Would Oy vey! work in this instance?
After I stopped laughing, and cleaned up the tea on my desk, I Binged “Guns N Moses” and found many hats, shirts, etc you can buy.
Awesome!
Can anybody translate the Hebrew for the uninitiated?
EdisonCarter, I hope you won’t be disappointed, but the translation is simply the 1st 10 letters of the aleph-bet, or, in this context, the numbers 1 – 10, denoting the 10 commandments in this case. Classical Hebrew uses letters to express numbers; numerals were not adopted until the advent of Modern Hebrew.
trick question:
Which amendment is valid in Tel Aviv?
“Fit yourselves like men; go and fight…” I Samuel 4:9
“…posting them by families, with their swords, pears and bows….Remember the Lord who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons and daughters, your wives and your homes.” Nehemiah 4:13-15
“Defend the poor and fatherless…” Psalm 82:3 (with guns if necessary)
correction – “swords, spears and bows”
(forgot to preview as promised)
However, FL ‘sand pears’, while delicious and make great chutney, salads and pies, are hard as rocks and could serve as an effective lethal defensive and offensive weapon.
And Luke Luke 11:21: “When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace”
Dr. P: The letters on the tablets are the first ten letters of the Hebrew alphabet, representing, of course, ten commandments.
The emblem’s words are “Tzavah Haganah L’Yisrael,” or “Israel Defense Forces,” the symbol of the IDF.
mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa
I read which AMENDMENT not which COMMANDMENT as we talk much more about the Constitution than the Talmud.
I was going for both the 1st and 2nd, but if anyone can work in the obligatory 3rd amendment here that would be worth a laugh.
Sorry, translation is directed to Eidson Carter.
Dr. P., the amendment valid in Tel Aviv is actually from the Talmud: “If a man comes to kill you, kill him.” I grant that carrying out this injunction makes the Jewish people less sympathetic in a lot of eyes, especially on the left. I’m OK with it.
Stand Your Ground validated by the Talmud! That make the Talmud raaaaaciiiiist!
And for the, uh, “Johnnie-come-latelys” in the crowd: Luke 22:36.
That is so full of awesome; I want one!
I thought this was the Ninth: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house.
A lovely warning to the Arabs.
That’s the tenth. Thou shalt not lie is the ninth, I think.
Some regard Thou shalt not bear false witness as the Eighth; Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house as the Ninth; and Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, etc. as the Tenth.
Whatever the number, as long as we hold to it.
…or it contents! (Well, at least in Texas)
If you wore that on a t-shirt here, you’d probably get sued by Guns & Roses for copyright infringement.
…and cause every liberal to shriek uncontrollably!
Sounds worthwhile on it’s own.
Hey, a cardio workout is good for them, right? It’s for their own good!
Well, it makes sense – Charlton Heston was a prominent member of the NRA, after all 😀
Thou shalt be awesome.
With all due respect to the late Ronald Reagan, that would be the Eleventh Commandment: “Never Again.”
So say us all …?
Aye and Amen.
I think that commandment was on the stone tablet Mel Brooks dropped on his way back from Mt. Sinai.
There’s an article in today’s Jerusalem Post. Its says Turkey released the pigeon they thought was a Mossad spy. Because it had an identifier around one of its ankles, showing a Tel Aviv address.
So they took the pigeon to a hospital to X-Ray it. Alas, no devices. So the bird was set free to fly away.
He he the above confusion – A commandment amendment .
Why has no one thought of that? .
