THE GOD WHO READS HIS LESSONS.

The confusion created in certain terminology especially those used in theology and religion is leading the linguists  in the wrong direction sometime. One of them is the word GOD.

God Our Saviour (No. 198) The identity of the Saviour is often confused among the Christians.The bible seems to identify both Christ and God as the Saviour.

 

What about the Ancient “”Greeks””.

 

 

 

                  as a title of God: Poseidon Soter

                   any heroized leaders of Hellenistic dynasties, see hero cult

                   as a title of liberators : Ptolemy I Soter Antiochus I Soter Demetrius I Soter Menander

                   a title of Jesus, most particularly in the Pope Soter

Therefore the word sotër(zotër) in Ancient Greek , doesn’t mean simply saviour. It means God, Deity, Lord, King etc

What about the Albanian?

English (8 entries.)		Shqip (8 hyrje.)(ALBANIAN)
God		zot {m} (shumëszotër), perëndi
deity	zot {m} (shumës zotër), perëndi
divinity	të qenit zot
divinity	zot {m} (shumës zotër), perëndi
lord	zot {m}
gentleman (plural gentlemen)	zotëri {m} (tr. shq. zotëria,zotërinj)
master (noun)	zotëri {m}, zotërues / zotëruese

 What a huge coincidence!!!

Therefore in Albanian it means exactly the same thing/s like the Ancient Greek, with only the difference that Z is used instead of S, which of course doesn’t make a mayor difference, since those are equivalent consonants:

Voiceless consonant (surd)	Voiced equivalent
[s] (sip)	[z] (zip)

The noun ZOT himself in Albanian derives from the verb zotëroj

English (5 entries.)	Shqip (5 hyrje.)
dominate	zotëroj, mbizotëroj
master (verb)	zotëroj
own (verb)	zotëroj
possess	zotëroj
control (verb)	zotëroj

Let’s look at the word GOD in the dictionary:

How does the God is seen in the ancient times from the “”””””Greeks””””””?

The God has been seen as an instructor, a counseler, a divine voice, a speaker of the divine counsel, of the Nature Laws.

Who is the most ancient God of the Divine counsel?

Her name was :

In “””Greek “”” mythology, Hesiod mentions Themis (Greek: Θέμις). Themis (meaning “law of nature” rather than “human ordinance”), she “of good counsel,” was the embodiment of divine order, law and custom

In this role, she was the divine voice (themistes) who first instructed mankind in the primal laws of justice and morality, such as the precepts of piety, the rules of hospitality, good governance, conduct of assembly, and pious offerings to the gods.

And of course these instructions/ counseles/ advises/ suggestions is given speaking, saying, reading.

So the the God in Ancient “”Greek”” is seen as a teacher who teachs/says the rules to the humans

Her instructions were SPOKEN,  by SPEECH, or SAYING

English (4 entries.)	Shqip (4 hyrje.)(ALBANIAN)
say (p.t., p.p. said)	them (kr. thj., pj. thashë, thënë)

The verb inflection in Albanian is :

I say- them                      we say– themi

you say - thua                  you say– thoni

 he/she says- thote            they say- thone

 And the participle becomes thënë

In other tenses the inflection is even more radical but always we can find the th in the steam usually followed by a, e, o, or u and then by m, t, or n or even s.

God , a Being with perfect knowledge on all things – is willing to communicate and transmit His knowledge

This word  is the reason why the God in Ancient “Greek” is called Theos because he is somebody who talks/speaks/teachs to the human the laws of the nature.

This word is the reason why the most ancient God of the Egyptians is called THOTI,

 

THOT the GOD of the Wisdom and Writing

This verb in its participle is the reason that Athena ( Ἀθηνᾶ, Athēnâ, or Ἀθήνη, Athḗnē) which is the correspondant God of the Wisdom

English (6 entries.)	Shqip (6 hyrje.)
say (p.t., p.p. said)	them (kr. thj., pj. thashë, thënë)
saying	thënie {f}, e thënë {f} (emër)

Athene the God of Wisdom , Philosophy  Speech

 as  Philosophy who was delivering to the humans her Wisdom and the LAWS of the Nature and Philosophy through her SPEECH:

English (3 entries.)	Shqip (3 hyrje.)
law (noun)	ligj{m}
speech	ligjëratë {f}

 We also have the word λογος (logos) which means “word”. In Greek philosophy, the Logos was the “rational principle”(LAWS) responsible for order in the Universe.

Ἀthēnâ literatelly means PATHENA= Not said (would be explained another time)

The Nature Laws in antiquity were proclaimed said or red  from the Gods/Prophets in their speechs/readings.

Which in Albanian has survived in the word:

English (2 entries.)	Shqip (2 hyrje.)
read (p.t., p.p. read)	lexoj (kr. thj., pj. lexova, lexuar)

or

account for

(jap) llogari, shpjegoj

or

explain	shpjegoj
instruct	mësoj, shpjegoj, sqaroj

 Of course some people who still believe that the Modern Greeks are the descendents of the Ancient ones would pretend that these are coincidences. Some other would pretend that those above must be related with the similarities within the IE languages.

The confusion, the ‘fog’ created from Byzantine Orthodoxy and its numerosly artificially elaborated language: the Modern Greek, based only on some scholastic concepts(reflected in the language also), ‘covered’ by ‘divine mystery’ is temporary. Even the diabolic artificial incorporation of the Ancient Greek words in the body of the Modern Greek language has not ‘escaped’ not seen by the public attention. The truth prevails after all always.
