The Subversive Hebrew Language

Hebrew and Hebrew speakers will not be destroyed by a cultural boycott put forward by proponents of degrading culture for political ends. “Bereishis Bara Elohim Et Hashamayim Ve’Et Haaretz.” These words are the opening to the most famous books ever written, in its original language. In English they read, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.”

      I'm a friend of Bob Peragallo's and don't know why FB lets me comment of your page (which I like) but want to say that for a free dose of Hebrew try YOUTUBE. Dozens of great ones abound. "How to say ___ in Hebrew etc." I review b/c i forgot most of what I learned of it at UCD. Hebrew is in a sense more simple b/c no intransitive verbs i.e I man and you woman. No "a" only "the" pronounced "heh" Go for it!

    • Thanks Patricia for your comments and keep them coming. Yes my hope is to start this year. Pray for me that the Lord opens the door. Angela B

      Okay, Angela. As He reminds me I shall pray.
      But remember–"Pray sailor pray–but row to shore." i.e. He might be waiting for you?

    • Love it. I think P.Bob use to say "God can't move a parked car." But no offense to P.B. I like your saying better. I have to write it down.

  2. Patricia Jean Nash says:

    Richard Wagner–without a doubt–the world's greatest ego maniacal Composer and employer of the lietmotiv–who with his operas was the greatest proponent of drama bordering on histrionic personality disorder–who thought the world should revolve around his operas–his religious experience–his god–for whom he built his own theatre for worshipful patrons. YOU WROTE: "When Wagner directed the work of Jewish composers, he reportedly immediately discarded the gloves that he wore during the onerous task."
    I daresay anyone who touched his gloves became contaminated by the seething hatred evil perverse twisted genius of Wagner–a truly pathetic soul. There are 100s of biographies of him if anyone wishes to confirm that his opinions were faulted by his own weakness and his own religion of EGO.
