Nehemia Gordon, a Karaite Jew and academic scholar, relates how he joined together with Keith Johnson, an African American Methodist pastor to study an original Hebrew version of the Gospel of Matthew. Gordon explains the flaws inherit in the best translations and explores the rich meaning in the word puns only present in the Hebrew text. He focuses on passages from the Lord's Prayer, which led him to the realization that the concept of God as Father is also prevalent in the Tanakh (Old Testament). Gordon concludes with a moving account of a personal revelation of God's Fatherly love and his willingness to carry the sin debt for us.

Shema O Israel, YHVH Eloheinu, YHVH ECHAD! Baruch Shem Kvode Malchutoe La olam Vaed! Hear O Israel, YHVH is God and our YHVH is ONE. Blessed be the Name of His glorious Kingdom for all eternity!

Interesting, I attend a traditional conservative synagogue and our rabbi actually did a teaching how the Lord's Prayer is very similar to the the Amidah. Actually he spent two Shabbats on it.

@72Yonatan 9 лет назад

Tyus Durant - That may be true - but the original our father prayer is in Aramaic, not Hebrew. What I find deceptive about his lecture here is that the original New testament and gospels were written entirely in Greek and they are not Hebrew or Jewish documents at all, but Roman propaganda. This guy is making money by giving lectures, but he is a huge bullshitter. And the person christians call Jesus is a Roman fabrication because they needed a passive messiah. It is a fraud.

Returned To First Love - I worship the ONLY True God, and He saves. Yoshke is a fictional account, and has never ever existed except in the pages of a Greek book. You worship emptiness, and the memory of a dead Roman emperor cult.

@72Yonatan 8 лет назад

Returned To First Love - I have a free will choice to accept the truth of God's Torah and His faithful prophets, and to reject Roman propaganda built upon idolatry. Easy choice to make, really easy choice.

@72Yonatan 8 лет назад

Returned To First Love - Sorry, but there is not any reference to a messiah born of a virgin in Jewish texts. Do not bring up Isaiah 53, because there is no virgin mentioned there, and the reference to a pregnant maiden obviously implies that she is married, and with child. Virgin births are a product of the ancient pagan civilizations and are not a concept found among any Hebrew text.

@72Yonatan 8 лет назад

Returned To First Love - I speak Hebrew and I read Hebrew as well, and I know the difference between the word almah and betulah. So you are wasting your breath with false statements here. Give it up.

The site of the splitting of the rock where the water poured out, the real Mt. Sinai, the calf carved on a rock, some minorah’s carved in a rock. So cool to be able to see pictures of that...I wish I could see it first hand. Unfortunately all of this will likely be buried soon as Saudi Arabia is building their largest city there now. NEOM is the name of it...

@jewishmessiahyeshua 4 года назад

Hello Nehemia Gordon hope you answer there is one major problem with your theory that this version of Mathew is based on the original. The ancient historians church elders have written that the original Mathew which was known as the Gospel of the Hebrews as used by the Nazorenes and Ebionites DID NOT HAVE THE FIRST 2 CHAPTERS OF THE VIRGIN BIRTH NARRATIVE so this means this 14th century manuscript is not based on the original Mathew written in the 1st century AD

@BrandiNaCole 6 лет назад

Hi Nehemia, If I want to understand the authentic Hebrew text translated to English to accurately read the bible, and any other books that were essentially written in Hebrew, like Matthew, which bible translation should I read? The Complete Jewish Bible (CJB) or The World Messianic Bible (WMB)? I don't have time for errors. Everyone raves about the KJV, but it's clearly inaccurate and flawed. Time to go back to the roots. Update: Never mind, neither of those seem to be accurate either. Man, what in the world do you read?

@jamespimental6919 5 лет назад

Brandi Na'Cole as long as you understand that LORD in the king James was used instead of YHWH after the tradition of men. the king James is the most accurate English translation. I believe yah protected the translation. even allowed his name to be lost for what I believe is a couple reasons. first man doesn't really deserve his name and also if we don't know his name there will be a lesser judgement for taking his name in vain so he's actually doing mankind a service as well as protecting His name from the world dragging it through the mud. look at how the world uses Jesus Christ as a cuss word all the time. men, woman, young, and old everywhere you go whenever someone gets mad..... Jesus Christ they say. not only that but as a follower of Jesus I couldn't even tell you how many times I've been talking about Jesus trying to share him with people they get angry and don't want to hear it.

Nehemia answers that question in a RU-vid interview: 'What bible translation is best? -Q&A with Michael Rood.' He gets specific at the (1:52) mark and the (2:25) mark. He recommends for Christians the NRSV: New Revised Standard version. For Jews, JPS: Jewish Publication Standard. He also mentions the NASB.

I want to clarify something, for many jews belivers in Yeshua, Yeshua is God Himself. But not only that in the New Testament, Yeshua is the Spirit of God, it is the Holy Spirit and is the Spirit of the Messiah. But when Yeshua came to earth, He only came as Messiah. Nehemias seems to scare the Ruach Kadosh, jajajajajajajaja , he talks so much about Yeshua that one day he will knock him down like Paul from the horse, but he does not want to admit it

This is not the original Hebrew Mathew, it was compiled hundreds of years ago from our existing Bibles. The original gospel of the Hebrews was destroyed around the 4th century AD with the persecution of the Ebionites first Jewish followers of Jesus. Ancient historians who have kept around 20 lines documented also have stated that the original gospel of the Hebrews did not contain the virgin birth story or the wise men. This part of the story was interpolated into the original gospel of the Hebrews around the 2nd century AD by Roman and Greek scribes who followed the legendary stories of virgin births such as Hercules and Nimrod and Horus. The legend of Nimrod even states 2000 BC that his wise men saw a star signaling the birth of a child (Abraham) and then Nimrod ordered the killing of babies sounds familiar and the pagan celebration of Nimrod was even done on the 25th December by the Romans, Greeks and Egyptians prior to Jesus Show less REPLY
