MICAH 5:2 Complete Jewish Bible

Micah 5:1... Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

But you, Beit-Lechem near Efrat,so small among the clans of Y’hudah,out of you will come forth to me the future ruler of Isra’el,whose origins are far in the past, back in ancient times.

Neither is there SALVATION in any other; for there is NO OTHER NAME+ under Heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Acts 4:12

That at the NAME of YESHUA+ every knee shall bow, of beings in Heaven, beings in earth, and beings under the earth; and that every tongue should proclaim that YESHUA+ MASHIYACH+ is LORD, to the Glory of ALAHA, His+ FATHER.
Philippians 2:10-11

The BIRTHING of a NATION ... from Acts 2:24

... According to the Aramaic TEXT of Acts 2:24

Acts 2:24 in the Peshitta Text

The Aramaic Text of Acts 2:24 can be translated, with impunity, like the "Golden, Best, and Historic" version, published by the Netzarim Publishing House, did it: 

"But ALAHA ( according to the Aramaic text above) loosed the cords of Sheol  and raised HIM+ because it was not possible that HE+ be held in Sheol."

Others, no doubt, also have translated that highlighted word in the Aramaic Text, CHeBeL, as "cords."

CHaBaL, CHeBel, CH-B-L,  however printed, with or without vowel pointings, has 4 roots and 10 entries in the etymological dictionary, according to its learned author, the linguist, Rabbi Dr.  Ernest Klein. [ See full references at the bottom].

These four roots carry the definitions of CH-B-L as:

  • To act corruptly, ruin, destroy >>> destroyer, woes
  • To pledge ... may derive from root #4
  • To writhe, travail >>> pain, pangs, throes of birth
  • To bind >>> cord, rope, rigging, cables
Interestingly enough, it seems that only the vowel pointing is the only indiction of WHICH meaning CH-B-L might have in any given sentence. As a matter of fact, the G, B, and H Netzarim version of the New Covenant has CH-B-L pointed like this: 


hyl,bj,


ALSO of interest is Mrs. Janet Magiera's footnote #4 at Acts 2:24 in her Aramaic Peshitta New Testatment Translation. She has studied Aramaic for over 30 years. Her comment on CH-B-L : 

"Cords is homonym with "birth pangs" in Aramaic."

Now, Merriam-Webster's 7th Collegiate defines homonyms as  "one or two or more words spelled and pronounced alike but different in meaning , such as pool of water and the game of pool.
