The Strong's Deception

[be(t)et lamed resh]

From Chabad (linked below, all emphasis mine).

History of Tiberias
Herod Antipas, son of Herod the Great, built the city in 17 BCE, naming it in honor of the Roman emperor Tiberius. Tiberias became the capital of the Galilee, replacing nearby Tzippori. The new city was set in a beautiful locale, along the shore of the Kinneret, near natural mineral hot springs with health giving properties. However, it was also the site of an ancient cemetery. As such it was ritually unclean, and Jews refused to live there. Antipas forced some Jews from the Galilean countryside to move into his showcase town, but for the next two centuries most Jews shunned Tiberias.

Meanwhile, the Jewish nation was undergoing a crisis. In 69 CE, Jerusalem and the Second Temple were destroyed. Shortly before Jerusalem was destroyed, Rabbi Yochanan ben Zakkai snuck out of the besieged city and established Yavneh as the new center for Jewish learning and leadership (click here for the full story), a response which later inspired German poet Heinriche Heine to call the Torah the "portable homeland of the Jew."

For the next seventy years, the Sanhedrin would meet in Yavneh and then later in the small agricultural village of Usha. After the Bar Kochba rebellion was quashed in 135 CE, virtually all Jewish life was wiped out of the entire southern Judean region. At this point, the Jewish center moved to the northern Galilee region. Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai purified Tiberias of its graves (see below), and Tiberias, as well as neighboring Tzippori, became the main centers of Jewish learning and culture.

Following the death of Rabbi Judah the Prince in c. 220, the Sanhedrin made its final migration from Tzippori to Tiberias. From then on, Tiberias would remain the center of the diminished Jewish society of the land of Israel until the tenth century.

In 358, following another Jewish revolt (known as the War against Gallus) the Roman emperor disbanded the Sanhedrin. Despite these persecutions, the sages worked on compiling the Talmud. Around 400, the "Jerusalem Talmud" was canonized in Tiberias.

In the latter half of the millennium, Tiberias, now under Muslim control, was the home of the Masoretes (Mesorah means "transmission"), scholars who were concerned with the accurate transmission of the biblical texts. These grammarians also introduced the vowel notation system for Hebrew that is still used today. The Aleppo Codex, which can now be seen in the Shrine of the Book in Jerusalem, is credited to the greatest of the Masoretes, Aaron ben Asher. During this era, Tiberias was struck by several major earthquakes which devastated most of the city.
Chabad - Tiberias

Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai spent thirteen years in a cave hiding from the Romans. Due to a dearth of clothing, he spent most of the time buried up to his neck in sand. As a result, his skin wasn't in great condition when he finally left the cave, so he went to bathe in the hot springs of Tiberias and was cured. When he gratefully asked the people of Tiberias what he could do for them, they asked him to find a remedy for the city's ritual impurity, so that Jews would want to come and live there. He miraculously caused all the corpses in the city to rise to the surface of the ground, and they were removed.

Other sources say this was a kabbalistic ritual to raise the dead so that the bodies could be buried elsewhere.

The Synagogue at Tiberias:

Sol / Helios

Mosaic Decoration at the Hammath Tiberias Synagogue

Tiny cube-shaped pieces of cut stone and glass combine to form a mosaic image of a god, a beautiful young male with curly hair and a radiant crown of seven rays of light. He raises his right hand as if signaling his mastery of the cosmos. In his left hand, he holds an orb (representing the sun) and a whip to urge his horses forward. He once stood in a quadriga, a chariot pulled by four horses, now destroyed by the later addition of a wall, though their hooves can still be seen. This 4th-century mosaic depicts the indomitable Roman sun god Sol, known in Greek as Helios.

So then, they rejected the Meshiah but had no problem with the Greek and Roman sun gods, Helios and Sol. Then they raised the dead with a kabbalistic ritual because the city they desired to dwell in was built on a cemetery by Herod Antipas. Then they exhumed all the bodies and bones and buried the former bodies of the formerly dead somewhere else, proclaimed the city to be cleansed, set up shop, and sat down to finalize the Jerusalem Talmud and begin working on the Masoretic Text.

If you believe the Masoretic script, vowels included aren't k'doshm then yes we are at an impass. And that is because it's both against the sop and my Faith.
I'm a bit confused as to how this forum works so far.

Either forth thankyou for the interaction. Aramaic is Hebrew.

I suppose it's best to get back to the hebrew consonants according to strongs editions etc, etc, plus.

According to your own interpretation of the SOP you are complaining about what you yourself already did when you called the Paleo Hebrew Script of the Torah and the Prophets "scribble". Why do what you do and then accuse others of doing what you've already done when they disagree with your belief that the vowel pointing in the Masoretic Text is Holy? (Qodesh).

השם יהוה נאמר

We disagree: that doesn't make what I posted incorrect. It was Herod who somehow got possession of one or more of the old Tyre mints and began stamping coinage, which ended up in use in the temple simply because it was a reliable standard weight, which then later allowed Ananus ben Seth to gain...

