"Do not swear" (Alah)

[Teritos]

Jesus in the bible swears an oath over 200 times. Anytime he says, "Amen", that's an oath. If those statements are not literally true, then, according to your assessment, he is liable for the death penalty

Amen means "Truly" or "so be it". This word is used to strengthen/confirm a statement. To equate this with an oath is an exaggeration. And even if Jesus had sworn, he as God is allowed to do so. He is perfect and therefore would not misuse it.

Comparing the hebrew word alah, with the name Allah is equally exaggerated.

That's the point.

Its not just exaggerated. Its absolutely absurd.

Its "Ameen" in Greek. Not Amen, which is English.

Your logic is most absurd. Also, you have absolutely no knowledge of any of these languages. I mean not even LKG. Whats strange is that you make an absurd statement like your OP, and have no response to some valid posts, but you make another absurd case without addressing the issues with your OP.

But that type of thing is interesting to watch. Its nice.

I do not think that was very nice of Moses. But one can expect such savagery in Abrahamic religions.

Thats the definition of bigotry, like you claimed you would be accused of one day. I say "aye".

You do know that Wallah mean I swear by God, and that is not swearing in the bad way. it is like saying i swear by God that i speak the truth. it is not like using english swearing words

Huh, interesting. Wallah entered the Hebrew slang many years ago from the Arabic (like some other Arabic terms), but in Hebrew slang it's like saying: "Huh, you don't say?" or "Oh, really?"

Its the same in arabic slang as well. Its the tone of use that changes the meaning in slang.
