Come unto me, all ye who are weary of heavy-laden clients and I will give you REST.

You are right. Still researching on the question. Will come back later to clarify. Later means, probably in 2 months'.

comment Red Heifer or Heifer of Soil
Certainly, I should write "cow of soil" rather than "cow of the soil". However, in English, writing "the soil" would negate the possibility of involvement of cow soil.

comment Is the name Israel intended to be ambiguous?
I get depressed when the question is the answer itself, because it becomes revealing that there is not further/much would/could I know about the subject other than what is already provided in the question.

comment Is Hosea 11:1 referencing the initiation of the Exodus or the sojourn in Egypt?
Ahava is a brand of skin-care in Israel associated with the minerals of the Dead Sea en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahava. It's quite a romantic word, at least in modern Hebrew,

Maybe the Christian English Bibles should all refactor all occurrences of Jesus to Joshua.

comment On what basis is the name “Ephraim” given the etymology of “ash heap”?
Sub-roots is a very midrashaesque concept. Meaning they have expository and gematric value in scholarship but not much evidence linguistically. As you can see my similar attempts at hermeneutics.stackexchange.com/questions/2062/… was voted down. Perhaps, whoever voted me down should consider voting this down too - to be fair to me.

comment Is there no hope of salvation for the people addressed in Isaiah 59:2?
Like the one that the friends of Daniel was threatened with when they refused to bow down to an unfamilair god offering to bribe them with unfamiliar salvation?

I don't see a single implication of hell in this passage. BTW, what is hell? Under which definition are you referring to?

comment On what basis is the name “Ephraim” given the etymology of “ash heap”?
BTW, אפר in modern hebrew also mean to put on make-up. Does this come from an ancient source of painting one's face, as I think ancient Egyptians must have practiced. Therefore, the hiphil could imply a make-up artist.

Any spiritual allusion or allegorization between humans, faith and the beer?

comment Psalm 23 - long long pursuit of the house of the LORD
I think I made a mistake in נחן. I think it means more like bestow rather than to marshal. i.e., "He grants me to be within the karma/encirclement/track of righteousness".
