Old Chinese Characters
December 15th, 2009
I have spoken about this before locally, but it is quite fascinating what one can find. Embedded in a number of Chinese characters are what is believed to be pictographic representations of many of the Genesis stories from the Bible. In this example, the verb ‘to create’ is made up of a subset of other character words. It appears that the Chinese might actually embed both meaning and story within their traditional language. Now that is super cool! But really, how interesting that the Genesis story would be in there. Another tid bit of info… The Chinese culture was once theist, worshiping a singular being named Shang Ti (forgive if any misspelling please).
