J?

[Don Penguinoini]

Is there something to do with this letter in Christianity? Joseph...Joseph...Joseph Smith...Jesus...Jehovah? Maybe there is?(two josephs, because there were two josephs)


Any Thoughts?

Hebrew Alphabet.

 

[Don Penguinoini]

Oh, is it?

 

[TheWhiteWizard]

Yes, all were common Hewbrew names I beleive.

 

[Popeyesays]

But there is no "J" in the Hebrew alphabet.

Could have also been "Dy".

(Take the song from Led Zep titled "D'yer Mak'er" - say it fast and often enough and it sounds like "Jamaica" - which by the way is a hint to the reggae sound of that song...)

Enough with the Led Zeppelin...

Jumping Jehoshaphat or yumpin yiminy. I've always enjoyed the Zep's level of sophistication.

A Gimel looks a little like a "J" but I don't suppose that is it?

Don't confuse them with facts ...

 

[Valjean]

J = Y?

J = Y?

That's right.

 

[sojourner]

What about Jeroboam, Jehosaphat, Jehu, Jesse, Jeremiah, Joel, James, Judas, Judith, Joses?
And what's up with Zerubbabel???

I can't believe you missed Joshua.

And "J," the Yahwehist author of the OT.

 

[farfignewton]

Yeah, Joshua is the most important one there!

*wistles innocently*

Actualy, the origional book was called Yashua, the hebrew word for Jesus. *Yashua Mashia = Jesus the Messiah*
Good ole Constintine changed it to Joshua so that there wouldnt be as much confusion.

That is a remarkably ignorant statement.

I'm hoping that eventually if I drill it into you enough you'll convert!!!

But on that note, I swear that Led Zep had something going with this J thing as well!!

Jimmy Page (considered, by many, to be a God in his own right as a guitarist)
John-Paul Jones
John Bonham.... (Also, considered by many to be a drum-God *although, not to be confused with Demi-god*)

EDIT: and even Bonzo's son, Jason Bonham!!!!! Why hasn't this been picked up earlier guys!!!

 

[farfignewton]

That is a remarkably ignorant statement.

Thank you.

I dont know why it was changed, but I figured poking fun at the whole "Constintine changed the bible" thing would be fun.

(glad someone caught it.... oh, and I found you sig worthy. )

The Hebrew for MNessiah is "moissach".

:thud::thud::thud:

But as others have pointed out, the J thing is actually closer to a Y.
