+ | ===A Different Interpretation=== | ||
+ | |||
+ | There are a few problems with the idea that ais means female. At least, there are problems if one wished to preserve the patriarchal narrative. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When eve becomes a mother in Gen 4, she said “//I have acquired ais from Yahweh// | ||
+ | |||
+ | Adam and Eve are said to have borne two sons. No daughters are mentioned. So why does Eve use the word ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | There are several more stunning instances: | ||
+ | * In Job 1:1, Job is introduced as an ais | ||
+ | * In Gen 6:9, Noah is introduced as an ais | ||
+ | |||
+ | Were these bible heroes actually women? | ||
+ | |||
+ | They may not have been the only ones. | ||
+ | Enoch is not called a man, but is only referred to within the ancestors of the ' | ||
+ | Likewise, Abraham is introduced within the ancestors of Shem without specifying a [[gender]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | These characters are explicitly stated as " | ||
+ | |||
+ | This gives a new light to the Genesis 6 account contrasting the sons of Elohim & Daughters of Adam. The humans in the story are //all// female. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Further, it was an ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Thus, ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Rather than a female gender indicator, ais sometimes seems to mean " | ||

+ | |||
+ | One final note; Jesus is also known as Isha. Was Jesus a woman? Jesus was certainly // | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Numbers 25:5 uses the two words back to back in the phrase 'ais anes', which obviosly indicates that the two words are not interchangeable. The context suggests that the phrase may mean "men and women" supporting the concept that gender is the differentiating factor between the two words. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Additional words also appear to mean person: | ||
+ | ^Transliteration ^Strongnumber ^ Instances ^Ostensible Meaning | | ||
+ | ^ais | 376|1839 | man| | ||
+ | ^aseh |802 | 657|woman | | ||
+ | ^anes| 582| 133| man| | ||
+ | ^adem| 120| ~700| man| | ||
+ | |||
+ | Strong number 802 is problematic in that it can not be easily reduced to a root word. Variant spellings include ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | There is some evidence of gender differentiation between the words, however, the ostensible meanings appear to be convoluted with little regard for spelling and original word choice, casting significant doubt onto the traditional gender interpretations. | ||
