take the (john) part and and try to do this same thing with the yochanon thing and see what kind of responses you get.
Que?
do you also call paul (shaul) when he himself changed his name to a latin name? do you know his name in latin or what about luke which is a greek name?
Obviously not. I favour the case made by Dr Stephen Pidgeon of the Cepher Publishing Group that the name rendered in Greek as Paulos was derived from a Hebrew name/title: Pa’al, meaning ‘the worker’.
did you know that the name doesnt exist in hebrew?? sounds foolish enough???
Which name?
Regarding the Hebrew language in general, apart from it’s beauty and depth, it can also be of great help us when we are trying to understand the translated texts.
The strength of your reaction against the language of scripture might be something you should take look at in yourself.
