Hello sparrowhawke, or חפציאל. I'll be glad to help your friend to choose a name. Maybe it's will take more than short conversation because if she want an existing name in the Bible and judism there are hundreds and hundreds of names. But I can do it for free. Please add me in Skype. My Skype is the same as my nickname here: pumba2. About a regular lesson, I take 7 $ for hour. Jonathan
 
To me, it sounds like this phrase shows that we are not in control of things (God is)

Is there a difference between yiddish and Hebrew? I have no clue
you right that this is not an exact translations of coincidense, but this is the closer I know. telling the true, up to now my aramic is not so good and I understand it more by the hebrew context. yiddish and hebrew are absultuely differtent languages. yiddish is very similar to german but only written in hebrew letters and has few loand words from hebrew ( only biblical concepts that existing only in the hebrew language).
 
That is extremely fascinating to me.
As a side note, the Apostle Paul, was also from the tribe of Benjamin, to which he takes great pride. Also, his name was also Saul.

Can I back up a minute? Is Yosef Joseph, Benjamin's brother? If so, then isn't ben Yosef translated as " son of Joseph"? If I've got this right, then would this be speaking of Ephriam and Manessa?

Can you help me better understand?
yes it's spoken about efraim and menashe. but the messiah will come from efraim. as it is written in jeremiah 31 9:
הֲבֵן֩ יַקִּ֨יר לִ֜י אֶפְרַ֗יִם אִ֚ם יֶ֣לֶד שַׁעֲשֻׁעִ֔ים כִּֽי־מִדֵּ֤י דַבְּרִי֙ בּ֔וֹ זָכֹ֥ר אֶזְכְּרֶ֖נּוּ ע֑וֹד עַל־כֵּ֗ן הָמ֤וּ מֵעַי֙ ל֔וֹ רַחֵ֥ם אֲֽרַחֲמֶ֖נּוּ נְאֻם־יְהוָֽה:
"They will come with weeping; they will pray as I bring them back. I will lead them beside streams of water on a level path where they will not stumble, because I am Israel's father, and Ephraim is my firstborn son. " (the word "first born" is not existing in the orignial hebrew verse)
 
I will let PUMB2 answer this, but just wanted to add to what I looked up today.

Moshiach ben Yosef in Jewish eschatology , Mashiach ben Yoseph or Messiah ben Joseph, also known as Mashiach bar/ben Ephraim, is a Jewish messiah from the tribe of Ephraim and a descendent of Joseph.

chabad.org What is the Jewish Belief About Moshiach (Messiah)

The Rabbis believe in two Moshiach (Messiah), one exalted and one suffering. It's not two Messiahs, but one Messiah, first time suffering, the second time exalted.

The word Moshiach in English means a savior or a hoped for deliverer. The word Moshiach in Hebrew means "anointed". In Biblical Hebrew the title Moshiach was bestowed on somebody who had attained a position of nobility and greatness.

For example, the high priest is referred to as the kohen ha-moshiach.

In Talmudic literature the title Moshiach, or Melech HaMoshiach (the king Messiah) is reserved for Jewish leader who will redeem Israel in the end of days.

One of the principles of Jewish faith enumerated by Maimonides is that one day there will arise a dynamic Jewish leader, a direct descendant of the Davidic dynasty, who will rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem and gather Jews from all over the world and bring them back to the land of Israel.

All the nations of the world will recognize Moshiach to be a world leader and will accept his dominion. In the messianic era there will be world peace, no more wars nor famine, and in general a high standard of living.

All mankind will worship G-d and live a more spiritual and moral way of life. The Jewish nation will be preoccupied with learning Torah and fathoming its secrets.

The coming of Moshiach will complete G-d's purpose in creation for man to make an abode for G-d in the lower worlds, that is to reveal the inherent spirituality in the material world.

In Christianity we believe Messiah (Jesus) has already come as Isaiah prophecied in Isaiah 9:6, 7 and fulfilled in the writings of Luke in Luke Chapter 1.

Jesus came to teach us of God's mercy and grace as He calls the unrighteous to repent, Luke 5:32. Jesus suffered and died as Isaiah also prophecied in Isaiah 53:1-9. He paid our debt for sin by laying down His own life that we can have eternal life with the Father, John 10:167, 18; John 3:16. On the third day God raised Him from the dead, Acts 13:29- as now He sits at the right hand of God, Romans 8:34, until He returns on the last day as He will be exalted by all that are His own, Isaiah 40:3-5, Revelation 1:5-8.
hello to you. I like your answere but you have some sevre mistakes. first of all, in hebrew there is different between the word "mosshia" and the words "masshiah". this first one is really a savior. also god can be mosshia. but messiah is anointed. he has reacived that name because the juiesh bealive that the messiah will be a reggular person, with bilogical father and mother, who has chosen by the god (according the rambam god will say it by a prophet) or by the popultion (by other opinions) to be the king. according the allacha for announce the someone is a king the prophet is putting oil around is head.

