        You wouldn’t be suggesting that all Jews are Israelis would you?

            Yep. That’s what I thought. You do not get to make all Jews responsible for Israel’s apartheid and genocide. You’re taking a break from Lemmy Shitpost.

            With enough alcohol you can at least pass out

            I hope you find your path. [Insert funny & witty meme that is somehow highly relevant to the OP] Oh shit, I actually found one:

            “*I* will give you rest maddafucka!” (Exodus 33:14)

            rest

            If you have to be awake, I hope you at least enjoy this thought:-D.

              Yeah, come on, we all know there’s no rest till Chronicles (1. Chr. 22:9, that is).

              After that, it’s another long haul till Matthew 11:28.

        I was just trying to make a joke about a different language that was also written with the Hebrew script. Turns out it sounds terrible.

          Oh vey, what a shonda…

          Real talk though, that’s honestly quite fascinating, isn’t it. Yiddish is a Germanic language while Hebrew is Semitic. Those are two entirely different language families, yet both languages use the same letters.

          Also, Finnish and Hungarian belong to a common family even though they read and sound entirely different and have little cultural and no geographic overlap.

      Weird. Then why can I read the inscription in this photo of a text composed 3500 years ago? I guess some time traveler learned this totally invented 19th century language and taught it to the people back then, and also came up with Arabic and some other languages that are pretty closely related.

      By the way, it says not to lie (although his hand is partly covering it).

      Doesn’t matter what language he spoke (probably biblical Hebrew), he was a descendant from a people referred to as Hebrews (see Exodus 2:1-10).
