Welcome to my DTube Hebrew reading & language series.
The full study is now on line covering the Alef-Beyt here in my blog. This is a beginners program to teach letters, vowels, and reading. The vowels are marked in this bible and are designed to help avoid confusion on what a word is and how it is pronounced. The confusion is obvious in the hundreds of interpretations globally. In modern Hebrew, only children need a niqqud or vowel marking for each letter. Old manuscripts also usually have vowels marked.
We are reading Genesis 3:15-16
There is a lot in these two verses. Take a look at the first word of verse fifteen: "v'evah" or and enmity.
Rarely if ever will you hear this word used in English, but the word Eva or Eve seems to be commonly known as the wife of the first man in several languages. I am curious whether she was called Eve to somehow equate her with enmity itself.
In Hebrew her name is "Chava" or "Hava" which at some point was interpreted as Eve.
Moving on
I have marked a key prophecy in blue that talks about the "seed of the woman" that would bruise the head of the adversary's seed, presumably a male son. Then His heel would be bruised, a matter of faith, but explained as being fulfilled at the end of Yeshua's life, when a spike was driven through His ankle / heel, and the stake was put into the head / skull at Golgotha (cover photo). Golgotha means the "place of the skull." This is a very interesting Messianic passage.
Picking apart letters
Below, I have marked several words ending with Chaf Sofit where they mean "you" in all instances. The vowel changes depending on who the "you" is. Is he talking to a male or female? If male, the pronunciation is "cha" (marked in black). But if female, it is "ach" (marked in pink).
