I’m thrilled to announce that our Hebrew-and-English Reconstruction of The Gospel according to the Hebrews is complete—and the hardback is now available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FM3964X5. A Paperback edition https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FM3GG163

This volume gathers the scattered ancient quotations and testimonies about this early Jewish Gospel and presents a careful reconstruction in Hebrew with a facing English translation. It’s a key milestone in restoring the earliest, Jewish voice of the Good News.

What’s next: restoring the original Hebrew and Aramaic of the Four Gospels

With this book out, I’m already deep into the next step: a restoration of the original Hebrew and Aramaic of the Four Gospels—produced in Jewish Western Aramaic and Hebrew, with a literal English translation.

Why this approach?

• The Old Syriac Gospels (Sinaitic & Curetonian) preserve a stream of the Gospel tradition that reflects Jewish Western Aramaic idiom and thought—often earlier and more Semitic than later church-standardized forms. They’re not mere “translations of Greek,” but revisions of an older, Jewish Aramaic Gospel tradition that still peeks through in wording, syntax, and idioms.
• By contrast, the Peshitta—though precious—is a later revision of that Old Syriac tradition, realigned toward the Greek Byzantine text-type and smoothed to fit post-Nicene theology and idiom. This is why it often reads “cleaner” but less Semitic.
• The larger picture that emerges is a Semitic textual history: Hebrew originals → early Jewish Western Aramaic → Old Syriac → Western-type Greek (the rough, Semitic-sounding Greek) → Alexandrian/Byzantine Greek; and the Peshitta reflects a revision toward Byzantine Greek.
• Practically, this means my restoration will collate the Old Syriac readings with early Peshitta witnesses (e.g., Codex Phillipps 1388), identifying where Semitic forms survived before later harmonization—and then render those in Jewish Western Aramaic and Hebrew with a literal English translation.
• Why not just stick to Greek? Because time and again we see that the most awkward, “un-Greek” features in early witnesses are exactly what we expect from literal renderings of Semitic originals—a signpost pointing back to the Hebrew/Aramaic substrate.

Put simply: this project aims to let the earliest Jewish voice of the Gospels speak again—in the languages in which Yeshua and His first disciples taught, with a transparent English that doesn’t hide the Semitic texture. The Old Syriac especially “opens a window into the authentic linguistic and cultural world” of the earliest Gospel strata and “preserves the voice of Jewish disciples before [later] Hellenistic” smoothing.

Why this matters

Our research continues to confirm the core thesis: the New Testament books were originally composed in Hebrew and Aramaic, and the Greek we know is, in many places, a translation or paraphrase of that Semitic base.

Recovering the Semitic shape of the Gospels clarifies difficult passages, restores idioms, and re-centers the narrative in its Jewish linguistic and cultural home. This isn’t just academic; it helps all of us hear Yeshua and His emissaries as their first hearers did.

How you can help (urgent)

We’re in a really tough spot right now. Yesterday we ended the day $100 in the negative, and as of today we are $398 pending in the negative. We have funds coming from GoFundMe, but they take a couple of days and won’t land until tomorrow or Thursday. If you can help with any part of this gap, it would be a lifeline.

As I’ve said many times, I look on this work as co-operative—you and me, combining our resources so we can get this truth out to all who will listen. Thank you for your prayers and your faithful support; you truly make this possible.

If you’re able, a one-time gift of $500 or $1,000 right now would stabilize things so I can keep the restoration work moving without interruption.

In the book of Hebrews, we read:

בהימנותא גיר מסתכלינן דאתתקנו עלמא במלתא דאלהא והלין דמתחזין הוי מן אילין דלא מתחזין
“For by faith we understand that the world (universe) was established by the Word of Elohim, and those things that are visible came into being from those things that are not visible.”
— Hebrews 11:3 (Aramaic Peshitta)

This passage underscores a profound theological truth: the universe was established by the Word of Elohim, and that which is visible came from the invisible. It brings to mind the idea that the unseen forces are more fundamental than the material world. But what could these “invisible” forces be? In the context of modern science, this invisible realm aligns remarkably well with the concept of quantum fields.

