    "blood brothers"

    I cannot find if it is translated into Hebrew. I would assume so, because the author is from Israel (He is a Palestinian Christian), and the book has been translated into 28 languages. I guess I figured maybe others had heard of this book. Basically, Elias Chacour grew up as a Palestinian...

    "blood brothers"

    hi, it's been a long time since i've posted here. during my Christmas vacation from seminary I read the book "Blood Brothers" by Elias Chacour. Have any of you read this? It was a very powerful book, and I think it will be one that affects me for the rest of my life. His vision of peace, and...

    hebrew tattoo

    Yeah, I thought the Shma was a call to Israel... I don't want this to turn into a debate, but I thought the Shma would be good. I am a devout Christian, and already have a tattoo in Greek, and I wanted one in Hebrew as well, and I wanted something that really defined Judaism, so something...

    hebrew tattoo

    I am considering getting a tattoo in Hebrew. Specifically, I want to get the Shma, due to its significance. I thought maybe using a Rabbinic script would make it look pretty cool as well. I love the Hebrew language, and I have spent the last year studying Biblical Hebrew, and in my class we...

    NEW VIDEO SHOT TODAY !!!!!

    i've been studying biblical hebrew this school year, so i had some advantages, but it still took me a good 3 hours to memorize the song one evening. hearing the language sung, and reading it your own in class, are quite different experiences!

    Help us advertise OL`s show in PP6!

    it may not be a lot of tickets, but the fest is a big deal in the USA. It sells out pretty fast every year. Plus, many metal shows in the USA could not sell a couple thousand tickets, the fan base is just way too wide-spread.

    Most depressing song you know?

    Alice in Chains - Down in a Hole when you really focus on the lyrics and think about Layne Stayley's life, and the manner of his death, this song is very very depressing. not necessarily in a way that makes me cry, but it just shows the immense struggle he went through his whole life, and he...

    Mabool language question

    so, are the nonbiblical hebrew portions, the yemen language then? i'm learning Biblical hebrew right now but some of the font is pretty difficult for me to navigate through (the kiss of babylon, asalk).
