Jewish holy texts suggest the practice of meditation on the sacred words. This is a different type of meditation from transcendental techniques practiced in Buddhism. The goal is not to empty the self but to fill the self and to hear the voice. Not the inner voice of self, but the still small voice of God's spirit speaking to our souls. Hence, biblical meditation. If you are willing to try such a spiritual exercise, I offer you over an hour of instrumental, melodic Middle Eastern music and gorgeous views of the desert. Watch the video, play it in the background as you read and think, study with it, or simply close your eyes and unwind for a while. Your call, just try to listen...

40 Days of Hebrew Devotions
From Amazon customer: “40 DAYS of HEBREW DEVOTIONS, focuses on one daily Bible passage with a short discussion of significant Hebrew words… including a transliteration of pronunciation, & the meanings. A prayer using a Hebrew communal format ends the day's devotional. To read in one sitting (as I did last night for starters) & to use it as a daily devotional for 40 days or more, becomes a spiritual & intellectual journey, providing greater insights into these Scriptures than previously known. I recommend it for persons of either Jewish or Christian faiths or even people who are interested in historical cultural understanding.” Another reader’s review: “..this book helps take a deep dive in a way I can understand. Worth every penny I paid.” Another Amazon reader: “This book is for English readers, however it includes a lot of beginner-style Hebrew in it. It's a great, short daily read that is only about five minutes, and you find yourself thinking about it the rest of the day. I love this book.”
