Were they gluten free, too? /thread slide>
Paleo Hebrew is mentioned in the Talmud as still in use during the 2nd Temple period, though not as widespread as it once had been. I’ll have to find the source, but I remember it from Tractate Megillah.
Paleo was in general personal use in the first century AD.
That is the script that all of the NT letters were first written in, as witnessed by their presence in the Vatican archives.
The Aramaic style text was chiefly used by Masorite scribes in copying their scrolls. (this was a good thing!)
Thanks SJackson.
It was far from the nearest ocean...............
How many Nathan-Melechs who were 'servant of the king' could there have been????.....
They have physical extant letters? Pretty awesome. Every bit of the Dead Sea finds that I’ve seen facsimiles of were written in Aramaic script of some sort, but I haven’t seen all of it.
They do not want to confirm the Bible in any shape or form, do they?
.
I would guess that they have hand copied MS of the original letters in Hebrew.
You would have to ask Nehemia Gordon for a better answer. He is the guy that found them.
Solid proof of Paul’s declaration to the Romans that the word (”oracles of Yehova”) are committed to the House of Judah!

I read the first lines of your post and immediately thought it was you, LOL.
This ring means a LOT to me, because Josiah was Manasseh’s grandson. Manasseh was the first Judean king to sacrifice his son and he was taken prisoner to Babylon. He repented while there and was forgiven by God, went back to Jerusalem and tore down the altars.
Josiah was the one who lead the nation to a great revival. The Babylonian conquest of Judah was not complete until a couple of kings after Josiah when they started sacrificing their babies again.
Because invasion and conquest is the Biblical consequence of child sacrifice, I am hoping the finding of this ring NOW means that God will allow a revival (world wide) before the Great Tribulation. Just a sign to me. :)
Did you know that there is a Bible in the works that will translate directly from the Aramaic and not the Greek? I keep waiting for it.
The history of the Kurds is intriguing but I will chat with you about that in a bit.
OK, yes I know about Manasseh and his son.
These are truly interesting times.
More proof the Jews were never in the land of Palestine [sarcasm/]
I think the Muslims are still holding to that story.
