Prince of Egypt - Through Heaven's Eyes (Hebrew version)

[jahchild1904]

This is beautiful. I wish I knew Hebrew.

This video is out of sync with the words, though.

[miasolomia1997]

אוווווווווווווי

למה כולם חושבים שזה דומה לערבית ? !!!

[zheuhang]

To a foreign ear like me, Hebrew sounds very much like Arabic, I guess that's because they are all Semitic

[shaharmos]

@zheuhang

SEMITIC LANGUAGES :

HEBREW + ARABIC + BABYLONIAN + ASSIRYAN + ARAMIC

[TMSVioloncellist]

The loudest versions of the songs from this movie on YouTube are in hebrew.... how IRONIC.

[reddragoncel]

would you wish to teach me hebrew?

[Tara12151617]

I love this song! It's so ture! ^^ ❤'s The Prince Of Egypt.

[Rashieka90]

Even if I wasn't a huge fan of Hebrew (but as it is, I happen to be), this version would still be the best! It just sounds so honest and real.

[Raya9392]

I love this movie. best movie Ever. I adore Hebrew. I adore Moses. I am proud to be Jewish.

[RondoVenezianoHere]

"In Exodus we have an account of the manner in which Jehovah delivered the Jews from Egyptian bondage. We now know that the Jews were never enslaved by the Egyptians; that the entire story is a fiction. We know this because there is not found in Hebrew a word of Egyptian origin and there is not found in the language of the Egyptians a word of Hebrew origin. So we know that the Hebrews and Egyptians could not have lived together." - Robert Ingersoll

-

jews invented the story to steal land

[AtarahDerek]

I don't suppose you could include the translation of the lyrics? It would be interesting to see how they had to change the wording to keep the flow. That, and Hebrew is so much richer than English, so it's always fun to see how Hebrew songs compare to English songs.

[semiramie]

waaaaw what a beautiful version...:)))) the best of all.. .)

[earanemith]

i soooo love it. don't know why but i want to learn hebrew. it sounds i don't know familiar, and that is wird because i'm dutch

[Zephyrrix]

@earanemith, maybe you're thinking of the "ch" sound, correct me if i'm wrong, but dosn't the dutch language use the "ch" sound too, but with the "ze" or "je" letters instead right? :-)

[AtarahDerek]

@earanemith It could be because the Dutch are probably descended from the Hebrew tribe of Zebulun (this isn't a confirmed fact, but there is strong evidence for it).

[sexysweet87]

oh my GOD i love this movie this my part

right here i love it in hebrew (=

[meshi1990]

God's love is beyond a religion, a culture, or a language.

[MaskedMan66]

But don't forget; the religion He gave us was Judaism, a belief fulfilled by His Son; He did not give us Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam or anything else.

[2Cloud5]

That is beautiful.

Just knowing how our God love us so, gives my heart this very happy feeling. I don't know how to explain it. :3

[AtarahDerek]

@meshi1990 Aaaaaaamen!  Praise Him for that, huh?

[shaxincat]

[bluedragongirl101]

im christan i think im 9% catholic cause my dads catholic

[Kitsune44X]

Catholicism and Christianity are one and the same, with Catholicism being one particular interpretation (called a "denomination") of Christianity. What people often mislabel as "Christian," when comparing Catholics and "Christians," would be Protestantism, any one of the many different denominations of Christianity which do not agree with Catholic beliefs regarding the Pope or prayers to the Saints. Aside from this, there are few serious theological differences between Catholics and Protestants.

[AtarahDerek]

@bluedragongirl101 It's not an ethnicity. My dad was Catholic for a while, but I don't have Catholicism in my blood. Catholicism is one of two major denominations within Christianity. In some countries, it's considered separate from Christianity. You can be a Catholic pagan, a Catholic Christian, or a run-of-the-mill (Protestant) Christian. This is common in Latin America, particularly Mexico.

[BiPika]

All the songs of this movie sound so good in Hebrew.

Really, thanks for uploading! I'd like to see the complete movie in Hebrew (with subtitles). It sounds really lovely ^__^

[Lightsparks2]

this is such a good movie i love it even in hebrew. The music in the movie are the best! :)

[reddragoncel]

its not fake

[Elirael]

Does anyboday now how to get the lyrics in latin letters?

[xXTime2BurnXx]

I LOVE this movie. Greatness! 5/5

[T609]

native language? wouldn't they be speaking egyptian? :s i don't know, still love it. Thanks.

[diamondinchrist]

Jethro was a midianite, they spoke hebrew not egyptian.

[kawaienvy123]

Madianites did not speak hebrew ,

they spoke arabic!

[yaoitenshi]

Actually the language they spoke can't be certain because their territory extended quite far north to Palestine,which suggests Arabic parts of their language. But they had intimate relations with Israelites and they appeared to have understood each other reasonably well. However at that time Israelites spoke Aramean so the midian language, whilst not known, could possibly have been a dialect of Aramean with notes of Arabic. The land of Midian by R.Burton is more expansive on this. ^^

[daemonnoir]

~ Dude, there's no way to know what they spoke unless you use a time machine. It sounds nice anyway. Aramaic was the language of Jesus, a small dialect from the place where he grew up. Anyway, the texts of Moses were written in Hebrew, so this language adds a bit of authenticity, even if they may not have spoken like this. Enjoy the video people, especially the meaning of the song!

