Chinese Characters that have Biblical Roots
A brief introduction

     When God separated the people at the Tower
    of Babel, He did so by confusing them through
    language.

    The peoples of the earth went their separate
    ways. Yet they never forgot where they came
    from or the history of man.
Oral traditions

    Every culture of the world has two stories that
    are universal:
        −   A universal flood that destroyed the world
            and the salvation of a tiny remnant.
        −   Evil coming into the world through the act of
            one woman.
The flood in Chinese: ship


                                         船

    Genesis 7:13: “On that
    very day Noah and his
    sons, Shem, Ham and
    Japheth, together with
    his wife and the wives of   
                                    Pronounced: “chuan”
    his three sons, entered
    the ark.”

    That's a total of 8
    people.
The break down

舟   means boat      八          means 8



口
                    
                        8 people on a boat.
                        Why 8? Genesis
      means mouth
                        7:13
(or persons
metaphorically)
The fall of man

    Genesis 2:8-9: Now the LORD God had planted a
    garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he
    had formed. 9 The LORD God made all kinds of trees
    grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the
    eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were
    the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and
    evil.

    Genesis 2:16-17: And the LORD God commanded the
    man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; 17
    but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of
    good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly
    die.”
Prohibit/ Forbid

                           tree (x2)

                           reveal, command
Prohibit/ Forbid summation

    The character for wood/ tree is duplicated; 2
    trees.

    The character for reveal, to show is below.

    Put it together: God presented 2 trees to
    Adam and said he is prohibited from eating
    one of them.
Greed

    Genesis 3:6: “When the woman saw that the
    fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing
    to the eye, and also desirable for gaining
    wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also
    gave some to her husband, who was with her,
    and he ate it.”
Greed


婪                        木 = wood,

    Pronounced: lán           tree (x2)

                         女 =              woman

Righteousness

    Genesis 4:4: “And Abel also brought an
    offering—fat portions from some of the
    firstborn of his flock. The LORD looked with
    favor on Abel and his offering,”

    John 1:29: “The next day John saw Jesus
    coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb
    of God, who takes away the sin of the world!”
Righteousness

     Exodus 12:1-7: The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt, “This month is to be
    for you the first month, the first month of your year. Tell the whole community of
    Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb[a] for his
    family, one for each household. If any household is too small for a whole lamb, they
    must share one with their nearest neighbor, having taken into account the number
    of people there are. You are to determine the amount of lamb needed in
    accordance with what each person will eat. The animals you choose must be year-
    old males without defect, and you may take them from the sheep or the goats.
    Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the members of
    the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight. Then they are to take
    some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the
    houses where they eat the lambs. (emphasis added)
Righteousness


義                     羊=       lamb,

    Pronounced “yì”    sheep


                      我=       I, me
Righteousness

    It's interesting that the character of lamb,
    sheep is written above “me”.

    To be righteous, a lamb must cover me.
Conclusion

    A ship

    To be greedy

    To forbid, prohibit

    Righteousness

    Each contains the truth of Genesis 2-4 transmitted
    linguistically in pictograms. There are no other
    explanations, or if there are, this is the best one.
