So, it is a connection but not one of the Sefira’s. I always heard it was a culmination of all 10. Interesting. Thank you!
Hi am Tracy. I have signed up for 4 of these courses from Gil. I have been on a journey for the last 4 years to search and know the truth. The brought me to 3 years of the Hebrew Scrolls academy and now to the Israel Institute of Biblical Languages. So really loved Crack the Hebrew Code as that expanded on what I learned in the other courses I have taken. So learning the grammatical root but also want to know the spiritual root. So, all of these courses are great and hope to keep learning.
After learning the standard Israel Biblical pronunciations, I find it hard at times with some words. Ashkenazi is very different from traditional Hebrew spoken in Israel. For instance, it is Yod instead of Yud. There is a difference when you use a Kamatz Katan verses a Kamatz Gadol. Typical Ashkenazi is that they just use the Kamatz Katan all the time. Also, there is a difference between the silent Sh’va and the moving Sh’va. So many times, I am hearing Gil just pronounce the letter. Like if it is a Shin with a Sh’va at the beginning of the word I was taught to pronounce it Sheh very quickly. But I am hearing it just as SH. So, a few differences. However, I do find it good to quickly practice the words. I think this would have been very hard for me still if I hadn’t been studying it.