your second mistake is that judism bealive that in the messiah's time all the world will eccept gently is domination. this is a mistake becuase as it's written Yalkut_Shimoni_on_Nach 5682 4 " 'אומרים לו למשיח מדינה פלונית מרדה בך', והוא אומר 'יבוא הגובאי (מין ארבה) ויחריב אותה!'... 'אפרכיא פלונית מרדה בך', והוא אומר 'יבוא מלאך המוות ויחריב ויחבל אותה'...
in free translation "people say to the messiah: this country has rebel against you, and he say: will come the locust and destory it. this land has rebeld agaisnt you. and he says: will come the death and kill it.

this is mean that also in the messiah time some nations will not like his kingdom but they will have nothing to do.

third, the idea that the messiah will sit in the right hand of god has not come from sits Romans 8:34 but from teilim 110 1
נְאֻם יְהוָה׀ לַאדֹנִי שֵׁב לִימִינִי עַד־אָשִׁית אֹיְבֶיךָ הֲדֹם לְרַגְלֶיךָ:
(תהלים פרק קי פסוק א)

Thank you! I will need to look closer into this.
I know verse 31 point to the new covenant which will hapoen when the Messiah comes.

In Christianity, we see this happening at Passover with Jesus.

Mathew 26:28
Aramaic Bible in Plain English
This is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed in exchange for the many for the release of sins.

yes but new convenant doean't mean to change the torah but just to interpetate it's words differently. for example if it's written בראשית ברא אלוהים את השמיים ואת הארץ
(usually translated as "in the biegging god created the sky and the earth") we can read it also as בראשית ברא אלוהים, את השמיים ואת הארץ. The head has created god, the sky and the earth (בראשית is similar to the word ראש which mean head. and בראשית means using the head). so you see that by adding only one comma we change the whole meaning.

Hello. my name is jonathan and I teach throigh skype aramaic

Sorry about the late report but my friend bailed out on me, meaning she did a "no-show" and only thought to call me after I had texted her a, "Hey! Where are you?" message. Well, we have not seen each other for many years so that is almost understandable.

Other ways to say the same or similar thing in English may include:
"She ditched me." <--- This comes from a children's game where we used to play hide and seek. Kids would often hide in 'ditches' or ravines and/or a gully or gullies.

Thesaurus reference for the word "HIDE" or "hid" (different verb tense) includes:
Conceal, shroud, curtain, veil, camouflage, cover, mask, cloak, screen, suppress, withhold, shield, secrete, horde, closet, obscure, disguise. (fn 1).

This reminds me of a story that you may be familiar with. It is the story of two (2) brothers and like many such, this involves conflict.

Hello everyone. I just want to make you know that in midrash ruth raba ( a legend about the biblical book of ruth but not only) it's said that in the future all the people of israel will back to the desert to get the new bible by the messiah. according to what I think today, they will not return to their homes which located in the state of israel today. maybe (this is only a hypothesis) they will live from that time in succut as all the oher nations will celebrate the fest of succut as the prophet Zechariah as said.

Revelation 7:1-8 speaks of the tribes of Israel that will return before the second coming of Christ.

John is given another vision after these things, meaning after the first six seals that are revealed to him. He now sees four angels standing on the four corners of the earth holding the four winds of the earth in order that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree until Gods servants were sealed.

These servants are the generational 144,000 from the twelve tribes of Israel, except for the tribe of Dan and Ephraim as they fell to idol worship and allowed God to be removed from them, Judges 18:30; 1 Kings12:25-33; Hosea 5:9, 11;Psalms 78:9-17, 65-67. To keep it twelve tribes since Dan and Ephraim are not mentioned in vs. 4-8 the tribe of Joseph appears twice, once under his own name and once under the name of his son Issachar/Manasseh. Judah is mentioned first as Messiah was to come from the lineage of David.

When studying the history of the twelve tribes of Israel being the sons of Jacob/Israel we find from 1047 B.C. and 931 B.C. the twelve tribes were under the leadership of three Kings, Saul, David and Solomon. Near the end of Solomon's reign he fell into idolatry and God spoke of tearing apart the Kingdom as judgment for these sins, 1 Kings 11:10-12.

After Solomon's death his son Rehoboam became King and those ten Northern tribes (Israel/Ephraim) rebelled against King Rehoboam and followed after Jeroboam up North causing a division of the north and south Kingdom. Only the tribe of Judah (Judah) and the tribe of Benjamin (Judah) stayed Loyal to King Rehoboam in the southern Kingdom for they kept Gods commandments as they knew David was the lineage of the promised Messiah as it was prophesied of the prophets of God. For almost two centuries the two Kingdoms where divided, but a remnant of the ten tribes soon came back to Judah after following Jeroboam as he turned the northern Kingdom into idol worshippers.

This is the importance of the 144,000 of the house of Israel and their generations unto the end of days. There were those of the old covenant that were faithful to God in keeping all his commandments and repented of their idol worshiping. Their generations who have also come back to Gods grace that are still alive during the seven trumpet sounds will continue to preach to the Jews as it was with the twelve disciples in Matthew 10:6. The generations of the 144,000 that are still alive have the seal of God on them which are the seven Spirits of God as they will have to endure much persecution until the end of days before the return of Jesus.

(Seven Spirits of God are found in Isaiah 11:2 and mentioned in Rev 1:4 being Spirit of the Lord, wisdom, understanding, counsel, power, knowledge and fear/respect of the Lord.)
