It says a lot how full of themselves Jews are that they started claiming Adam spoke Hebrew. It's like saying everything Jesus said must have been in Greek, because the Gospels were written in Greek.

Something like that.
Multiple verb subject object orders, tenses that could be unknown to us now, context dependent syntax, next level comprehensive vocabulary.
It's hard to imagine.

>>18114132
Hebrew in the form known to antiquity didn't exist before the division of tongues.

>>18114219
Yeah, it's cringe that they unironically pretend this.
Sure God divided the tongues of every nation, BUT NOT OUR LANGUAGE DEFINITELY NOT. It's literally perfect btw and there's no evidence at all it ever changed. Whatever you do dont look up how the Hebrew letters were pronounced 2000 ybp and find the source material containing the spelling of their full proper names.

That's because they invented the whole story of Adam and Eve. Of course they also clai that they spoke hebrew and that hebrew is the language of God. Muslims claim the same with arabic.

Cool baseless speculation with no evidence whatsoever you got there.
Yes the famous monkey man OOOH AAAAH EEEEK *chest thumping noises* dialect so famously attested in the fossilized stick scratches in ancient mud. Riveting.

This is a thread about a bible story and it's linguistic implications if true.
In that context, I can work under the assumption that it happened without necessarily accepting that it really did.
It's called entertaining an idea without accepting it, Socrates said this is the mark of a mature intellect. Something you will never have.

literally the very exact opposite is also true. christcucks and jews have been saying if everyone believes in rabbi jesus and torah the kingdom of god will get established and yet the most christian period in history is called the dark ages because it's literally hell compared to the antiquity as people are burning 12 year old 15 year old girls claiming they were witches, nobody's writing great works, plays or poems etc, nobody's doing science, nobody's discovering things, in fact they are now denying the shape of the earth, magnificent statues are being destroyed, temples are being destroyed, people like Hypatia are being lynched in streets murdered, torn to pieces, limbs are carried around the town and set on fire by these semitic beasts for not worshiping a semitic rabbi. there are self starving "saints" who are living on top of pillars literally in their own shit and piss and so on
>>
>>18115521
>people are burning 12 year old 15 year old girls claiming they were witches
A nitpick, but I believe that was mostly a Late Medieval/Renaissance phenomenon.

Pretty sure we've known the Earth was round since the ancient Greeks.

completely false. schizophrenic witch hunts became a thing as soon as constantine and his judeochristian friends took over the empire since 4th century.
Hypatia is 4th century, Synods of Elvira and Ancyra are 4th century, Augustine of hippo is 4th century, Penthekte synod is 6th century, Aethelstan is 10th century, Olaf is 11th and i could go on. Christianity had caused this craze and hysteria that women were inherently evil because it was eve who first ate from the apple and convinced adam to eat from the tree. Even Joan of arc was accused of witch craft albeit was burnt at the stake at the age of 19 mainly for heresy rather than witchcraft and she was a devout christcuck.
You're also a braindead illiterate normie retard who doesn't even know renaissance was the secularization era and precisely when the witch hunts stopped

>>18115528

christians refused that and actually put to death anyone who said otherwise but of course you don't even know that

Certified midwit take.

Christians put people to death for heresy. The shape of the Earth was never dogma and nobody was put to death for merely saying it was round.

Is this normal? Let me remind you that Mary, in the Fattis Apparitions, speaks of sacrifices, self-sacrifice, and says that this is God's will. This is very suspicious.

Also, the Book of Revelation mentions the HARVEST several times.

Genesis wasn't written by Adam and Eve. It was written by Moses, who knew Hebrew.
That's why it has Hebrew puns, not because Adam and Even spoke Hebrew.

I don't know if Homo Erectus could speak or not. From what I know paleontologists found out that neanderthals very likely had languages.
You seem triggered by that. Do you deny evolution or what creationists often call macroevolution?

There is a difference between trying to argue under the assumption that it was true and being spammed every day by christian schizophrenia on this board.

