#0, Coins

Greetings,

1)Does anyone know of a good coin-dealer that sells Judean/Islamic coins

2)Does anyone know where I can find Walter Aziz mp3's? I love that guy.

3)Is it true that the "Arab" Christians in the East call G-d "Allah?" I am not a master of theology, but aren't there major differences between Christianity and Islam? Why would a Christian call G-d by the name of Allah? Then again, I should consider the similarities between Arabic and Aramaic. In Aramaic, the word for G-d is "Alaha." Perhaps, you can explain to me the differences between Islam and Christianity. It should be known that a monk from the Assyrian Church of the East tutored Muhammed. I believe that his name was Sergis. Since Sergis (a Christian) tutored Muhammed, I wonder why Muslims and Christians are still unable to sit in the same room without fighting theologically or physically.

Shlama Akhi Bar-Khela,

It should be spelled Shema d'Allaha (Name of God.) Of course, there's no standard for transliterating Aramaic into Roman characters.

Shlama Akhi Bar-Khela,

"Lishana" means 'tongue/language' and "Atiqa" means "classical/old/ancient".

The term is used for the Aramaic of the Peshitta.
