It troubles my soul thAT AS I seek the truth of GOD's WORD there are so many shallow pools, and in stead of looking for deeper water many people have staid to slash in the puddles and tolk about asses. We are man ( and women) and all have flaws, but GOD does not!! I would start hear for those that are looking to know why GOD is pulling on your heart.

I own donkeys. Yes, I call them asses. I believe donkey originated out of the desire to sanctify the name. Either way, they're asses, some are good asses, some are bad asses. Thus the name ass is most accurate and comes with many lessons. May we all achieve the characteristics of that of a good ass. Be well.

Donkey is a male & ass is a female? Then you say, "if I say something off, it's the ass in me" ? Doesn't this confirm traditional Rabbinic prayer, "Blessed are you, Hashem our G-d, King of the Universe for not having made me a woman." :-) The liberals didn't think that was funny.

Nehemia Gordon is a deception from the word go. Karaite's by their very doctrine deny the sages 2nd to their use of "Midrashic" exegesis. By the same token, they deny Christian doctrine for the same reason. Yet here is this guy Gordon touring churches everywhere helping them find the "real Lord's Prayer".

this guy smells like last week's tuna!!!!

@mraw65 the Rabbis have no God given to add to the torah so keep your takanot and ma"aisim and all your vain man made laws and teachings. Pharisees

[mraw65]

@soufmpls You must be either a Hebrew xtian or a Messy , as they are the only two groups who try to pepper their responses with rabbinic terms to actually bolster their position. Gordon is a fraud, I have spoken to him in person and can attest to that. He is a really good fraud 'cause apparently, churches still cannot get enough of him. Reading his web page, he now sounds like he imagines himself to be some sort of xtian/karaite prophet as well. Karaite = apostatic jew

Where he got that a Donkey is a male Ass, from the word Chamowr in relation to 'Athown

I'll give you that all of this is a pretty big stretch, but his first principle is to check everything (verify) and his second principle is to understand context (clarify). Both Christian Clergy and Jewish Rabbi often assuming that those two principles will be ignored.

Ass: From the Old English assa, from probable hypocoristic form of Old Irish asan which entered the language through the Northumbrian dialect of O.E. Other Germanic tongues had no such word instead using forms similar to esol which does exist in O.E. The Celtic word comes from Latin asinus and before this, (cf. Greek onos. This word has a Semitic origin, probably Hebrew, ahton "she-ass" . )

In Luke 14:5 the Greek word for Ass is Onos

Nehemia is refering to that words etymology into English

FAIL! Ass and Donkey is the same. The Male is a Jack (ass) the Female is a Jenny(ass) . That should tell you guys something. This guy speaks nonesense from the second he opens his mouth.
