Hebrew Glossary

Meaning: It has been done (nothing can be added and nothing can be taken)

Non-Hebraic Translators should have never changed Ameyn to Amen. The Hebrew word Ameyn means: IT HAS BEEN DONE. The non-Hebraic word Amen comes from pagan roots. Amen is the prefix of the pagan Egyptian/Babylonian deity AmenRA. Non-Hebraic translators dropped to suffix "RA".

Christianity attached the meaning to Amen as: So be it. The problem is that when a Christian says AMEN, they are saying "so be it" to a pagan deity.

Scriptural Truth Seekers should ONLY us the word "Ameyn"

(lit. "four guardians") A "shomer," or guardian, is someone responsible for an object belonging to another. The Torah describes four types of guardians, each with a varying degree of responsibility:   1) the unpaid guardian, 2) the paid guardian, 3) the borrower and 4) the renter. 

In Hebrew this term means: The Ten Utterances); The following were the Ten Commandments, or Ten Utterances of YAHWEH to the People of Yisrael at Mt. Sinai, which form the moral underpinning of human civilization.

1. "Anochi YAHWEH  El-o-ke-cha (YAH-o-ke-cha)…":   "I am the YAHWEH your MIGHTY ONE, etc." - To have faith in YAHWEH'S exitence, His concern for the world, His inter-vention at will in the affairs of the world, and His infinite might.

2.   "Lo Yiheheh Lecha …":  "You shall not recognize the gods of others in My presence, etc." - the prohibition against idolatry. One of the three Cardinal Sins, for which one must give up one's life rather than violate it.

3.   "Lo Tisa …": You shall not take the Name of YAHWEH, your MIGHTY ONE in vain, etc." - Do not disgrace YAHWEH’S  Name by using it for no  valid purpose.

4.   Version A: "Zachor et Yom HaShabbat L'Kadesho …":  "Remember the Day of Shabbat to Keep it Kadosh (Set Apart), etc. - Set Apart the “Day of Shabbat” by treating it as a “Day of Delight”, and by the recitation of Kiddush, etc. (Shemot 20:8-11)

      Version B: "Shamor et Yom HaShabbat L'Kadesho…":  "Protect the Day of Shabbat to Keep it Kadosh (Set Apart), etc" - Observe the “Day of Shabbat” as a “Day of Rest” by refraining from "Melacha," creative, purposeful interaction with nature, etc.               (Devarim 5:12-15)

5.   "Kabed et avicha v'et imecha…":  "Honor your Father and your Mother…" - Honor-ing one's parents is considered a basic commandment in the Faith System of Yisrael from the per-spective that there are three partners involved in the creation of a human being: (1) one's parents (Father and Mother) and (2) YAHWEH Himself. That is why this Com-mandment is included with the first five, which are considered basically between Man and his Creator.

6.  "Lo Tirtzach":  "You shall not Murder" - Since the human being is created in the "image of YAHWEH," the level of seriousness of violation of this commandment should not be minimized. Certain taking of life is sanctioned by the Torah, as is the case in the "arba mitot bet din," the four forms of capital punishment, which are at least theore-tically part of the legal code of the Torah; or the taking of life involved in a "milchemet mitzvah," "an obligatory war." However, outside of the limited exceptions, the dimin-ution of the "Tzelem Elokim," the "image of YAHWEH" in the world is one of the three Cardinal crimes, for which one must give up his or her life, rather than violate.

7.   "Lo Tinaf":  "You shall not commit adultery" - Strictly speaking, this prohibition involves cohabiting with a married woman; this is another of the Three Cardinal Sins, regarding which one must forfeit his life rather than violating.

8.   "Lo Tignov":  Literally, this means "You shall not steal;" however, this Command-ment has been interpreted to refer to only one kind of theft; namely, to someone who kidnaps a person, forces him or her to work for him, and then sells him or her into slavery. This, like the previous prohibitions mentioned in the verse, murder and adul-tery, is a Capital Crime; that is, punishable by the death - penalty. "Garden-variety" stealing is prohibited by the Torah in Vayikra 19:11, where it says "You shall not steal, you shall not deny falsely, and you should not lie one to another."

9.   "Lo Taaneh ve'reacha ed shaker":  "Do not give false testimony against your neigh-bor." Giving testimony is a very serious matter in the Faith System of Yisrael; one then has the power with words to directly affect someone else's life.

