Greece conquered the entire Middle East and translated many Torah into Greek tongue. Mostly Hellenized Jews created the Septugiant, Syncretised copy of Judissm, as they were living in North Africa the heart, seat and bedrock of paganism.


The Septuagint is a greek TRANSLATION AND TRANSLITERATION of the hebrew bible.

I’m talking about the ORIGINAL language that the hebrew bible was written in.
The origin of judaism is firmly rooted in paganism.
God simply means idol.

Goth means deity or deities but it isnt the same as Demon.


What is the root word of God?
The English word god comes from the Old English god, which itself is derived from the Proto-Germanic *ǥuđán. Its cognates in other Germanic languages include guþ, gudis (both Gothic), guð (Old Norse), god (Old Saxon, Old Frisian, and Old Dutch), and got (Old High German).

Is the word God derived from Sanskrit?
The word God etymologically is cognate with a Sanskrit root — Hutam, someone you offer oblations to.




Cognate doesn't mean it's derived. Sanskrit was originally a monotheistic sacred language of the Vedas of the Yavadas.

Canaanites were a Semitic people who began to occupy the Levant, including Phoenicia, Palestine, Syria and Jordan from the Early Bronze Age onwards.

nearly all scholars say the early Hebrews were rural Canaanites who settled peacefully in the hilly interior, gradually developing small village settlements as they spread southwards from the region of the Jezreel Valley, eventually developing a very separate ethnic identity from their forebears. The Hebrew language developed from its Canaanite roots around the beginning of the first millennium BCE.

Canaan
Ham's son

Canaan (Hebrew: כְּנַעַן – Kənáʿan, in pausa כְּנָעַן‎ – Kənā́ʿan), according to the Book of Genesis in the Hebrew Bible, was a son of Ham and grandson of Noah, as well as the father of the Canaanites.

I don’t think the ”book of genesis” is an history book.
Israelites are common Cannanites according to history and archaeology evidence.

And the people that wrote, edited and complied the torah into a CANON are honest people and not trying to push the jewish agenda?

Noah, Abraham, moses, jacob etc only exist on the pages of tanakh.

Even the name IsraEL comes from cannanite national god called EL.

Abraham migrated from Chaldea and the land given unto him by God was adjacent to Canaan. This means Canaanite the language of the region prior. So Hebrew does contain some Canaanite borrowed words yet this isn't to be taken they were the same people. The Franks were German and spoke a German tongue yet when the Salic Franks crossed the Rhine into Gual Latin was the dominate language. Yet French evolved from German, Gaul and Latin into a language much different from German.

None of your business and has nothing to do withe topic.

The events described in the Genesis account of Abraham did not occur, making the actual existence of Abraham quite improbable. For example:

He could not have travelled from Ur of the Chaldees, because the Chaldean people did not migrate into the region of Ur until over a thousand years later.
He could not have met the Philistine kings, again because the Philistines did not arrive on the Levantine coast until around 1250 BCE, long after the time attributed to Abraham.
The destruction of Sodom is a myth and the city of Sodom never really existed.

Abraham only exist in jewish mythology.
Does your father even know you?

The historical answer is that Abraham never did exist. There is no extra-biblical evidence either in the Mesopotamian or Egyptian records and, more importantly, simply too much contrary evidence.

The biblical answer, according to the Masoretic text (the Septuagint and Samaritan texts differ a little), is that he was born around 1948 years after the creation of Adam and that he died 175 years later. This would mean that he lived about 2056 BCE to 1881 BCE. These figures do not stack up, as the following shows:

We now know that modern humans have been on earth for over two hundred thousand years, so the creation of Adam and Eve just over 6000 years ago has to be seen as allegorical.

Again you are using Greek Egyptian logic to interpret Hebrew Scripture written with Hebrew Block Logic.

6 days is not referring to a 24 hour period adding up to 1000 years for Each.

Days are deis or deities.

Thus when it says that the LORD created the world in 6 days and He rested on the 7th its is saying that, He created the world from 7 holy angels who are lower emenations of Himself. Time does not exist for God for He has no beginning or ending.

Where did the word day come from?
The term “day” came from the Old English term dæg, which means day or lifetime. The days of the week though were derived from Roman deities, with Saturday as the first day of the week. When the pagan Romans started worshiping the Sun more, the first day of the week became Sunday

It's not in your blood to even grasp the concept if your forefathers have been pagans for thousands of years and you syncretise your traditions with Christianity. I would never impose religion on another knowing the science behind bloodline.


Prior to European colonisation, throughout the African continent we see far different, more relaxed attitudes towards sexual orientation and gender identity. As far back as 2400 BC tombs have been excavated in ancient Egypt with two men’s bodies Niankhkhnum and Khnumhotep embracing each other as lovers. In addition to their acceptance of same sex relationships, Ancient Egyptians, similar to other civilisations at the time not only acknowledge a third gender, but venerate it. Many deities were portrayed androgynously, and goddesses such as Mut (the goddess of Motherhood; lit. translation Mother) and Sekmeht (goddess of war) are often depicted as women with erect joysticks.

This was not unique to Egypt or this time period. In the 16th century, the Imbangala people of Angola had “men in womens apparel, with whom they kept amongst their wives”. In contrast, King Henry VIII had just signed the Buggery Act in 1533 in England, which criminalised sex between two males. The last men to be sentenced to death by hanging in England were in 1835 for engaging in homosexual sex; whilst at the same time there was an openly gay monarch, King Mwanga II of Buganda (present day Uganda), who actively opposed Christianity and colonialism. The Igbo and Yoruba tribes, found mostly in present day Nigeria, did not have a binary of genders and typically did not assign gender to babies at birth, and instead waited until later life. Similarly the Dagaaba people (present day Ghana) assigned gender not based on ones anatomy, but rather the energy one presents. In the royal palaces of Northern Sudan, daughters were sometimes given slave girls for sex.

For centuries, across the African continent there was a completely different attitude towards sexual and gender identities. Many African countries did not see gender as a binary in the way that their European colonisers did, nor did they correlate anatomy to gender identity. In no African country prior to colonisation do we see any persecution of LGBT individuals because of their sexuality, nor any anti-LGBT laws.