We also find a similar idea in Romans 1:20:

כסיתה גיר דאלהא מן ארמיתה דעלמא לבריתה בסוכלא מתחזין וחילה ואלהותה דלעלם
“For the hidden things of Elohim, from the foundations of the world (universe), by His creation, in His wisdom, were made visible, and His power and Godhead, which is eternal…”
— Romans 1:20 (Aramaic Peshitta)

The “foundations of the universe” which are “not visible,” from which the visible universe came into being, are the Quantum Fields. This passage, though written centuries ago, hints at an invisible reality behind the visible world, much like how quantum mechanics reveals an unseen world that governs the material universe.

What is Quantum Field Theory? (A Brief Overview for the Layman)

Quantum Field Theory (QFT) is the modern framework for understanding the universe at its most fundamental level. According to QFT, every particle is a vibration of a field that permeates all of space. Just as sound waves are vibrations in the air, particles like electrons and photons are excitations in their respective quantum fields.

Imagine a calm, invisible sea (the quantum field), where particles are like waves or ripples that appear and disappear, traveling through this sea. These quantum fields are the fundamental building blocks of everything in existence, and the behavior of these fields determines the physical properties of particles and forces.

In short, QFT replaces the concept of particles as discrete objects and instead views them as fluctuations in a continuous field. This theory is foundational to understanding modern physics and is a major part of the Standard Model of particle physics.

Wisdom from the Ancients

The Wisdom of Solomon, though ancient, presents a strikingly modern perspective on creation:

דמן רבותא דשפרה אתבריו הנא דברא אנון מתחזא גליאית
“From the greatness of beauty, it was created, behold, it visibly reveals Him.”
— Wisdom of Solomon 13:5 (Peshitta Aramaic)

This passage suggests that creation, stemming from divine beauty, is not just a physical phenomenon but reveals the Creator. The beauty and harmony of the universe, as perceived through nature, are a reflection of divine order and presence. In the context of our discussion, this could be understood as the visible manifestation of the “Logos” (Word), or the quantum fields that underlie all creation.

The Logos as a Field

The concept of the “Logos” (Greek for “Word”) has been an essential part of Christian and Jewish thought for millennia. The “Logos” is described as the Divine Word, which was instrumental in creation. In Kabbalistic thought, the Logos aligns with the concept of the “Memra” (the Aramaic word for Word) which, according to Gershom Scholem, has significant theological implications:

“The Memra – the paraphrase used in the Targumim, the Aramaic Bible translations, to refer to God’s word. The Memra is not merely a linguistic device for overcoming the problem of biblical anthropomorphisms; it has theological significance in its own right. The Memra is a world-permeating force, a reality in the world of matter or mind, the immanent aspect of Elohim, holding all things under its omnipresent sway.”
— Gershom Scholem, On the Mystical Shape of the Godhead: Basic Concepts in the Kabbalah (p. 181-182)

This “Memra” is analogous to the Logos, the Word, which is described as a pervasive, immanent force that sustains and permeates all creation. The Logos is not just a concept but an active force in the world, a reality that governs both the material and immaterial.

J. Abelson, in his work The Immanence of God in Rabbinic Literature, writes:

“The Memra has, to the minds of the Targumic authors, some real theological connotation… it connotes the manifestation on earth and among men of several aspects of Divine power, goodness, wisdom and justice. The ‘Word’ is a world-permeating force, a reality in the world of matter or mind, the immanent aspect of God holding all things under its omnipresent sway.”
— J. Abelson, The Immanence of God in Rabbinic Literature (p. 159, 1912)

This resonates deeply with the concept of quantum fields. Just as the quantum fields are pervasive and govern the behavior of particles, the Memra (or Logos) is an underlying force that shapes reality.

