Why strive to read G-d’s own holy language, the very words with which He “spoke” the world into existence, when you can read a Dark Ages translation of a translation (of a translation.)

How do you write SARC in Hebrew?

Brothers and sisters of the Most High, take the initiative and start to fulfill Zechariah 8:23. Find your local neighborhood orthodox Jew (look for the strings hanging off the corners of his shirt,) and ask him to teach you Torah. Enough passive waiting. We want Moshiach now.

“when you can read a Dark Ages translation of a translation (of a translation.)

Not true. You need to do a little checking up on the translation of the King James.

"Find your local neighborhood orthodox Jew (look for the strings hanging off the corners of his shirt,) and ask him to teach you Torah."

Many Orthodox rabbis, for good and understandable reasons, will avoid answering anyone who makes such a request. Some rabbis will agree to do so only if asked very nicely several times from a humble and unassuming perspective. Converting is a long, involved and very dedicated undertaking requiring often difficult life changes for anyone really wanting to do so.

Nehemia Gordon, the man in the video presentation referred to in the post above this thread, is a Karaite--very controversial from an Orthodox perspective (Karaites viewed as unorthodox/apostate).