They don't trigger any autism in me. I treat them like I treat greek mythology. What triggers me are the christian schizos or worse muslim schizos on /his/ or other boards.

The bible condemns sex outside of marriage but not pedophilia neither do judaism (3 year old child can be raped in the talmud) or islam (9 year old bride).
I say this to every christian. Your anti-pedophilia morals don't come from christianity. They came from the enlightenment era which at least the hardcore e-christians hate.

They aren't different.
They are two different perspectives on the same creation.

Genesis 1 is from God's perspective, Genesis 2 is from Adam's.

>>18118227
Someone else replied to you without saying NTA.
Yes it is accurate.
You don't have to be an eyewitness to write down an accurate account, journalists do this regularly.
Adam didn't write Genesis, Moses did. He wrote it in Hebrew because that was his people's language, not Adam's.
>>
>>18120050
>Neanderthals had languages.
>You seem triggered by that.

Of course they did. But there is no proof.
Things can be true that are impossible to prove. A lot of the time they're even obviously true, and yet cannot be definitively proven.

>being spammed every day by christian schizophrenia on this board
>treat them like I treat greek mythology
The only spamming going on is the fedora brigade constantly posting bait threads.
You absolutely do not treat these subjects the same.
The open hostility on display for Christianity in particular proves this.

How is it an accurate account if he described people making puns that they couldn't have made because they only worked in Hebrew?
>>
>>18120931
1. How do you know they didn't work in the Edenic language? 2. The purpose of the puns is not to impute them directly to the people at the time but to translate the names and meanings which were held in the unknown Edenic language. As anyone who knows how translation works is aware, literal 1-to-1 translation is not the only kind which is "accurate", and some times would not be accurate at all. So it can be both different and accurate.
>>
>>18120936
You mean the dialogue in Genesis is a dynamic-equivalence rendering from Edenic to Hebrew?
>>
>>18120940
Can you prove it isn't?
>>
>>18120942
That's not how burden of proof works.
>>
>>18120943
My argument is not that it was a dynamic equivalence but that it could be, the burden of proof is on you to prove it couldn't be because you're the one making a big deal about things that only work in Hebrew. If you fail to disprove this it wouldn't mean it was a dynamic equivalence translation, it would mean your argument was arbitrary.
>>
>>18120951
Isn't it being a dynamic equivalence with the actual words having been lost to time an argument against the perfect infallibility of the Bible as God's word?
>>
>>18121021
Only if you think a dynamic equivalence is automatically a mistranslation.
>>
>>18121045
Not that it's a mistranslation, but that it's not what they actually said. Why do you think it's so improbable that one of the builders had his language left untouched? (Or perhaps Eber refused to participate in the building, as Muslim scholars have suggested.)
>>
>>18121049
>Eber refused to participate in the building, as Muslim scholars have suggested.)
Where does the tower of Babel appear in the quran?
>>
>>18121049
>Not that it's a mistranslation, but that it's not what they actually said
That's basically a distinction without a difference. What they actually said was in a language other than what Genesis was written in, so insofar as it is translation it must be "not what they said" no matter what. If you mean that it misrepresents them, then that's the same as a mistranslation. Biblical inerrancy means that everything the bible says is true, it doesn't mean the bible is an mp3 recording.
>Why do you think it's so improbable that one of the builders had his language left untouched? (Or perhaps Eber refused to participate in the building, as Muslim scholars have suggested.)
Because that contradicts the text.
>>
>>18121058
>The 13th-century Muslim historian Abu al-Fida relates a story noting that the patriarch Eber, the great-grandson of Shem, refused to help with the building of the Tower of Babel. As a result, his language was not confused when the tower was abandoned. He and his family alone retained the original Adamic language, which he identified as Hebrew, a language named after ĘżEber.[9]
>>
>>18121062
If you confuse the language of all humanity, the one person who's left speaking the same language won't really be any better off, will he?
>>
>>18121093
I asked about the story of Babel in the quran. It doesn't seem to be there. Of course later islamic scholars were also heavily influenced by christians and jews and adopted stories of them that weren't in the quran.
