Mycenaean Hebrew

Post by Ethan »

There is many similarities between Mycenaean and Hebrew.

In Mycenaean, DI־DO means "Give" and resembles תת

DIDO־MI תת־י "I Give"
DIDO־SI תת־תה "You Give"
DIDO־ME תת־נו "We Give"

In the New Testament, Thomas had two other names, Didymus and Nathaniel "Given by God"
and identical with θεόδοτος, ἀνάθημα and δεδομένος a translation of נתינים in 1 Chronicles 9:2.
* διδυμάων : תאומים/ תומם "Twice-Given"

In Mycenaean, the verb KA־UE means "Burn"
-כוה, כויה , מכוה ,תכוה

MA־RE "Wool"
-צמר , עמר

This is the LINEAR A ideogram for Oil

LINEAR B

In Greek, the word is Ελαιον and ELEIFA in Etruscan and in Hebrew, חלב (ἐλαίου > ἐλυ > חלב)
Image
חלב/ἀλείφω - Cooking Oil/Fat
חלב חטה/ἄλφιτον - wheat groats

χρυσός - זהב חרוץ ( χρυσίου > σιοϝ/זהב/דהב)
Image
Ϝοἶνος - יין , גפן
Image
Ξύλον - צלמ, צאלים
Image
αιΓ - עז
Image
Βατον, Βοᾷς - כבש

But what differences?

DIDO־MI תת־י "I Give"
DIDO־SI תת־תה "You Give"
DIDO־ME תת־נו "We Give"
I'll transcribe the Hebrew:
tt-i
tt-th
tt-nn

Not much in common. Compare Greek and Hebrew verb conjugations -- very little resemblance.
In the New Testament, Thomas had two other names, Didymus
The Greek word looks very obviously related to the Greek word for two: duo.
MA־RE "Wool"
-צמר , עמר
Greek mallos.

(Words for oil) -- that suggests a borrowing, a linguistic process that Ethan ignores.

A word-for-word translation. Talk about linguistic naivete.

Deuteronomy 29:3 (KJV) - The great temptations which thine
Deuteronomy 29:3 Interlinear: the great trials which thine eyes have seen, the signs, and those great wonders;

Selecting a few convenient examples is NOT the same thing as giving complete inflection paradigms. When one does that, one finds that Greek is VERY different from Hebrew.

Can anyone explain the double articles present in both Greek and Hebrew?

KING

Linear B - Phoenician - Greek
Image

Wa-Na-Ka
Ma-La-Ka

Wa (Digamma) is lost in later-Greek and so only Na-Ka is retained

N turns into L. e.g. שמש = sōlus = ἠέλιος

La-Ka > ReX (Latin) mLX (Phoenician) ἀΡΧός (Greek)

The first glyph in the word KING, represents WA is very similar too Linear A glyph for WINE.

B & M frequently interchange in Phoenician and Latin.

The common Greek word for a King is βασιλεύς but in Phoenician
the word is more like Μασιλεύς or Μσλ/משל which means RULE.

Gen 1:18 - Rule (משל) over the day

Linear B
qa-si-re-u 'king,local leader'
