A tree takes soil, sunlight, and water, combines them all and produces an apple, made out of those ingredients.

How does it know how to do this? Not a single scientist in the world can do it. Give him dirt, water and sunlight and ask him to make an apple. Wont happen.

So how does the tree know how to do it? Who "programmed" the tree with this wisdom?

Every leaf on a tree has one shiny side and one dull side. the shiny side "catches" the sunlight and uses it for the tree's purpose. The dull side does not have sun-catching apparatus.

In every tree in the world, every leaf grows with the shiny side up, cuz that’s where the sun is.

How did the tree "know" that the sun is up? And that it should put the sun-catching apparatus on the top of the leaf? And never on the bottom?

I could go on literally forever. Every single cell in a tree - and every thing else in the world - contains so much wisdom and shows awareness of everything else in the world. Who "programmed" these mega-computers?

That’s Hashem. There is no other alternative.
 
Hashem (the name) we Israelites(Jews) use it when we are not praying.

When praying we use or Ad*nai (My Lord) or El*h'im (G*d,All*h).



"Hear, O Israel: The Lord our G*d is One LORD:" (Deuteronomy 6:4)


Clarifying the linguistic connections between the Names All*h and El*him.
First we see the identical prononciation in Scripture:

The word for G*d in Genesis 1:1 is el*him, which is essentially a plural form of a more basic root-Hebrew word for G*d, (el*h).

Furthermore, the Arabic translation of the Jewish Bible uses the name "All*h" to refer to G*d in Genesis 1:1

" Fee al-badi' khalaqa All*hu as-Samaawaat wa al-Ard . . ."



In addition to the etymological connection based on sound, we also discover the connections of the two Names based on roots, spelling, meaning, and geography.

If one were to find the word (el*h) (alef-lamed-heh) in an inscription written in paleo-hebrew, aramaic, or some sort of Nabatean script, it could be pronounced numerous ways without the diacritical marks to guide the reader.

When treated as a verb root, this letter combination (proncounced alah) is the root for the verb "to swear" or "to take an oath," as well as the verb "to deify" or "to worship"

[look up alef-lamed-heh (ALH) in Milon Ben-Y'hudaah, Ivri-Angli (Ben Yehuda's Hebrew-English Dictionary)]. The root itself finds its origin with an older root, el, which means G*d, deity, power, strength..

So, one of the basic Hebrew words for G*d, (el*h), can easily be pronounced alah without the diacritical marks. Not surprisingly, the Aramaic word for G*d, according to the Lexicon offered at http://pe****ta.org, is (alah).

This word, in the standard script (), or the Estrangela script (), is spelled alap-lamad-heh (ALH), which are the exact corresponding letters to the Hebrew el*h.

The Aramaic is closely related to the more ancient root word for G*d, eel (according to Robert Oshana's on-line introduction to basic Assyrian Aramaic at www.learnassyrian.com).

The Arabic word for G*d, All*h, is spelled in a very similar way, and is remotely related to the more generic word for deity, ilah. We're quickly starting to notice the obvious linguistic and etymological connections between the respective words for G*d in these closely related Semitic languages (e.g. Allah, Alah, and Eloh being related to Ilah, Eel, and El, respectively).

Let me make it more clear....

  1. We have made the connection in terms of spelling, as all these words are spelled similar to one another.
  2. The geographic connection is there, as these respective languages originate in regions that are very close to one another.
  3. The roots are also basically the same.
  4. The meanings are essentially the same.
  5. In conclusion, the ancient Semitic names for God (Allah and Elohim) are actually the same.
Peace