Phase Transitions and Coherent Phases: A Connection to the Ancient Elements

In modern physics, quantum fields undergo phase transitions — changes between different states of coherence and energy levels. These transitions are analogous to the classical states of matter, such as from liquid to gas, or from a disordered state to an ordered state (like superconductivity or superfluidity). The system moves through different phases of coherence, which can influence the properties and interactions of the particles involved.

Interestingly, the ancient concept of the four elements — earth, air, fire, and water — can be seen as analogous to these states of matter. The ancient philosophers might not have had a modern understanding of quantum fields, but they intuitively recognized that the world is made up of different “states” that interact with each other.

The Zohar, a key text in Kabbalistic tradition, teaches that the three pillars of the Godhead are analogous to three of the “elements” of the ancients:

יחוד דכל יומא. איהו יחוד למנדע ולשואה רעותא.
יחודא דא. הא אמרן בכמה דוכתי יחיד דכל מא איהו יחוד דקרא. שמע ישראל יי קדמאח. אלהינו יי. הא כלהו חד. ועד אקרי אחד.
הא תלת שמהין אינון. היך אינון חד ואף על גב דקרינן אחד. היך אינון חד. אלא בחזיונא דרוח קודשא אתיידע. ואינון בחיזו דעינא סתימא. למנדע דתלתא אלין אחד.
ודא איהו רזא דקול דאשתמע. קול איהו חד.ואיהו תלתא גוונין. אשא ורוחא ומיא. וכלהו חד ברזא דקול.
ואף הכא יי אלהינו יי אינון חד תלתא גוונין דאינון חד. ודא איהו קול דעביד בר נש ביחודא ולשוואה רעותיה בחודא דכלא מאין סוף עד סופא דכלא. בהאי קול דקא עביד בהני תלתא דאינון חד.
ודא איהו יחודא דכל יומא דאתגלי ברזא דרוח קודשא.
וכמה גוונין דיחודא אתערו וכלהו קשוט. מאן דעביד האי עביד ומן דעביד האי עביד

The [profession of] unity that every day is [a profession of] unity
is to be understood and to be perceived. We have said in many places
that this prayer is a profession of Unity that is proclaimed:

”Hear O Yisrael, YHWH“ first, [then] “Eloheynu” [and] “YHWH” they are all One and thus He is called “One”.

Behold, these are three names, how can they be one? Is it because we call them one? (literally: And also concerning the proclamation that we call them one?). How these are one can only through the vision of the Holy Sprit be known. And these are through the vision of the closed eye (or the hidden eye) To make known that these three are one.
And this is the mystery of the voice that is heard. The voice is one. And is three GAUNIN: fire and air and water. And all these are one in the mystery of the voice.

And also here “YHWH, Eloheynu, YHWH” these are One. Three GAUNIN that are One. And this is the voice of the act of a son of man in [proclaiming] the Unity.
And to which he sees by the Unity of the “All” from Eyn Sof (the Inifinite One) to the end of the “All”. Because of the voice in which it is done, in these are three that are one.

And this is the [profession] of the daily profession of Unity that is revealed in the mystery of the Holy Spirit.

And there are many GAUNIN that are a Unity, and all of them are true, what the one does, that the other does, and what that one does, the other does.
(Zohar 2:43)

In this passage, the Zohar teaches that the three pillars of the Godhead, though distinct in nature, are united in essence. They are akin to three fundamental forces or “elements” — manifesting as different aspects of the divine. This mirrors the modern understanding of quantum fields and their different phases or states, each representing a different expression of the same underlying reality.

The Zohar’s mention of the three pillars also echoes the concepts found in the Sefer Yetzirah, where three “mothers” (Aleph, Mem, and Shin) correspond to the elements of the universe: air, water, and fire.

שלש אמות אמש יסודן כף זכות וכף חובה ולשון חף מכריע ביתים
Three “mothers”: Alef; Mem and Shin
Their foundation is a pan of merit
a pan of liability
and the tongue of decree deciding between them.
— Sefer Yetzirah 3:1

שלש אמות אמש בעולם אויר מים אש שמים
Three “mothers”, Alef, Mem, Shin
in the universe are air, water, fire…
— Sefer Yetzirah 3:4a

Here, we see a direct connection between the ancient elements and the phases or states of matter. The three pillars of the Godhead can be understood as resonating in a similar manner, with the Ten Sefirot representing various facets of divine manifestation. The Sefirot, like quantum fields, undergo transitions and resonate at different frequencies or phases, shaping the fabric of reality itself.