That discussion concerns Rashbi, (Rabbi Shimon ben Yochai), the author of the Zohar, whose passing is honored every year by many Jews on the date of his passing, Lag B'Omer. The legends concerning him are well known and fantastical. It was even said that he could slay people with just an angry stare. The point here being that there is no way Chabad would be trying to get away with a wild story about such a person knowing that they would immediately be called out for it. In fact the article which I linked to appears to be well watered down for general public consumption. You are simply in denial, (for obvious reasons).

The Torah vowels are burned on particular skins for a reason . Certain fire and certain ink after the hip of stone failed to net attention.
An ink water from the stone that moshe split and gave with strength proved prophecy . Though admonished for creating the scroll after 2 stone slabs?. Moshe was rewarded for his faith.
And then his staff was shaped into a pen to mark living flesh. The only mistake was in imitating a force of impatience. Eventually Moshe shared the Lashon script and gave it to his elder brother, which was a cost of death to 2 unlikeliest children whom dared approach The Alter with a strange temperate color of Fire.

Fire and vowels have color. Brass, iron, silver, and gold..

45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter; and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure

[Yahudim]

From Wikipedia:

Shimon bar Yochai (Zoharic Aramaic: שמעון בר יוחאי, Shim'on bar Yoḥai) or Shimon ben Yochai (Mishnaic Hebrew: שמעון בן יוחאי, Shim'on ben Yoḥai),[note 1] also known by the acronym Rashbi,[note 2] was a 2nd-century tannaitic sage in ancient Judea. He was one of the most eminent disciples of Rabbi Akiva. The Zohar, a 13th century foundational work of Kabbalah, is ascribed to him by Kabbalistic tradition.

In addition, the important legal works called Sifre and Mekhilta are attributed to him (not to be confused with the Mekhilta of Rabbi Ishmael, of which much of the text is the same). In the Mishnah, where he is the fourth-most mentioned sage,[1] he is referred to as simply "Rabbi Shimon" (except Hagigah 1:7). In the baraita, midrash and gemara his name occurs either as Shimon or as Shimon ben Yochai.

Every year on Lag BaOmer (18 Iyar), we remember the great and holy Tanna (Mishnaic sage) Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, who died on this day about eighteen centuries ago. To this day, pious Jews make an annual pilgrimage to Kefar Meron, in the Land of Israel, to pray at the tomb of this great and holy scholar.

[" One of the more daring, may I say, exegeses in the Zohar is an analysis on the verse: “Three times a year all of your males should go up to apprehend the face of the master, Hashem.”]

Rebbe Shimon asks, “Who is the verse referring to when it says, ‘the face of the Master, Hashem?’” He answers: “It is a reference to none other than Rashbi himself.”]

By marginalizing and even denigrating the only one who is claimed to have ritually purified the city of Tiberias you have inadvertently shot yourself, (and your own claims), in the foot.

It is well known historical fact that Herod Antipas built the city of Tiberias over a cemetery. It is well known historical fact that Jews would not live in Tiberias because of that fact, for it was considered ritually unclean, defiled, and that went on for several hundred years. And yet the Masoretic Text was created at Tiberias, which is no doubt the reason for the claim that it was ritually purified before that happened, and yet the one who is claimed to have ritually purified that city is the one you have proverbially thrown under the bus.

Your claim that the Masorete vowel pointing system is Holy has therefore been falsified by your own words.

The Torah vowels are burned on particular skins for a reason .

Even modern Torah Scrolls do not contain the Masorete pointing system.

I suppose that is what happens when a person ignores the scripture, and historical facts, and culture and custom, in order to make up their own stuff. By the way, the ink is described in the Torah: the boiled down "pure" blood of the grape, (H2560-H2561, chamar-chemer, which was mixed with shiyttiym-acacia tree sap and some form of carbon, probably lamp-black). The Word was written in the blood of the grape, even from the very beginning, including the heavenly tablets of Toldoth-Breshiyth.

Burned in skins is a traditional reference to shimon the tanner.
More specifically "house of the tanners" . A bridge through history.

Acts ch10
[ 28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

29 Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?

30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,

31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.

32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.]

You missed chomer and chumar.

In the parable of the wine-skins the wine-skin is your heart, which must first be tanned, (renewed-refreshed), for it was formerly the property of a beast or living creature, (generally a goat). There are multiple threads wherein you were present and yet ignored the symbolism which would have led you to this understanding from the Master. Once you are indeed put to death your skin will belong to the Kohen, (in this case haKohen haGadol), and he will send your skin to "Shimon the Tanner" so as to be prepared for whatever use the Kohen decides shall be appropriate. Pray that your skin is prepared as a panel to receive the Word, like a panel stitched together with your brethren, as one scroll, (you missed the teachings of Paul on this too). However this now is not the topic, is it?