[AtarahDerek]

@yaoitenshi Midian was a large tribe that lived in smaller nomadic groups. Most were hostile and lived to the east and north of Canaan. But this particular group lived south of Canaan, in what is today Saudi Arabia. They spoke Hebrew (Phoenitic Chaldean), because they were Hebrews, being descendants of Abraham, the great-great-great grandson of Eber the Chaldean. Arabic and Aramaic weren't developed as languages for several more centuries, and the Edomites probably spoke them first.

[richardsonl91]

Arabic was still a language used farther north and east, they either spoke Aramaic, Hebrew, or Middian

[wassap666]

its a movie for god sake none of the people in this story didnt speak hebrew even not the hebrews :S nor english and btw u cant really know what lanugage they spoke...

[AtarahDerek]

@wassap666 If you can't know what language they spoke, how can you be so sure they didn't speak Hebrew?

[kidi1232]

im not sure if they spoke arabic. for sure they didnt spoke hebrew. but this is the dubbed movie - they also didnt spoke english or Japanese - even though they dubbed those versions too.

[MorganBatChava]

I love Jethro in this movie. Everytime I read the Torah now, I think of Jethro like this, lol.

[zzzAnsku95zzz]

Good version :)

[xKenny12x]

I'm living in Israel, this song is so beautiful! at the Hebrew version and at the English version

[eliavlevy]

I keep on watching this movie, has such a strong meaning.

[Carlosh82]

beautiful I love this song I sing it with my nephews everytime we see this movie!!!!

[ditte3]

Beautiful.

[0florine0]

beautiful!!!

[pedrocoutinho4]

nice even though I don't understand it... but i think the guy that sings the english version has a more outstanding voice!

[MaskedMan66]

Small wonder; he's a major Broadway star.

[miriamL9301]

[wainblatrobert]

[revaya15]

[wainblatrobert]

[BlainEnoch]

"Every little thread in the tapestry even if its colour is spectacular

Does not conceive the wholeness of the threads around

And the rock that sits above the top of the hill

Reckons itself the most important and the base redundant

So how shall you judge your worth?

Perhaps it's twice as great

It's impossible to see in the eyes of others

Look at your life through heaven's eyes

A lake of gold in mid-desert is less than water from a well

[BlainEnoch]

"To a wandering lamb a young shepherd is more than a mighty king

Did a man who has lost everything also relinquish his honour

And maybe it's a beginning towards a brighter future"

[BlainEnoch]

Oh, I just realised that the author's transcription continues...

"So how shall a man's worth be calculated? In happiness? Power? Age?

How much he has watched? How much he has bred?

An answer will be given to he who sees his life twice

Through his own and heaven's eyes

Therefore we shall share everything with you in scarcity and in abundance

Because what lies before you belongs to Mother Nature

Life can change when the winds blow

And sometimes you might stumble...

[BlainEnoch]

(Tzippora kicks Moshe's ass into the dancers circle)

"So how shall a man's value be measured?

Whether he worked or studied?

Nothing is seen through eyes of flesh and blood

But there's another pair of eyes

Look at life please look at them

Through heaven's eyes!"

[98nfsmw98]

cool vid, i'm learning hebrew,well i just started yesterday... i'm finding it pretty hard with the courses on the internet...

[BlueButterflyLiZ]

waaa this song is so happy,i can't read the lyrics, but i love it ^^

[Shirsht]

מי מדובב את יתרו? הוא שר מעולה!

[dryadwrangler]

I can read the hebrew, and not understand it, and very slowly.

I only learned for prayers, but I am not at all religious, so I suck at reading the hebrew. ;)

[KingOystar]

Id love to be able to speak fluent Hebrew.

[chilladog]

man, wish i could read your lyrics, but I can't :-(

[IsraelForEver]

If you want, I can teach you Hebrew (for free of'course ;-)

[chilladog]

That'd be great and nice but hard, through the internet and because of the gap it is too hard I suppose :-(

[Unforgivendecay]

Could you teach me? Its more to honor my mom who passed away but she was Israeli and used to talk to me in Hebrew when I was little.

Ari

[revaya15]

אני כל כך מצטערת על אובדנך = I'm so sorry of your loss.

[TeumimGroup]

@IsraelForEver will you teach me hewbrew for free? I'm serious!! You can contact me from LinkedIn or Facebook - Avigail Teumim

I desperately need to learn more, my kids only get a little bit at school and I cant hold a conversation. . . it's a disgrace :)

[darthgrahf]

@IsraelForEver I'm half Israeli on my mom's side and while I understand Hebrew very well, I'm not too confident when I speak. I grew up in the US after all. I can read Hebrew but not without the pronunciations.

[IsraelForEver]

Hebrew, for sure - after all it's an Hebrew version

[007deadbeat]

I think this is my favorite version. Thank you!!

[IsraelForEver]

You're welcome!

[twinklex21]

i love the music, i love the songs, i love the lyrics (well, i don't understand the hebrew lyrics, but i've heard other versions, i've understand) and i just LOVE this song! and hebrew is probably my favorite version.

[IsraelForEver]

Thanks!

If you want I can teach you Hebrew, but only from July - I'm a little busy right now...

[twinklex21]

Really?! :D I would love it! :D

[raphaellover]

it doesn't sound clear at all. Its alright. But I like it way better in English.

[EuphrasieF]

Can you transcribe the lyrics?

[IsraelForEver]

There is some problem with the lyrics of this song (it's not fit to the command's lengtth).

Therefore - I published it inside the video's description. Have fun :-)

[xmenlover93]

love it love it love it!! thanks. i've never pictured this song in Hebrew. the song is beautiful especially in Hebrew! :) :)

[IsraelForEver]

You're welcome! :D

[xmenlover93]

:) but thank you really for posting this song. i really like it in Hebrew :)
