Items related to The Word: The Dictionary That Reveals the Hebrew Source...
Genesis II supports a Mother Tongue thesis, and the Bible also claims that Adam named the animals. This may seem difficult to accept, but then why do the translations of the following animals' names: Skunk, Gopher, Giraffe and Horse actually have corresponding meanings in Biblical Hebrew, such as: Stinker, Digger, Neck and Plower? This landmark book features overwhelming data suggesting that the roots of all human words are universal, and that words have related synonyms and antonyms that must have been intelligently engineered . The current hypothesis that language evolved from grunting ape-men may seem like the flat earth theory, after reading this book. Ideal for word buffs and anyone learning Hebrew vocabulary.
EXCERPT: In the beginning were these words. Come with me on an archeological dig. Let us remove the sands of millennia. We are deep in the valley of Shinar, reconstructing the Tower of Babel-one brick, one word at a time.
