@@manuscriptspotlight9077 thank you, love it, I read scripture and listen to it every spare moment. Constantly seeking for the earliest texts, not to prove the existence of Jesus Christ as already believe but to seek the unaltered word in depth. I read the word a little differently to some I guess. I'm grateful you took the time and shared it. 🙂

I find it interesting that NaHash is used as a name of king and the same thing is the NaHash (same spelling) who decieved Hawah. A lot of people argue that the name or word could mean "serpent or shining" or could be both at the same time. Like a serap---a burning winged being with appearance of a serpent, a throne Guardian

life was brutal back in the day, what a fascinating read. it's amazing that anything not carved in stone or clay has made it this far along in time. thank you! -i was wondering if you would be interested in reading the sepher raziel? english translations leave out the talismans, so i thought perhaps translate the text around one of those.

Glad you enjoyed! I agree, every time I read one of these manuscripts it blows my mind that they've survived. I looked into Sepher Raziel, it's a little outside the current scope of my channel (and translating it is probably outside the current scope of my abilities), but I'll keep it in mind for a future video. Thanks!

@@manuscriptspotlight9077 thank you for looking into it. apparently, Dr. Skinner has a full translation including talismans, $50, -but hey, that's academia!

You're reading in modern Hebrew[language invented in 1880s], which I think should be mentioned. So people aren't confused and think you are actually speaking a language from 2000+ years ago.
