Chavarim:
I am a Rabbi and Hebrew teacher. I often am asked by my students why is there sometimes a Dagesh in a Gimmel {In Siddurim and other sacred texts} and other examples of Dagashim in Dalet and so forth,
as you too have certainly observed as well.
So I often answer my students by saying that I suspect that a Dagesh in a Gimmel means amongst the Yeminite a "J" sound as in "Jewish" as opposed to a "G" sound like in "Going" And for the Dagash in the Daled, I say that I suspect that the Yeminite make out of it a "TH" sound like
"The" And so you see, I am also a student and am constantly fascinated to learn more and know the reason why for a great many things. I was wondering if you have some knowledge and thoughts on this subject. Perhaps from more the Leshon Ha'kodesh perspective of your fine program.
With abundant admiration I certainly hope to hear
from you soon.

It would be ideal if I had someone to practice speaking hebrew with but I don't. I was thinking that perhaps watching childrens movies filmed in ivrit would help but where can I find those? I really need practice listening, comprehending and and answering.

Shalom, I have been with HOL for about 1.5 yrs and really love it.
You might want to find someone you can talk to with IM and video chat.
Also, I have about 5 Hebrew movies with English subtitles and have found this is very helpful. Also, I listen to Jewish music a lot.
You can go to Israel National News site & go to "Jukebox" and you will find a lot of great music you can download to Real Player.

I am fairly confused when it comes to Hebrew and how some things are translated. I would like to obtain some help on these translations. First off the last name is Brauda but in my research I keep coming up with these Hebrew translations of it.
בּראַוּדאַ
בראודה
ברוידה
I ran them through a Hebrew to English translator and they do not come back as Brauda. It leaves me sort of confused because mostly I get back Berauda for the first 2 translations. I am trying to find a uniformed spelling of Brauda or possible various different ones to aid me in my genealogy research. Also I should not the last name is often spelled Braude instead of Brauda depends on what country your looking in.
Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!!

Shalom Alison,
Since the name Brauda was pronounced BROY-DE in some Eastern-European accents, it is usually spelled in Hebrew as follows:
ברוידא
I hope this helps.

Can someone translate this for me? All I've been able to figure out in the last two days is the last word, which i think means quiet or silent.

The verse is:
"This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel
after that time," declares the LORD.
"I will put my law in their minds
and write it on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people."
But I am trying to narrow the verse down to just the second quote ("I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people") but because of my non-existent knowledge of Hebrew I cannot make heads or tales of the translations I've found in order to narrow the Hebrew down to just that part of the verse.
If anyone could give me a proper translation of just that portion of the verse I would be very appreciative.

Josh Mohler,
!שלום (Shalom)
Here follows a translation:
נתתי: I have given / allowed'
את- ët-; accusative indicator
תורתי To•râ•ti′: My Tor•âh′
בקרבם bә-qirb•âm′; in the inside of them, in their innards'
ועל- wә-al′; and upon;
לבם lib•âm; the heart of them, their heart
אכתבנה I will write her/it (i.e. the fem. noun, Tor•âh)
This is a translation of one of the two sentences you wanted help with.
Source:
www.netzarim.co.il ; History Museum (left panel); 135 C.E. (top menu); link: Displacement….
As an advice: If you want to study the Jewish Scriptures you need to fully rely on the Hebrew text; not on translators. I recommend you to use: Etymological dictionary of Biblical Hebrew (author: Matityahu Clark).
Hope this helps!

Thank you Anders, that was very helpful. Although you brought up a good point. Instead of relying on any translation I decided to go back to the original Hebrew. However, I cannot make out, within the verse, where the portion I want is.
I've included the translation I found, and was wondering if anyone could point out where the phrases "I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts" and "and I will be their God, and they shall be My people." both begin.
Also, I was curious what the symbol ":" means in Hebrew, as I have seen it at both the end and beginning of verses.
כי זאת הברית אשר אכרת את בית ישראל אחרי הימים ההם נאם יהוה נתתי את תורתי בקרבם ועל לבם אכתבנה והייתי להם לאלהים והמה יהיו לי לעם׃
Thank you again, very much,
Joshua

