I cannot find if it is translated into Hebrew. I would assume so, because the author is from Israel (He is a Palestinian Christian), and the book has been translated into 28 languages. I guess I figured maybe others had heard of this book. Basically, Elias Chacour grew up as a Palestinian...

hi, it's been a long time since i've posted here. during my Christmas vacation from seminary I read the book "Blood Brothers" by Elias Chacour. Have any of you read this? It was a very powerful book, and I think it will be one that affects me for the rest of my life. His vision of peace, and...

Yeah, I thought the Shma was a call to Israel... I don't want this to turn into a debate, but I thought the Shma would be good. I am a devout Christian, and already have a tattoo in Greek, and I wanted one in Hebrew as well, and I wanted something that really defined Judaism, so something...

I am considering getting a tattoo in Hebrew. Specifically, I want to get the Shma, due to its significance. I thought maybe using a Rabbinic script would make it look pretty cool as well. I love the Hebrew language, and I have spent the last year studying Biblical Hebrew, and in my class we...

we played the video in my Biblical Hebrew class a couple days ago. Most everyone really liked it, even though none of them were metalheads.

i've been studying biblical hebrew this school year, so i had some advantages, but it still took me a good 3 hours to memorize the song one evening. hearing the language sung, and reading it your own in class, are quite different experiences!

Awesome! Norra El Norra is one of my favorite songs from Mabool. Can't wait to see the video!

it may not be a lot of tickets, but the fest is a big deal in the USA. It sells out pretty fast every year. Plus, many metal shows in the USA could not sell a couple thousand tickets, the fan base is just way too wide-spread.

Tied for #1 Orphaned Land - Mabool Haggard - Eppur Si Muove 2. Sympathy - Arcane Path 3. Into Eternity - Buried in Oblivion

phew, glad to see it's not just some random problem with my computer. i did try it with WMP 10, winamp 5.04, quicktime v6.5.2. i also tried downloading it both in firefox and ie. anyway, i'm excited to see it soon.

i downloaded it but it won't play...

well on the 15th my group will be in Izmir, and a similar area on the 16th. I fly back to the USA on the 26th. the main problem is that i am going with a group on a preset schedule, so on certain days we go to certain cities...i won't just be roaming about by myself. that's where the...
