Substantial Evidence

This book is simply amazing. It is much more than a dictionary that reveals English has roots in Hebrew (or "Edenics" as the author likes to call it). But more importantly it reveals that other languages have potential roots in Hebrew. It provides actual words as evidence and gives details of roots and concepts. Linguists will undoubtedly hate this book because it dismisses half of their theories. After reading this book, you will begin to wonder and believe that all languages originated from one. Just like all people originated from one family. As time developed languages evolved and differentiated, but a careful inspection can potentially unmask their origin. This is what the author has done with English words originally believed to have etymologies of Latin. The author provides so much evidence (and those familiar with Hebrew can attest) that the reader must either provide alternative explanation or accept the theory. I have started to analyze some Farsi words and have already established the connection of countless words to Hebrew (Even words that are not believed to be of "Arabic" etymology). Scientists and linguists who have formed their ideology and must protect their theories will undoubtedly deny these points until a future time where more brave and advanced scientist all start to see how all languages must have originated from one language (that being Hebrew). Isaac Mozeson is a revolutionary and his theories will one day be accepted.

An Eye-Opening Dissertation on Language

This book is an excellent reference and fascinating explanation of where our words came from and why and how they have traveled from one language to another. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in the history of words and wants to appreciate their language better. In fact, I suppose this book really would interest most everybody.

Compelling

Very interesting ... look at the Edenics website for some good examples to whet your appetite. The origins of many words whose etymology is/was unknown is pretty convincing.

Excellent book!

Very good book! The author is more than adequately trained and familiar with his subject matter. No doubt, most critics with an agenda will strongly dislike this book. With a work like this, one cannot help but realize the accuracy of the Biblical record and the beginning of man and the language of man in the Garden of Eden.I am presently a student of the Hebrew language, and I would definitely recommend this book to any serious student or truth-seeking scholar.

The Word is a once in a lifetime find.

As I read the first page of The Word, I was thrilled to learn that someone had DISCOVERED the hypothesized Indo-European roots to our modern languages! Almost every language can trace some of its roots to this once dead, but now resurrected language, but in English, 95% of our language is demonstrably traceable directly or indirectly to Hebrew. Even some Amer-Indian words have more than coincidental resemblance to Hebrew. How could scholars have missed the connection? Could it possibly be antisemitism within the ranks of the 19th century German linguists, who introduced the science of etymology to the world? Isaac Mozeson is scholarly, yet entertaining as he traces language roots through the developing sciences of linguistics and etymology. And those who love Scripture and linguistics have a double treat in store.
