HEBREW *
INTRODUCTION
It has been suggested by many Basque scholars, such as
Abbé Dominique Lahetjuzan, Abade Erroa and Abbé Diharce de Bidassouet, that
the words and names of the Hebrew language, and those used in the Bible, were
related to Basque. I found that he linguists who develop Hebrew used the
first letters of Saharan/Basque words starting with VCV in their
manipulations (see VCV Formula) However, they
also used words starting with CV, especially in the first syllable of the new
word. Hebrew is a consonantal language, just like Old Egyptian and Arabic,
which means that all vowels were removed from the word. To begin my research,
I chose the central pillar of Judaism, The Talmud, for examples because
this document had been passed on to posterity with extreme care:
Tal-mud
tala - mudapen
look out - alteration
"Look out for alteration" or "Pass on
unaltered"
This definition makes sense because the Talmud is the
summary of the Oral Law of the Jews and the only way to preserve an oral law
throughout the ages is to make sure that it is passed in unaltered condition.
It has the important advantage that the vowels were preserved in the
memorizing process. The Talmud has two main components: the Mishnah, a book of law (halakhah),
and the Gemarah,
which is the commentary on the Mishnah. The Torah is the Pentateuch or law
contained in the Old Testament. As the many words associated with these books
have been passed on quite faithfully in the original pronunciation, I decided
to make an effort to work with them first:
Gemara (to expand the
mind).ge-ema-ara
age-ema-ara
ageri - eman - aratz
revelation - to teach - pure
"Pure teachings of the Revelation"
Mishna (instruction)
mi-ix.-.na
umi-ixa-ana
umiltasun - ixartu - anaitegi
humbleness - to wake up - congregation
"In humbleness waking up the congregation"
Torah (teaching)
.to-ora-ah,
oto-ora-aha
otoitzegin - orain - Ahalguzti
to pray to - always - Almighty
"Always pray to the Almighty"
The vowel-interlocking of the VCV syllables is clearly
maintained in many of these words, proving that this linguistic trick was
already in common use around 600 B.C.

Conclusion
Almost every Hebrew word or name
appears to have a built-in hidden sentence in Basque, usually having a
bearing on the original meaning. Many words have been distorted over time and
can no longer be decoded with confidence, but the majority can be translated,
just as was done in the examples above. There is no doubt that the Hebrew
language was constructed by skilled linguists applying formulaic manipulation
to the Saharan/Basque vocabulary, which must have been the language of the
Hebrews as they came from Egypt ca 1,100 bce.. It is written in Genesis 11:7
"Let us confuse their language so they can no longer understand one
another's speech", this was taken as a biblical command and Hebrew was
the product of this "confusion". Genesis 11:9 then tells us that this
linguistic work was done in Babylon. Lahetjuzan and the other early Basque
scholars were right after all;
