A while back, while cruising the web for interesting material regarding Hebrew and Judaism, I stumbled across the linguistic research of Professor Isaac E. Mozeson. Through his database of related word cognates from the various lingustic dialects spoken around the globe he has begun to establish the common threads which tie these varying tongues to a single ancestral spoken language. He’s dubbed this language “Edenic,” he’s published books, a power point slide show and now even a video game which you can play at http://www.edenics.net.
When I first saw the Power Point presentation I wanted to take the opportunity to make that presentation available through some of the newer “web 2.0” venues like youtube and facebook. It also turned out that Professor Mozeson had a few changes in mind for the slideshow. So, I set out to update what was already a fantastic tool for introducing people to the concepts of Edenics.
Finally, that update is ready and has been officially released to the public. It is a bit shy of 35 minutes in total and broken into four parts to meet youtube’s 10 minute time limit.
So, without further ado, please enjoy the new Introduction to Edenics 5770:
which details how many of the Pirates of the Caribbean were actually Jews fleeing the Spanish Inquisition. Of course, this makes perfect sense, since the Pirates were funded by enemies of Spain it only makes sense that Jews would be among those supporters.
