	BRS 1 The Hebrew Scriptures - NationsUniversity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Hebrew was the language of the Jews; Aramaic was a more widely used language in the Middle East; Greek was the common language during the days of Jesus.
		It is clear that the Hebrew Scriptures have been referenced in many ways during the time of their existence.
		When the Hebrew Scriptures were translated into Greek, some of the books had to be divided because the Greek language had vowels and necessitated roughly twice the space to print the contents.

	The Holy Scriptures (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		It is remarkable to anyone who studies them how Scriptures written over a period of at least 1,200 years by a large number of diverse authors in several languages all bear witness fundamentally to the same understanding of the nature of God.
		Some form of the Hebrew Scriptures was accepted as authoritative at the time of Christ as He frequently referred to passages contained in them.
		The final canonization of the Hebrew Scriptures was probably complete before the end of the first century A.D. It was in the second century before the church decided it should have a Christian canon.

	Chapter 1: What is the Tetragrammaton?
		The earliest Hebrew inscriptions known are recorded in an ancient script considerably different in form from the square-shaped Hebrew letters of later documents, such as those of the early centuries of the Common Era.
		Since Hebrew is written from left to right, the ancient Hebrew character y and the modern Hebrew character y are both Y (Yohdh); h and h are both H (He'), and w and w are both W (Waw).
		The Hebrew character represented as "W" in the English transliteration of YHWH is waw (w).

	Who Are They? - Jehovah's Witnesses Official Web Site
		They rely on both of these, the Greek and the Hebrew Scriptures, and take them literally except where the expressions or settings obviously indicate that they are figurative or symbolic.
		The Scriptural account that Jehovah's Witnesses draw on for their name is in the 43rd chapter of Isaiah.
		There the world scene is viewed as a courtroom drama: The gods of the nations are invited to bring forth their witnesses to prove their claimed cases of righteousness or to hear the witnesses for Jehovah's side and acknowledge the truth.

	The Making of the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures
		In addition, Hebrew can be written with consonants alone, and signs to indicate vowels (and thus reduce ambiguity) were a late development; the standard arrived at by the Jewish "Masoretes" was not made final till the sixth to ninth centuries.
		The final canon of Hebrew scriptures reflects the choices made by the Pharisees, whose teaching dominated the Judaism of the synagogue before and after the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 A.D. The lead was taken by rabbis of Palestine and the eastern diaspora, and works that had long been used elsewhere were rejected.
		The Prophets The second main division of the Hebrew scriptures is known as "the prophets," though it also includes the historical books of Joshua, Judges, 1 and 2 Samuel, and 1 and 2 Kings.

	Uniplurality in the Hebrew Scriptures
		Normally in the Hebrew scriptures, when a non-divine messenger is relaying a message from God, it is clearly indicated in the text that the messenger cannot be confused with God (such as when a prophet states, "the word of the LORD came unto me, saying..." or "The LORD spake unto Moses saying...").
		The consistent use throughout the Hebrew scriptures is of this sort: either describing a "one" which is made up of many (such as a bunch of grapes) or a one which is part of many like to it (such as one sheep among a whole flock of sheep).
		Given the consistent and vigourous emphasis of the Hebrew scriptures upon the uniqueness and monotheism of God, it is highly unlikely that the latter is meant with "echad" in the Sh'ma.

	from jesus to christ: the first christians: from hebrew bible to christian bible
		War songs such as Exodus 15 and Judges 5 are very archaic Hebrew and celebrate Israelite victories from the time preceding the Israelite monarchy under David and Solomon.
		Another section of the Hebrew Bible consists of the prophets (Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, the twelve "minor," i.e., brief, prophets).
		For Christians, of course, the most important issue was the true import of Jesus and the story of his life, death, and resurrection.

	Is God's name absent in the Christian Scriptures? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Neither the Tetragrammaton (in Hebrew letters) nor an equivalent Greek transliteration in Greek letters (apart from Revelation 19:1, 3, 4, and 6) occur in any of the voluminous Greek manuscripts which are available today.
		Therefore, unless we deny the inerrancy and inspiration of the Greek Scriptures, we are left only with the alternative that God directed the apostolic writers to use the Greek word Κύριος rather than the Hebrew word יהוה.
		Frequently within the Greek Scriptures, there are instances in which the writer was referring to Jesus as Lord, but was ascribing to him attributes or actions reserved for deity.