Greetings in the name of Yahushua!
I am a new member and have enjoyed reading the articles, resources, and posts on the site!
I am a husband and father of four in Augusta, Georgia, USA. I have become extremely zealous and passionate about Yahushua and the Scriptures, especially over the last 12 years as our family has spent a lot of time in Yah's furnace of affliction to refine, try, and test us! Our family's suffering and afflictions have been the catalysts that Yahuah has used to humble and break our wills and our agendas! Now our only agenda is Yahuah's agenda! Once that occurred the door of discovery has opened beyond our wildest dreams!
I have studied YashaYahu (Isaiah) 53 as it relates to the life of Yahushua and would like to ! I would like to humbly offer some insights into what I consider the most solemn and set apart truths about Yahushua's sojourn on earth that I or anyone else will ever write or will ever speak of!
Here is the question about Yahushua’s ministry that we all should ask ourselves! Why, if one considers all the never before seen miracles that Yahushua performed by the thousands across the whole Land to multitudes of the poor and needy, why was it so hard for them to come to the obvious conclusion that Yahushua was indeed their long awaited Messiah! Why was it so hard, why, why, why? The answer to all these questions can be found in YashaYahu’s strange report #53! The answer was not so obvious to them way back then and still not so obvious to many today! Those people were faced with a huge dilemma way back then and they reacted to that dilemma the same way that many people will react today, when they read the information below! Some will receive it and follow it up with their own thorough investigation coupled with sincere prayer, but many will not be willing to even consider it or pull the strings!
In YashaYahu 53:4 and 53:8 the use of the transliterated Hebrew words, choliy, makob, nagua or naga, naka, anah, and nega have been glossed over and misunderstood for at least 1700 years! YashaYahu was instructed to write this immensely important and solemn report so that all Yahuah's children would recognize, understand, and embrace the "Real Yahushua"! Much of what YashaYahu was trying to convey about Yahushua has been misunderstood and continues to be rationalized away by scholars, preachers, Torah teachers, and the masses, who depend solely on their teachings alone. The truth about the words that YashaYahu wrote about our Messiah in YashaYahu 53 paints a most solemn and heart-breaking portrait, very heart-breaking and very qodesh indeed! The message that YashaYahu wrote makes my love for Yahushua go off-the-charts! I am not fully able to grasp or put into words the kind of love that Yahuah and Son, Yahushua have for the people they call Yisra'el!
YashaYahu said that Yahushua would be despised and rejected by men. Why would Yahushua be despised so much considering Yahushua healed tens of thousands directly or indirectly through His Talmidim? Yahushua raised the dead; healed the blind from birth, and healed those suffering TZARA'AT, the Living Death (known in error as Leprosy today)! Why was Yahushua so despised and loathed by so many? Why did YashaYahu say that people would hide their faces from our beloved MessiYah and regard Him as cursed? Why did YashaYahu say that Yahushua would experience our sicknesses, diseases (#2483), and our mental and physical pains (makob) by first hand experience? Remember that Yahuah refers to Yisrael (including us) without the covering of Yahushua in YashaYahu Chapter 1 as Sick, Plagued (naga) with putrefying, and decaying sores from head to toe! Ever since Adam and Hawwah touched (naga or nagua #5060) the fruit from the Mixed Tree, The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, mankind has been sick and dying from the Inside Out with Tzara'at, the Living Death, death mixed with life! Spiritually Adam and Hawwah were dying inside out, while they lived a

Bragg Williams,
Hello!
You do write about the Christian J*esus, even if you use another name for him.
le-havdil,
If you want to know how to follow the historical Jesus you should study what Historical Scholars in leading universities says. The Creator of this universe is intelligent and facts and historical evidence in this universe cannot possibly contradict Him.
There is only one way to follow the historical Jesus. The name of the historical Jesus is Ribi Yehoshua.
A quote from the Scholar James H. Charlesworth – The historical Jesus:
“[Ribi Yehoshuas] devout Jewishness. [Ribi Yehoshua] was a very devout Jew. [p.48] (..) [Ribi Yehoshuas] devotion to Torah and Judaism is evident also in his actions. During his last week alive, [Ribi Yehoshua] was in Jerusalem. Why? Ha had ascended to the Holy City to celebrate Passover, as required by Torah. During this week, [Ribi Yehoshua] taught in the Temple and, quoting the revered prophet Isaiah, called the Temple “a house of prayer” (..) Thus, [Ribi Yehoshua] should not be imagined as the first Christian. He was a very devout Jew who observed Torah (the Law [Instruction is the correct translation] recorded in the Bible). Perhaps, as previously mentioned, he was so devout that he wore the religious garment of a conservative Jew, the sitsit [ציצית ; tzitzit], which pours outside the outer garment with fringes (..) “
The commentars in brackets are mine.
Quote from: James H. Charlesworth is George L. Collord Professor of New Testament Language and Literature and Editor and Director of the Princeton Theological Seminary Dead Sea Scrolls project.
The only way to follow Ribi Yehoshua is by practising Torah non-selectively!
For in-depth information about the historical Pharisee Jew and Ribi unequaled anywhere, take the on-line course from the first follower of historical Ribi Yehoshua to be accepted in the same Pharisee (Orthodox) Jewish community as historical Ribi Yehoshua since 135 C.E., and foremost authority on historical Ribi Yehoshua and his original Netzarim Jewish followers, Paqid Yirmeyahu (www.netzarim.co.il) --a former Baptist preacher who has translated the NT from all of the earliest extant source mss. up through the 4th century C.E.
Finding the historical Jew, who was a Pharisee Ribi and following him brings you into Torah, which gives you a rich and meaningful life here on earth and great rewards in life after death (“heaven”)!

The name of the historical J*esus is not le-havdil (to differentiate) Ribi Yehoshua.
The historical J*esus is an oxymoron. There was a historical Pharisaic first century leader named le-havdil (to differentiate) Ribi Yehoshua. This is not the same person as the Christian J*esus.

I know how to conjugate verbs in present, future & past tense. But I don't know how to do the other tenses. For example, how would you say:
I should have bought that book
or
I will have bought that book.
Thanks.
Barbara

Shalom Barbara,
Here is the translation of the sentences. Since composed tenses do not exist in Hebrew, we usually use the three regular tenses: Past, Present and Future. (and in some cases we use other ways to express the composed tenses).
I should have bought that book.
הייתי צריך/ה לקנות את הספר ההוא.
I will have bought that book.
אקנה את הספר ההוא.

I understand that "Jessica" is derived from the the Biblical "Jesca", but I was wondering, how would the name "Jessica" be written out in modern times in Hebrew? A name converter site recommended it be spelled "גסיקה" with a gimmel, but then, would it sound right, or would a yod be more appropriate? I wonder if there are any Jessicas who have moved to Israel and who spell their name any certain way.

What rule(s), if any, exist that govern the use of Aleph (or Ayin, for that matter) when the letter is not pointed. For example, were I to hear the first word in Genesis (b'reshet), how would I know to include an unpointed Aleph when writing the word as heard?
