I would like to thank the author for this wonderful work which helped me better understand the covenant relationship and the name Shepherd along with other names. In particular I would highlight the meaning of the commendment "thou shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain",it is not just saying the name in vain, it is actually not representing His character in vain, since we are made in His image and His likeness and thus His character must be represented. This truth changes everything because we must show Him to the people, and when we don't we thus violate this very commandment. God bless you all.

An outstanding presentation of why we of the western civilization do not understand the Scriptures. While this is directed at the meaning of one's name in the Hebrew culture, it opens the door to understanding Sematic thought and how that culture saw the world about them.

In spite of its rather coarse presentation, this book is an eye opening experience when learning biblical Hebrew. Benner explains in a simple way what theologists and other adepts do not tell us about the sacred names of God, making us want to delve deeper and deeper, be it the culture, the Hebrew language or Kabbalah. His explanations and examples are cristal clear, even if one doesn't have any previous knowledge about Semitic languages. Now, The Bible, when reading a compared version (Hebrew-English) makes much more sense than before. Excellent work.

Jeff A. Benner's book, His Name is One, proves beyond any shadow of a doubt that learning Hebrew reveals gems within the Scriptures that will never be unearthed if one continues to cling to the sanitised NIV or King James English Versions.

Potentially volatile issues such as the oneness of the Father and the Son and the trinity dissipate into obscurity when one becomes unshackled by Greco-Roman thought and dons a Hebrew mindset.

A must have book for anyone who wishes to immerse themselves in a whole new world that is at best only hinted at in mainstream Christianity.

In the world of Biblical language studies there are numerous learning materials that teach one how to simply translate words from their form in one language to another. However, very few will explain to a person the difference between the cultures of two people, and how this affectts interpretation and translation.

This book will do just that; it will give the reader a firm introduction to ancient Hebrew culture, and how it affects the way we read, and translate the Old testament from the Hebrew scriptures. More specifically, how we translate the names of God, and view God. We, the English speaking world of today view God from a very abstract point. Most of us view God as an old man, resembling pictures of "father time", or as some glowing force in outer space somewhere, or as some "unseen force". To the ancient Hebrews, God was a father, a shepherd, a friend, and a savior. This will all become apparent upon reading this book.

As a student of Biblical Languages (Biblical Hebrew, Ancient Pictographic Hebrew, Ancient Greek, and Aramaic), I highly recommend this book. it is a must for all those who wish to obtain a deeper level of understanding concerning God, and how we view him through the Bible.

I learned a good deal from this book. I particularly liked how he addressed the mistranslations in modern day biblical text and exposed some of the more popular but ignorant modern day views. I think his intentions are genuine and that is more than I can say for some preachers and so called teachers. Jeff's book seems to bring light to the hebrew perspective and I respect the fact that he encourages study and cross referencing of material to dismantle bias. I am awaiting his lexicon. I sincerely hope that the Lord blesses him in his endeavors and he is able to truthfully share. And yes, I am a Christian!!!

This book is a great source of the good information that could develop into knowledge that could be an awesome step towards the windows of Wisdom.

Jeff Benner's books "His Name Is One" and "The Ancient Hebrew Language and Alphabet" are must reads for all Christians. Christianity over the millenia has stripped away it's Jewish roots thereby depriving today's Christian of it's rich heritage. Jeff's books help retrieve some of that lost heritage and introduces you to a God that is more awesome and more personal than you thought possible. I am anxious to read "Learn Biblical Hebrew"!

This was an exceptionally interesting book on the names of GOD in the Bible from the perspective of one knowledgeable in the ancient Hebrew language and customs. It is full of detail and yet easy to read. All the information is related to Scriptures, making it a valuable source for enhancing one's understanding of GOD's character and revelation of Himself. I highly recommend this book to all students of God's Word.

This book, as well as all of Jeff Benner's materials, are an absolute must for anyone interested in truly understanding the Bible. The insights are fabulous. By understanding the pictures expressed by the original Hebrew characters, Jeff takes us right back to the root of the word and shows the common sense meaning. With every Hebrew word studied, you leave with a sense of its simplicity and yet its profound implications. In His Name is One, Jeff takes you through many of the Hebrew words used to describe God. It gives tremendous insights into the character of God. I have many dictionaries, concordances, and word study books, but I consider Jeff Brenner's materials more valueable than anything available. They are scholarly and inspirational. I have purchased everything he has written and constantly reference them. I will not be without them. Biblical word study is powerful, and Jeff Benner's materials open the doors of understanding unlike anything else. I can't say enough praises about his books, and the blessings I have received thru them.

I enjoyed reading this book and I've reread it several times gaining new insight into Hebraic though each time. I appreciated your Web site and hope to one day be able to read the Old Testament in Hebrew.

The material contained within the pages of this book exemplifies the fact that the Hebrew language as well as the Scriptures are alive, not static as many would have it. Those of us whose native tongue is English are at a great disadvantage when trying to grasp a fuller meaning of the Scriptures. Mr. Benner does an excellent job of bridging the gap of Western thought and Eastern concepts in language, which is intrinsic in understanding Hebrew and the nature of the various names of God within the Scriptures.

This work clearly demonstrates that each letter of the Hebrew language (specially the ancient Paleo-Hebrew) has a meaning and life all its own. When combined into words, the words of Scripture truly jump to life before your eyes. As I was reading this book, I came to see Hebrew as more of a multi-dimensional language in which the character of Yahweh, Yahshua and the Ruach are intertwined.

I highly recommend "His Name Is One" to anyone seeking a richer meaning to Scripture and a deeper spiritual connection to the Almighty whom we serve.

I love this little book. It is most wonderful . It is very informative causing a heart to search even more. This little book has been so helpful in my research and is a gift of revelation to those who read it and continue to love and seek after and search out truth from the beginning to the end. May Yahweh continue to Bless Jeff A Benner and His Family. Thanks for being faithful to you call.

This book penetrates the heart. I enjoyed reading it and I am going to re-read it again and again. I would recommend that everyone read it and let the Ruach Kodesh [Holy Spirit] work in their heart.

This was my first exposure to word studies from this perspective. I was excited at the idea of praying "in Jesus character" and did not know whether to laugh in embarrassment or cry for joy at the picture of Almighty. Whether I actually master reading the OT in Hebrew or not, this type of revelation is my goal. I showed the book to our pastor and he wanted his own copy. Thanks again.
