Didn't you say it took 16 years to learn it?

That prophecy book took 16 years to write, and I had to learn Hebrew while I was reading and doing the writing.

It's amazing.

What's cool is the Hebrew word for bush, burning bush, is the same as Sinai, Mount Sinai.

Really?

Yeah, yeah.

The word's the same?

The same root.

The thing about the Hebrew language, at least for biblical Hebrew, is every word is based on a three-letter root.

So the word for bush contains those three letters, and the word for Sinai contains those same three letters.

Well, it could be that bush grew on Mount Sinai, and that was the significance of the location of the burning bush.

Could be.

Could be, yeah.

Well, you're talking about the acacia bush, which releases DMT when it's burnt.

Yeah.

And it's very common in that area, right?

Yeah.

In fact, there's a plant, it's a weed called Peganum harmala, which also grows in that part of the world.

And it contains beta carbolines, which are the compounds responsible for making DMT, for making ayahuasca orally active.

So they have their own ayahuasca plants available in tandem there.
