RE: The ancient language of ivrit ( עברית ) - Zayin - Vowels & Reading
Very good lesson ... upvoted ! I like how you compare the letters to objects that we can remember. Zayin the sword.

The meanings for Hebrew letters were determined around or before they were scratched onto rocks. Generally as a rule, the first word that begins with the first occurrence of any letter lends the greatest weight to its meaning.
Thanks. I see that now from the images you have posted. This is extremely interesting. So happy to learn this very ancient language.
How old is the Hebrew Aleph Bet ? Is Aramaic older ? What is the earliest date for the symbols scratched on rocks ? 5778 years ago ? Earlier ?
Lots of questions.
Here is some of the very oldest...
I recognize a Mem and a He here and there. There are charts where "scientists" guess the age of these things.
Here is one of the rocks at the food of Mt. Jebel wher Moses was told to bring the children of Israel "back to this same mountain" when he was living in median. And he brought them back to that same mountain which is still scorched black to this day.
Fantastic. Thanks so much .... sorry for so many questions but I am thirsty to learn all I can about this beautiful language of the Torah
It's a thirst for everything we can all learn about this beautiful language.
That is very True.... a thirst to understand God Himself
