In Genesis 2, the Bible tells us that Adam and Eve ate from the fruit of "the tree of the knowledge of good and evil",וְעֵץ הַחַיִּים וְעֵץ הַדַּעַת טוֹב וָרָע. For many years, this fruit was portrayed and thought to be an apple. But in reality, the Bible does not say anything about an apple. So what did they eat in the Garden of Eden? What is the forbidden fruit?
Was it an apple?!
The description of the tree of "the knowledge of good and evil" leaves no trace as to the exact species of the tree. For many years, this fruit was thought to be an apple. In the original Hebrew, however, at no point is the apple (tapuach, תפוח) mentioned. The myth of the apple developed due to a mistake made by St. Jerome when he created the Latin version of the Bible, known as Vulgate in the year 382.
The forbidden fruits
So what fruit was it then? Jewish sources offer several answers: nut (אגוז, egoz); citron (etrog, אתרוג); vine (gefen, גפן); wheat (חיטה, chitah); and fig (tenah, תאנה). The two most widespread interpretations are those of the vine and the fig, the prevailing one is of the fig as it is the first tree that appears in Genesis. Moreover, the text recounts that when the first couple realized that they were naked, they sewed a loincloth using a leaf of the fig tree.

When you read the Bible, don’t you want to know you are reading the source? Wouldn’t you like to clear the fog of hundreds of years of translation? If you want to really grasp the meaning of the words of Scripture, you must set aside all these translations and get back to the original language: Hebrew.

SCIENCE LESSON: THE EVIL CARBON DIOXIDE - -Mt Pinatubo spewed more than entire human race in its history on the planet!!!
'The volcanic eruption in Iceland. Since its first spewing of volcanic ash, it has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.
The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four days - yes, FOUR DAYS - by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased every single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon. And there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planet spewing out this crud at any one time - EVERY DAY.
I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should mention that when the volcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, it spewed out more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth.
Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you, on the basis of the BOGUS 'human-caused' climate-change scenario.
Hey, isn't it interesting how they don't mention 'Global Warming' anymore, but just 'Climate Change.
It's because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past century and these global warming advocates got caught with their pants down.
And, just keep in mind that you might yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme - that whopping new tax - imposed on you by your government, that will achieve absolutely nothing except make you poorer.
It won't stop any volcanoes from erupting, that's for sure.''

Where Does the Carbon Dioxide Really Come From?
Professor Ian Plimer's book in a brief summary:
PLIMER : "Okay, here's the bombshell. The volcanic eruption in Iceland. Since its first spewing of volcanic ash, it has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.
Of course, you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress - it's that vital chemical compound that every plant requires to live and grow and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans and all animal life.
I know....it's very disheartening to realize that all of the carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kids "The Green Revolution" science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your SUV and speedboat, vacationing at home instead of abroad,nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50 cent light bulbs with $10.00 light bulbs.....well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes in just four days!
The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four days - yes, FOUR DAYS - by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased every single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon.

Yes, folks, Mt Pinatubo was active for over One year - think about it.
Of course, I shouldn't spoil this 'touchy-feely tree-hugging' moment and mention the effect of natural solar and cosmic activity, and the well-recognized 800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which keeps happening despite our completely insignificant efforts to affect climate change.
And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud, but the fact of the matter is that the wildfire season across the western USA and Australia this year alone will negate your efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years. And it happens every year.
Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you, on the basis of the BOGUS 'human-caused' climate-change scenario.

In recent weeks, reports of several highly successful vaccines have given many people hope that the global COVID-19 pandemic is finally beginning to draw to a close. A vaccine prevents the body from getting sick by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies. But what about the soul? If only there was a vaccine against spiritual illness. What does the Bible say about this?
The Origins of the Word
As vaccinations against COVID-19 pick up speed around the globe, let’s look at the word “vaccine.” In English, the word “vaccine” comes from the Latin vacca meaning “cow” because 19th century scientists first discovered that a virus called “cow pox” could effectively immunize someone against smallpox. This is interesting but not spiritually uplifting. The Bible does not mention vaccines because they are a very modern phenomenon… or are they?
The Lord Makes Us Strong
In Hebrew, the word used today for vaccine is chisun חיסון which comes from the Hebrew root HSN חסן meaning “strong.” The Book of Psalms says, “O Lord of hosts, who is as mighty (chasin) as you O Lord?” (Ps. 89:8). Because vaccines strengthen your immune system, it makes perfect sense that the Hebrew word for vaccine literally means “fortifier.” This is pretty straightforward, but wait, there’s more!
Discover a Wealth of Assurances
In the Hebrew Bible, the same word can mean “treasure” or “storehouse”. The prophet Isaiah assures us that God is our “rich store (chosen) of salvation and wisdom and knowledge” (Isa. 33:6). Only when you can read the Hebrew Bible in the original, can you really appreciate that the true vaccine for our soul is our faith in God – enroll in our live online Biblical Hebrew course today.

The Hebrew Bible contains more than two dozen names for God which many of us have heard before: YHWH (“Lord”), Elohim (“God”), Sabaoth (“armies”). One of the more obscure names for God used by Jews is Ha-Makom. This literally means “the place.” What does this signify? Is God a place? How did this rather ordinary word become one of God’s holiest names?
What can we learn from Jacob’s Dream?
One of the most famous stories in the Book of Genesis, is Jacob’s dream where angels ascend and descend a ladder to heaven. It begins with these words, “He came to a certain place and stopped there for the night, for the sun had set” (Gen. 28:11). In Hebrew, “place” is makom (מקום). Where is this place? It is strange that the Torah, which is usually full of geographical details, does not specify the location.
Place Transcending Space
According to an ancient Jewish interpretation of this verse, the makom which Jacob encountered is not a physical location, but God’s presence itself. The rabbis of the Talmud famously explained, “God is the place of the world, and the world is not His place.” In other words, God cannot be limited to one individual spot. Rather, God transcends space, and he is accessible to all people in all places.
Discover the depths of the Bible
To this day, it is common to hear Jews refer to God as Ha-Makom (“the place”) in prayer. This name captures God’s eternal vastness, while emphasizing his intimate imminence. We invite you to encounter the Spacious One, by entering the fascinating world of the Hebrew Bible in the original Hebrew.