10.  "Lo Tachmod beit reiecha,…": "You shall not covet your fellow's house. You shall not covet your fellow's wife, his manservant, his maidservant, his ox, his donkey, nor anything that belongs to your fellow." This is an area where the Torah legislates regarding a person's inner thoughts and feelings. Only a YAHWEH the Lawgiver could possibly legislate in this way, for He knows our innermost thoughts and feelings. The meaning of the prohibition is that a person should regard another's possessions as totally beyond his possibility of acquisition

A TITLE that refers to a god. The term EL was used by pagan nations to describe their deities as Almighty entities. The major Hebrew word used to describe the relationship that YAHWEH had with Yisrael was no EL - IT WAS “AB/AV” and meant “FATHER”. YAHWEH IS THE FATHER OF YISRAEL HIS CHILDREN.

The “E” in EL is really not an “E” which is a vowel in Hebrew. The “E” is actually a concealment for the Hebrew Silent Letter ALEPH which numerically equals the Eternal Letters that form the Name YAHWEH. The descriptive Title hidden in the Hebrew Letter “E” relates to YAHWEH who is the ALMIGHTY ECHAD (ONE) 

Ten Plagues (the ten punishments administered by YAHWEH to the Egyptians):

1. "Dam" - All the water in Egypt turned to blood, including the waters of the Nile, the source of Egypt's wealth and economy

2. "Tzefardea" - Frogs; a total frog invasion of the Land of Egypt

3. "Kinim" - Lice; Pharaoh's magician's admitted that they had no power over creatures as small as lice; they described it as "a finger of YAHWEH"

4. "Arov" - Swarms of wild beasts; this was first of the plagues which showed YAHWEH’S mastery over the land.

5. "Dever" - Epidemic of pestilence against the livestock of Egypt

6. "Shechin" - Boils, or smallpox, which affected the magicians and all the Egyptian population

7. "Barad" - Severe hailstorm with killing potential; mixed with violent thunder and lightning

8. "Arbeh" - Total locust infestation of all the cropland of Egypt; what remained after the hail was consumed by the locusts

9. "Choshech" - Palpable darkness in which the Egyptians could not move

10. "Makat Bechorot" - Killing of the Egyptian first-born; YAHWEH "Passed Over" the houses of the Jewish People (origin of the name of the holiday of Passover, or "Pesach"), who had smeared the blood of the Pesach sacrifice on their doorposts. This plague "broke the back" of the Egyptians and, in particular, broke the arrogance and resistance of Pharaoh, who now "chased," so to speak, the Jewish People out of Egypt.

A process whereby both jews and gentiles enter into a relationship with YAHWEH through the two-fold finished work of YAHshua.

The first finished work of YAHshua was that He kept every dot and tittle of the Mitzvot of YAHWEH, which classified Him as ToRaH-ful/sinless, and qualified Him as the Mashiach of Yisrael.

Note: Without the above first finished work of YAHshua there would be no Second Finished work of YAHshua because the Second Finished work was dependent upon the First finished work.

The second finished work of YAHshua was that of paying the penalty of death for our ToRaH-less-ness/sins on the tree of Golgotha. He bore our ToRaH-less-ness/sins on HIS body and now we can declare "that with HIS stripes we (both jews and gentiles) are healed".

The finished work of YAHshua has made it possible that both jews and gentiles have access to a relationship with YAHWEH whereby we can know HIM, not only as the Creator, Sovereign King, and Ruler of the Universe BUT as our FATHER

Two related meanings:

1) holiness; A fundamental within the Faith System of Yisrael. The basic meaning is separation from the "general" and dedication to the "particular," as in the "Kiddushin," betrothal, of a "kallah," (bride), to her "chasan," (groom). In this context, she dedicates herself to him exclusively, out of the population of all the men in the world, as he in turn promises to her absolute loyalty and protective concern. Similarly, the concept applies to time, as in the “Set Apart” Day of Shabbat and the Chagim (Feast days - appointed times of YAHWEH), in the “Set Apart” Land. It also applies to language, as in the Kodosh (Set Apart) Hebrew Language, called so because it is the language of the “Torah”, it has no profanity, and among many other reasons, it is more than a set of symbols, for example; the word "light" in English is merely a symbol for the real phenomenon of light, whereas the Hebrew word for light, "ohr."

2)  A section of the Jewish Prayers when in the midst of the repetition of the Central Prayer by the Leader of the Prayers, the Congregation assumes the role of the angels and praises YAHWEH with the three-fold repetition, "Kodosh, Kodosh, Kodosh “ (Set Apart) is YAHWEH of ARMIES! The Whole World is Full of His Esteem!"

ToRaH-less-ness, Breaking the 613 Mitzvot (teachings, instructions, guidelines, directives, insights) of YAHWEH that are found in HIS ToRaH

The chosen people of YAHWEH. Father YAHWEH named them Yisrael when HE changed the name of Jacob (YAHaqov) to Yisrael.