Our Path to Resonating with the Logos

Just as quantum fields experience transitions and states of coherence, our journey as spiritual beings is to resonate with these divine “field” resonances. By aligning ourselves with the Logos, we tune our souls to the divine frequencies that permeate creation. This is the essence of spiritual work: to attune our inner beings to the cosmic rhythms of the universe and align ourselves with the Logos.

A New Course: Unlocking the Mysteries of God, the Universe, and the Inner Self

With this in mind, I am excited to announce that I will be teaching a series of classes on Kabbalah and the Zohar. These classes will explore the deep connections between quantum field theory, the ancient wisdom of the Kabbalah, and the Logos. More details will be shared soon.

In addition, my work on reconstructing the Hebrew and Aramaic origins of the New Testament continues. The lost Gospel according to the Hebrews, used by the original Jewish followers of Yeshua, is being carefully reconstructed in both Hebrew and English. We hope to have it ready for public release soon.

For millennia, mankind has looked up into the night sky, stood in awe before the ocean, and pondered the structure of the atom—all in search of one thing: to know the mind of Elohim. The ancient prophets saw the heavens as declaring the glory of El, and modern physicists continue this same quest through equations, telescopes, and particle accelerators. The languages differ, but the longing is the same: to see beyond the veil—to rip the mask off the face of God.

Galileo once said, “Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe.” This is no mere poetic flourish—it is a profound theological insight. If creation is a text, mathematics is its grammar, and physics its syntax. Every law of nature is a divine utterance. The speed of light, the curvature of space, the quantum fields humming in the vacuum—all these are verses in a cosmic Torah.

Werner Heisenberg, the father of quantum mechanics, famously said, “The first gulp from the glass of natural sciences will turn you into an atheist, but at the bottom of the glass God is waiting for you.” He understood what many of today’s materialists miss: that deeper inquiry into the fabric of reality does not eliminate God—it brings us face-to-face with Him.

This is the very premise of Scripture itself. The Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 1:20:
“For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes—His eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.”
Likewise, Wisdom of Solomon 13:4–5 proclaims:
“But if through delight in the beauty of these things they assumed them to be gods, let them know how much better than these is their Lord, for the author of beauty created them. For from the greatness and beauty of created things comes a corresponding perception of their Creator.”

In 1 Thessalonians 5:21, we are commanded to “Test all things; hold fast that which is good.”
This is not merely spiritual advice—it is the core of the scientific method. Question. Test. Refine. Truth does not fear examination.

And in Hebrews 11:3 we read:
“By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of Elohim, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.”
What a staggering statement of quantum reality: that all matter arises from invisible fields and forces. The writer of Hebrews anticipated particle physics by nearly two thousand years.

This is why I write papers on Theoretical Physics, not as a distraction from my labor in hos Word, but as a manifestation of it! This is why I seek. My work in theoretical physics is not just about equations or models—it is about unmasking the Divine. About uncovering the foundational logic—the Logos—that underlies reality itself. This is not science divorced from faith, but science as worship—as sacred inquiry.

But my work does not stop with theoretical physics.

I continue to labor, day and night, on restoring the original Hebrew and Aramaic texts of the books of the New Testament. Our most ambitious project yet—the complete reconstruction of the Gospel according to the Hebrews in both Hebrew and English—is well underway. This is the lost Gospel once quoted by Church Fathers and read by the original followers of Yeshua. Soon, it will be published for the world to read again, for the first time in nearly two millennia.

All of this—physics, Scripture, language, truth—it is one mission: to reveal the face of Elohim.

But we cannot do this alone.

Our rent was due on Friday. As of now, we still do not have it. We need your help.
