Welcome to my Hebrew reading & language series.
Genesis 12:6-9
Modern day Shechem source
Our reading tells us that Abram passed through Shechem and went to the Oak at Moreh. The Cana-ani lived at the time. The photo to the right showed how Shechem looks today.
While he was there, El spoke to him and told him that he would give this land to Abram and his seed, and he build at alter to El in that land.
Modern day Beit El
Then he was off to the hill country just east of Beit El (house of God). He then pitched a tent and built another alter to YHVY. There was something supernatural happening to this man. He was being guided around the land in order to be the father of many peoples.
This video ends with an English paraphrased video instead of me simply reading the English from our Tanakh. The actors are speaking Hebrew under the dubbing, which offers a visual representation of what we are reading in Hebrew.
Please have a look and repeat the words after I point and read. See you in the comments section.
