Greetings Neighbor
With all the things going on in these challenging times, I imagine we all need some good news, so wanted to share something I found positive at least and encouraging from God's reliable Word the Bible.
Found at Matthew 6:9-10, we pray the Lord's prayer, in part asking for "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven".. A question we might ask is, what benefits could be included with this request for the good conditions of heaven, to be here also on earth?
One assuring benefit is found at Isaiah 33:24 that says "And no resident will say I am sick"
As we know, When Jesus was here on earth, he gave us a glimpse of those benefits as seen at Matthew 9:35. He went to all the cities and villages teaching, preaching, and healing every sort of sickness and disease.
Imagine a world without sickness...such an encouraging thought indeed! ;)
We can see a view of the future here for this earth in Psalm 37:10,11
"Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; You will look at where they were, And they will not be there. But the meek shall possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace."
I hope these verses brought you some comfort as well. Thank you for your time. For more information and practical steps to protect yourself, please visit JW.org
Sincerely,

Ancient Language Study Field Notes
The language alphabet chart above in photo, is a work in progress noting the various languages. Please forgive my scribbles and/or if any errors... I welcome any corrections or suggestions and is part of the reason it is being placed here. The 14 languages reflected above in photo, are shown from Left to Right: Column 1: English 2: Paleo Phoenician 3: Moabitic 4: Hebrew Ostraca 5: 4th century B.C.E. Paleo Aramaic 6: Papyri Late Aramaic 7:Palmyrene Aramaic 8: Monument Nabatean Aramaic 9: Modern Hebrew 10: Proto Sinaitic 11: Paleo Hebrew 12: Arabic 13: Ethiopic 14: Coptic
The photo above is a portion of the Dead Sea Scrolls called Psalm 11Q, that shows God's Name "YHWH" highlighted in the red box. It is written in Paleo Hebrew, and is different from the more modern Hebrew script written all around it. This more modern form of Hebrew writing was adopted by the Hebrews after Babylonian exile and used today. This shows evidence that the Scribes who wrote God's own Name "YHWH" in the earlier Paleo Hebrew form, had great respect for this ancient style of script during the time of writing the Dead Sea Scrolls,
THANKS FOR THE VISIT!
