He said he knew Hebrew. I was testing him. I do know exactly what it says. Stay out of this. This is between Richard and me.

And he was wrong.

But they helped us learn a lot about Hebrew lexicography and advanced our knowledge far beyond that of Noyes or anyone else writing in the 19th century.

Only if you conclude they're the same word instead of homonyms, and not only can you not provide a single shred of evidence to support your claim, you cannot address the fact that the context militates against that reading. All you can do is ignorantly appeal to authority.

He's studied Biblical Hebrew. You posted Modern Hebrew. They're two separate languages, and you don't know either of them at all.

Only when you switch to the English version of the website. Don't lie to me, Eusebius. You couldn't translate Hebrew to save your life.

No. Translating Hebrew is part of my profession, and I'll not have an ignorant imposter try to destroy the credibility of my profession.
