I'm not sure on what wall this image is engraved, but what language is engraved on the tablet?

Just look at it and tell me that those are the founding fathers with the 10 amendments. Good grief charlie brown.

The following does appear substantial:
  1. the spurious nature of the 'Weinman letter,'
  2. the genuine nature of the 'Gilbert letter,'
  3. several handwritten documents including at least one in Adolph Weinman’s own hand, describing the tablet as the 'Ten Commandments,'
  4. not to mention the facts (from 'National Treasure') Adolph Weinman created just a couple years later an exact duplicate of the tablet in the center of East Frieze over on the Oscar Straus Memorial in D.C. and called it 'the Ten Commandments'
  5. that architect Gilbert planned and displayed six other depictions of Moses and/or the Ten Commandments on the Supreme Court Building,"

This bold-faced "31st" doesn't match the rest of the typeface on a letter purportedly supporting the "Weinman" letter.

Hmm. We've seen something very similar before...

Rather than comment on the script in the letter,,,
"The pastor said in his earlier research that letter "likely" is bogus"
I had nothing to do with this letter!

Believe that it's Hebrew, judging by the preceding figure, if I had to guess I'd say it looks like a procession of Law Givers. The figure in front of the one bearing the Hebrew text has a Babylonian "look", cap, beard, robe makes me think he's Hammurabi, followed by Moses.

What is worse is the idea that "if" they were speaking about the Bill of rights, then who exactly is delivering them?

Ping for later

What is all the fuss? everyone knows that our Founding Fathers sat around the old courthouses naked except for a drape or a robe. Clearly this frieze is a historical representation of the humanistic amendments.

It looks like modern Hebrew ... an example from the 20th Chapter of Exodus, where the law was given to Moses. I tried to post the Hebrew script but the computer couldn't duplicate the Hebrew and it came out weird.

Here's Modern Hebrew, as it comes through with the FR translator ìà éäéäÎìê àìäéí àçøéí òìÎôðéÓ

I'd say it's all Greek to me, but I'd recognize the Greek. :-) I think you guys are right—It looks like Hebrew.

It does seem rather familiar. I don't quite know why, though...

There were 12 items on the Bill of Rights....the first two amendments were not immediately ratified. The second item was ratified after some 200 years. ("No salary raise for Congress until an election of Representatives"). The first item on Congressional apportionment has never been ratified.

Pastor's Business Card

A new pastor was visiting in the homes of his parishioners. At one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door. Therefore, he took out a business card and wrote "Revelation 3:20" on the back of it and stuck it in the door.

When the offering was processed the following Sunday, he found that his card had been returned. Added to it was this cryptic message, "Genesis 3:10."

Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation, he broke up in gales of laughter.

Revelation 3:20 begins "Behold, I stand at the door and knock." Genesis 3:10 reads, "I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid for I was naked."

Remember when the funniest jokes were the clean ones?

They still are!

"A cheerful heart is good medicine" (Prov. 17:22)
