Rabbi Submits Statement on Jewish
Bible in Scopes Case
Rabbi Herman Rosenwasser of San
Francisco, graduate of the Hebrew
Union College, prepared n statement on
the Hebrew Bible which was submitted
Dayton. Tenn. His statement was used
to show errors found in the translntiOns
of the various Bibles from the Hebrew
Rabbi RoSenwnsser's statement said in
part.
TO understand the Bible one must
know Hebrew.
I'm the translation Of the Hebrew
Bible. from which the King James Pro-
testant version is derived, there are
many errors, some Of them basic.
THE word create purports to be a
translation of 'bara.' This word bara
is used with reference to both inor-
ganic and organic creation, man as
well as animals and plants. The word
'bara' is used to represent the whole
cosmic scheme. The correct translation
is to set In notion
In verse two of the King James
version of the Protestant Bible appears
the following The spirit of God
moved upon the face of the waters
That is not correct translation OF
the Hebrew. A correct translation of
the Hebrew word 'marachefoth' is and
God animated impaired life, vivitied.'
The words the face of the waters are
'alpenai hamayin which mean to ami
mate the face of the fluid mass
In the Bible there are four distinct
terms for man: Adam, Enosh, Gever,
and Ish.
In the first chapter of Genesis the
word Adam is used. The word Adam
means living organism containing
blood. If we are descended from Adam,
we are descended from lower order
II living. purely physical organism con-
tanning blood. If that Is n lower order
of animal, then Genesis itself teaches
that man descended from n lower order
of animals.
THE terms 'Gever' and Ish' refer
TO the intellectual and spiritual man.
IF the Hebrew Bible were properly
translated and understood, one would
not find any conflict with the theory
Of evolution which would prevent him
from accepting both"
