00:00The word thanksgiving, giving tense in Hebrew is so different than how it sounds in English
00:04that it's going to surprise you and it's hide a beautiful secret.
00:07For example, in Hebrew, in Psalms 128, we never say give them.
00:12In the original language of the Bible, we don't say give them.
00:15We say hodu.
00:16Hodu comes from the word todah.
00:18When a lot of people want to say todah, they say hodu or modim.
00:22The difference is so bold.
00:24In English, we give something.
00:25In the original language of the Bible, the process is on us.
00:29And it's not just a new one.
00:30It comes from a very deep idea that the word thank you in Hebrew, todah, comes also from the word hod, majesty.
00:36The only way to recognize majesty or glory of something, of him, is when you're humble.
00:42The process is on you.
00:43You don't give anything.
00:44You work on yourself.
00:46So maybe the right way to represent it in English will be be thankful and not to give thanks.
00:50Let me know what you think about it.
00:51God bless you.
