Show and Prove.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allah
How do you want to handle this? Over the internet or over the phone? I don't think we live close enough to meet in person, but I may be wrong. PM if you want to handle this the right way.
Lessons, I don't speak on lessons like that over the net.
Quoting is simple, it's living it out that I'm concerned about. Are you just quoting or are you living it out?
Where?
And perhaps the Hyksos introduced the term?
Why are you citing them? they spoke Semitic.Quote:
Amongst the Akkad you will find it written as iluh.
Akkadian
1855, from Akkad, name of city founded by Sargon I in northern Babylonia, applied to the east Sem. language spoken there (c.2300-2100 B.C.E.), preserved in cuneiform inscriptions.
Quote:
Amongst the Canaanites it is written as il.
That all these had variants of the word doesn't prove that it did not originate in the original Hebrew, that is, the original pure language of God. ALL the nations spoke dialects of that language.
Quote:
Egypt gave Phoenicia their alphabet system. From that point you have a proto-Semitic script dividing into it's various offshoots.
That alphabet script is the original Hebrew.

Hebrew is not the original language. There were many languages spoken before hebrew. What kind of religious mumbo jumbo are you coming with?
Holy means seperarted for God's use, and I trust my handling of the sword.
It's general information. Or are you implying that it is a fringe website beyond the scope of "reliable sources"?Quote:
or the fact that you posted an article from wikipedia as if it's a reliable source.

It's obvious that you don't have knowledge of the origins of the word Allah. Whatever you say on this topic is only an opinion. God don't deal with opinion, he has knowledge and wisdom, not opinion.
If you don't know why is it so hard for you to say I don't know. When you try and pretend that you know you make yourself out to be a liar.
All original nations spoke the same language at one time. Genesis 11:1. That language was the original Hebrew LA-SHA-WAN-QA-DASH, "the pure tongue". Hebrew comes from the word I-BAR-YATH which means "OF THE PAST". Meaning from the beginning, the original. (note: not to confused with that Greek influenced modern Hebrew language of modern so-called Israeli's)

There were many languages spoken before hebrew.
Just like with most everything else the whiteman taught you (strarting with those 19th century German higher critics of the Bible), it's the other way around, all languages came after the Hebrew.

What sort of Straw Man question are you asking me? Please cite where I have once spoken of any religion or of anything religous.
The word Allah comes from the original Hebrew word AH-LA and means POWER.
But what WAS obvious was you erred using the Akkadians as a source to prove the word Allah to be pre Semitic when they themselves were speaking it.
Let's go the etymology and see if it's an opinion, or rather is based on the study of origins of words.Quote:

Allah
1702, Muslim name of the Supreme Being, from Arabic Allahu, contr. of al-Ilahu, from al "the" + Ilah "God," rel. to Heb. Elohim.

You niggas paranoid! Nigga this is referring to him calling me out on not calling him Allah on a previous post and no, "true muslims" will not call him "God" (capital G; lower case g is taboo but if its referring to a person's self-imposed title is probably OK). If it really matters The Father would probably be an OK alternative for me, as muslims generally don't see God as their father and it is a generally acceptable social title (Father Catholic Priest etc).
Black Man... this is your maturity level:
"Hey what's on TV?"
"Call it Television or I won't tell you!"
How can a man have the right direction for another man? Thats like saying I know you better than you. Be humble.
Let's just say the person who did the etymological research there was a "whiteman" (which of course you would have to PROVE if you were to make this point) -- but before you do that, where is YOUR source that I've advocated against any, or all research, that happened to be done by a whiteman??
SHOW AND PROVE.
By knowing the right direction. How can a person bring somebody into the knowledge of who they are if they themselves don't know? Marcus Garvey, rise up you mighty people! He knew something the people didn't know. The so-called american negro is the original man, elijah muhammad. He knew something about the people that the people didn't know.
Thank you for taking the little credibility you may have had off the table. Perhaps you are just a believer then?
You're losing everybody here. Since the present subject being discussed is the origins of the word Allah-- Tell us exactly how any person has "lived" to witness it's inception and evolution from thousands of years ago.Quote:
or any white person, it comes from those who actually lived it.
See above. And take note that I have also cited a ETYMOLOGICAL (you do know what that means, right??) source.Quote:
I go directly to the source not wikipedia.
Quote:
That's how I know "hebrew" isn't the original language among other things.
And how is this possible again? Because you know those who have "lived it", correct?!
lol @ this thread
