you're good! I just added it here supposing that people would probably remember the phrase "gopher wood" from their Bibles...
@@AlephwithBeth Interesting, maybe it's a thing in the English Bibles. NVI-PT has "madeira de cipreste". Good to know :)
Could be, I think at least in early English translations they just transliterated the word since they weren't sure what wood it was.
