Spirit not Mechanics

'Learning' Hebrew is not like learning any other language and it's NOT memorization. It's truly immersing your spirit in this heavenly language - awakening the Holy language within your spirit. So it is spirit not mechanics.

Gen 1:1-3 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. Then God said, 'Let there be Light' and there was Light."

Hebrew is the language Adonai spoke when He created the heavens and the earth…powerfully displaying the creative power of the Word. Hebrew is the language He spoke to Adam – who partnered in naming animals, spoke to Eve (Chavah, referred to as mother of all living, lifegiver), Noah and others in those generations… unlike any other ‘religion’ the Torah alone shows that every Jewish man, woman, and child alive in 1312 B.C.E. — about three million people, according to the Torah — heard God speak at Mount Sinai and survived to teach their descendants about the event. As Yeshua is the Word (Torah) made flesh...we are becoming the same and so immersing in Torah, in Hebrew, is the L-rd transforming our physical flesh into Torah flesh.

and write each letter over and over...that is part of how you can flesh out those Holy letters that are written on your heart - hand, heart, eyes all being involved in the process.

Immersing in Hebrew...Parshah Yitro: Shabbat

Even if you 'know' only a few words in the passage below...with the English/Hebrew and transliteration, you will probably be able to figure out word meanings and that is one of the best ways to awaken Hebrew in your spirit...just dive in.

Exodus 20:8-11 from Parashah Yitro (Torah Portion Jethro)

⁸ “ Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. ⁹ Six days you shall labor and do all your work, ¹⁰ but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. ¹¹ For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
זָכוֹר אֶת-יוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת, לְקַדְּשׁוֹ.

9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work

שֵׁשֶׁת יָמִים תַּעֲבֹד, וְעָשִׂיתָ כָּל-מְלַאכְתֶּךָ.

10. but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates.

וְיוֹם, הַשְּׁבִיעִי--שַׁבָּת, לַיהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ: לֹא-תַעֲשֶׂה כָל-מְלָאכָה אַתָּה וּבִנְךָ וּבִתֶּךָ, עַבְדְּךָ וַאֲמָתְךָ וּבְהֶמְתֶּךָ, וְגֵרְךָ, אֲשֶׁר בִּשְׁעָרֶיךָ.

11. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

כי שֵׁשֶׁת-יָמִים עָשָׂה יְהוָה אֶת-הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֶת-הָאָרֶץ, אֶת-הַיָּם וְאֶת-כָּל-אֲשֶׁר-בָּם, וַיָּנַח, בַּיּוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי; עַל-כֵּן, בֵּרַךְ יְהוָה אֶת-יוֹם הַשַּׁבָּת--וַיְקַדְּשֵׁהוּ.

Hebrew: the language within

I began to learn Hebrew around October 2007 and have been shocked at how much I've gotten out of the time I've spent. If Hebrew, (hearing it, speaking it or just seeing it in print) somehow stirs your spirit, give it a try. I truly believe that as we expectantly enter into this holy language, it’s not so much that we are “putting in” something new, but that which our spirit already knows is “rising up,” reviving that heavenly language from dormancy. Just as the Torah is being written on our hearts, (has already been written on our hearts in G-d’s time), this ancient language has been written on our hearts as well. So as the Torah, the written Word, becomes Flesh...the Hebrew letters of that Word can become Flesh within us and begin to enter our spiritual understanding.

Here's one example of the benefit of beginning to understand Hebrew: adam (אדָם - read from right to left) means man or mankind. It is spelled א (Ah) represents G-d and דָם (dam) means blood. So adam means G-d's blood...there's so much more to this but that's just a little taste of the treasures you will find if you begin to study this Holy language.