	The Septuagint--Useful in the Past and the Present - Jehovah's Witnesses Official Web Site
		The Jews of Alexandria had probably still less knowledge of Hebrew; their familiar language was Alexandrian Greek." Evidently, in Alexandria the climate was right for a translation of the Hebrew Scriptures into Greek.
		The Christian Greek Scriptures contain some 320 direct quotations and a combined total of perhaps 890 quotations and references from the Hebrew Scriptures.
		As a result, the quotations taken from that translation and not from the Hebrew manuscripts became part of the inspired Christian Greek Scriptures.

	THE HOLY SCRIPTURES
		The division of the Hebrew and Greek texts into paragraphs, as well as the indentations of the Greek text, is according to the printed text of NW.
		The first printed Hebrew text to introduce the division into chapters and verses was the second Polyglot at Antwerp, 1569-72, and this division was used in the subsequent editions, including BHK and BHS.
		However, variances occur in the divisions of the chapters and verses between the English version and the Hebrew, Greek, and Latin texts, and such are indicated in the Tables of Variances.

	Kitvei HaKodesh - Hebrew Scriptures
		The Hebrew Bible is called the Tanakh (sometimes transliterated as Tanak or Tanach in English), an acronym for Torah, Nevi'im, and Ketuvim (note the gerashayim in the Hebrew acronym).
		Though the Christian Old Testament is the result of the canonization of the Jewish scriptures, the order of the books in the Tanakh is not identical to the Christian Old Testament (though content is the same), and chapter and verse references are not always identical between the Old Testament and the Tanakh.
		Because the message of the Good News of Redemption is “to the Jew first, and also to the Greek,” as Paul himself notes in the letter to the Romans (Romans 1:16, 2:10).

	The New World Translation and Hebrew Versions
		Reliance on Hebrew versions to supplant the Greek text of the Kingdom Interlinear Translation is an acknowledgment by the New World Bible Translation Committee that these Hebrew versions carry greater authority in the 237 Jehovah references than do the best extant Greek manuscripts which universally use Kyrios.
		Hebrew versions identify Jesus with Hebrew titles of deity in stark contrast to the identification that he is given in the New World Translation.
		The single merit of these Hebrew versions as resource material is their reflection of the viewpoint of Hebrew translators who are both fluent in Hebrew and yet have come to acknowledge Jesus as Israel's true Messiah.

	Hebrew Bible - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The use of the term 'Hebrew Bible' is considered as a neutral term that is preferred in academic writing over the "Old Testament", which alludes to the Christian doctrine of supersessionism, and to the "Tanakh," the common Hebrew acronym which is unfamiliar to many English speakers and others.
		Hebrew in the name may refer to either the Hebrew language or to the Hebrew people who historically used Hebrew as a spoken language, and have continuously used the language in prayer and study, or both.
		Indeed few practising Jews would ever refer to the "Hebrew Bible" and this term is commonly used by non-Jews namely Christians.

		The Hebrew tetragrammaton (YHWH) traditionally pronounced Jehovah (q.v.
		Hebrew was originally written without vowels, but when the vowel points were added, the vowels of Adonay or Elohim were written with YAHWEH, as a direction that these words were to be read instead of the word whose consonants were YAHWEH; thus we find the combinations YeHoWaH and YeHoWiH.
		Note Yahweh's Name, indicated by the arrow, in the ancient Hebrew script while the rest of the text is in a more modern Hebrew that was used at the time.

	what scholars have said about the greek translation of the hebrew scriptures (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The translators of the Jewish Scriptures, the Greek-Jewish Pythagorean-Buddhist sects of Alexandria, Egypt, 200 years before Jesus, wrote "into" their Greek translations of the Jewish Scriptures the religious beliefs of their sect intermingled among the pages of their Old Testament translation.
		There are literally hundreds of embellishments, but let me give you one such example as I have dealt with hundreds of examples of the corruption of the Jewish Scriptures when then were translated on another website that you might wish to examine to see the evidence for yourself: http://faithofyeshua.faithweb.com.
		Needless to say, the Jewish Hebrew Scriptures do not read like this Greek "messianized" translation and many passages which read as if they were "messianic" in the Christian Old Testament were never given by the prophets as recorded in the Christian Bibles.
