The language of ivrit ( עברית ) Genesis 9, DTube Video #2
Welcome to my Hebrew reading & language series.
Genesis 9:5-7
Blood is important. We had read about Cain killing Abel back in Genesis four.
"What did you do?” God asked. “Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground..."
Now we are reading that we will have to give an account for any blood that we spill. The ESV says there will be a reckoning to be required for the life of a man.
In the Hebrew, it is similar but the word "man" is expressed in three different ways related to bloodshed.
I will require it from (the) man -Adam
From the hand of man -Eesh
I will require life of (soul of) Nefesh the man.
I am noting some of the more confusing vowel placements in today's video. I tell you how to pick them out from all the dots and dashes.
Please have a look and repeat the words after I point and read. See you in the comments section.

@hebrew,
It's good to see that first explanation with Hebrew and English! Really useful to learn it and again the video helps! Thank you very much for your effort of doing this every week!
Shabbat Shalom~
That's right, you have to pay for a mortal sin. Very interesting. Thank you
Bloodshed has always been banned, but until now there is still a lot of bloodshed, why this happened
I never like to bloodshed from my side and I know others also same like me.
Describe better to understand.
I like peace, without blood and conflict
I don't like bloodshed, because it's not good
So the word "man" can be expressed in three different ways? So is that the reason you made reference to it in text? Thanks really today featured two verses in chapter 9, thanks for an amazing video today I enjoyed this one
Good educative lesson. And good topic from bible . Shabbat shalom..
Another weekly hebrew tutorial. This would be very important to language beginners. Your work highly appreciated.
