I originally posted the following photo and statement onto my Facebook wall…
Photo taken by my husband, on February 22 (my birthday), right before we entered the Dead Sea Scrolls Exhibit, within the Discovery Times at 42nd Street, Times Square, in New York City, New York
In an awesome moment of synchronicity, the two partially obscured words directly behind my shoulders, when converted from Late Semitic Script to modern Hebrew, read as follows:
“קודשו ושם” (from right to left)
or “w’shem kodsho”
This is translated as:
“and, [His] Set-Apart Name”
These words represent a portion of the following sentence:
“קודשו נקרא עליכם ושם”
or “w’shem kodsho niqra aleikhem”
Translation:
“And, His Set-Apart Name is invoked over you”
I find this intriguing because right after my husband completely surprised me with the news that we’d be attending the Dead Sea Scrolls exhibit for my birthday, on the morning of, all I could think about was how amazing it was that we were going to be seeing and reading the Set-Apart Name of our Creator, “יהוה” [HE IS] (as first revealed to Moshe at Mt. Horeb) from the actual original copy of one of the oldest known Hebrew manuscripts of the TaNaKh in existence, with our very own eyes! (Click Here to Continue Reading This Post)
