That second pic with the naked ladies in the tub sure looks like the same word over and over and over ...

Peeps made to look like naked women?
The guy was way ahead of his time.

“naked women...magical powers”
That’s a universal constant, just like the gravitational constant G or Planck’s constant h. Some things just never change through recorded history.

Did Jack Daniels exist back then?

It would appear that Voynich has figured out how women work, and wanted to share that knowledge - unabridged - with the world.

I would like to think that the green is more aligned with grass (like an Easter basket) rather than fluid that color...
Whichever, it’s a mystery. Maybe Qanon can drop some hints...

Guessing, but with the writing supposedly being Hebrew and the naked ladies in the tub, said tub is probably a mikveh.
To: mairdie
Very hard to believe he didn’t at least consult a Hebrew language expert. Relying on “google translate” for research purposes is like being served a rewarded Big Mac at a steakhouse

I’m no expert, but I thought old Hebrew did not have vowels in writing until Aaron ben Moses ben Asher, a Jewish scribe who lived in Tiberias in northern Israel and refined the Tiberian system of writing vowel sounds in Hebrew.
Originally, the Hebrew alphabet was an abjad consisting only of consonants, scribes later devised means of indicating vowel sounds by separate vowel points, known in Hebrew as niqqud.
To: mairdie
Now a computer scientist says...the code involves shuffling the order of letters in each word and dropping the vowels. How do you like that? The author of the Voynich Manuscript was Q-Anon's great-great-great-[lots more "greats" here]-grandfather.
