. >>> president obama gets his b hebrew on. >> since i'm starting to get good at hebrew.y my wine. come on. bring another one. a toast -- [ speaking hebrew ] >> that's good wine. >> not bad, that was president obama doing his state dinner in israel last night. the hebrew toast he shared means, "to life." the president's first lady is crowned queen, sort of, the uk sunday "times" style magazine created this image on a first-class stamp. the image created to mark her first-place ranking on the best-dressed list. >>> presidential chris christie got an inquiry about his residential aspirations from a group of third graders. >> i'm a third grader at the elementary school. you've done a great job here in new jersey and i was wondering if you were thinking about running for president. >> do you work for msnbc? >> i'm not thinking about running for president right now. because i got a job to do here i've got an obligation to all of these folks and you and the other people of new jersey to not take my eyes of the job right now. you can't worry about fourth grade until you finish t

and i'm sure hebrew university.ew university have the master -- the original archives princeton have a copy, and boston university have a copy. c-span: he was offered the presidency of israel. >> guest: he was offered the presidency of israel, and he was very ill. it was shortly before he died. he died in '55 at 76. he was offered it, obviously, in '48, when israel became israel. but he said that it was not a job he could do, really dealing with people. and despite the fact that he claimed to be a man who loved to be alone and that sort of thing, he had more close friends than anyone i know about and communicated with more people and wrote to them and... c-span: who were his closest friends? >> guest: i think his closest friends were, in his young days, marcel grossmann and michelangelo besso, who worked with him on his science -- was like a sounding board for him; and another man called max born, who was a scientist, and max born's wife, hedi born. and in america, in later life, bucky was one of his closest friends

it's means people yearning back to the hebrews, and nobody know who wrote it. it was attributed to paul for many years, but it's definitely not by him in doctrine or language or in any way. it remains totally anonymous. there's many attempts to figure out if an author for it. the los angeles is different from the new testament, and there's many, many new words, different words. it's good greek, by the way, whoever it was -- it's a weird argument. because he is trying to placate yearning back towards temple worship. he does two things. he says, you don't have to worry, we have our own sacrifices, and it's better than the old temple worship. on the other hand, he wants it similar to satisfy the fact that that is what they are yearning back to. he tries to show saying ours is better because that was animal sacrifices. we have human sacrifices. jesus iewfers himself up as a sacrifice to god, to the father. augustine really destroyed that argument too saying, you think the fatherments to kill his son noter to make himself happy? with mankind? he says in a way it's l

hebrew, noted he spoke how much hebrew he used. and then at the end of his visit, brokered a phone call between prime minister netanyahu and the president of turkey, two countries that have been estranged since a turkish boat on the way to help gaza was attacked by israeli commandos? gwen: so, tom, is this like woody allen says, 90% of life is showing up? just the president showing up was enough to paper over or fix a lot of the problems existing? >> well, he said some really interesting things from the israeli point of view. one of the very interesting things was going to escape a lot of people's attention is he reaffirmed support not just for the state of israel but for the idea of zionism. that was important to the israelis. it seemed to me he nudged a little bit closer to israel's position vis-a-vis iran. but the perception that bothered them tazz -- was not only that he was unsympathetic to israel but that the united states is disengaged, that the united states is no longer the player in the region that it once was. that's why

this one is in hebrew. and it will be launched in israel.dea to expand the franchise there is causing a little bit of controversy. here's jonathan mann. >> reporter: it is a land of three great faiths. a place of prayer and piating. it has launched a new "playboy" edition. it reads from right to left, but that's if you're reading the articles. they are on the cover and in the magazine for another reason. >> people are telling me why are you doing that? it opened their eyes, like i'm doing something very wrong. there are people that are very proud of me also. >> the first time it's happening in israel, first time that an israeli girl is being "playboy" playmate. and i'm very proud and privileged to be a part of it. >> reporter: israelis are mindful of the ten commandments and the devout who observe them. thou shalt not cover thy neighbor's wife. what about the cover stand? reaction is mixed. >> i don't use it because i'm religious. >> it's good. >> reporter: it's good? >> yeah. >> lots of pictures of girls without clothes in it? >> it's very

for leading israeli newspaper it was the last major story sunday our rami would write for the hebrew press a month later gaza's ruling hamas party banned palestinian journalists from working with israeli media accusing it of being hostile tel aviv refuses to recognize hamas and regards it as a terrorist organization and a magnet for mother i do not understand this decision unfortunately i feel that our struggle will have less meaning if we do not speak to the israeli media and make them hear our message sami feels he's on a personal crusade to help both sides better understand each other when his nine year old daughter was hit by an israeli missile it was his israeli editors who arranged for her to be bought across the border and treated and it was in the newspapers that he published his anger and anguish over israel's bombardment of gaza. the how to. israelis using the media in its war against us in this war journalists are under attack they want to kill all our words and reports that prove that there were no crimes in gaza is that their father has a half year of the attack is comin

story, and the great myth in all of the rest of - in the prophets, the historical section of the hebrew bible and then in the writings, what you find there is the quest to live up to that covenant, and the interesting, powerful characteristics when they don't. so i want to do a couple of things in terms of our roll-ins - got to get our roll-ins in here. first, me reading the bible - just like jimmy swswaggart. no, i don't hit it on my hand or anything like that. but we went out to north shore congregation israel reformed synagogue here in the chicago area, and we will come and talk shortly to rabbi bronstein, who does a wonderful job on our dimensional triangle. but what i did is i just - i wanted to take a bible, and i picked up one of the psalms. the psalms, in many cases, are, well, they're songs about the great mythic tradition. and i just picked one psalm, i think it's 139, unless it's 136, but it's right in the 130s, and i'm just going to read it, and listen for how the creation myths, the liberation myth or exodus myth, and then the sinai myth are encapsulated in this. and then y

it's going to be in hebrew with local israeli models.l because "playboy" is in israel already, but it's in english. this is actually a hebrew edition and it's just launched. >> not only can it, it will backwards. >> local models and in hebrew of all things. >> they say everybody buys those magazines for the articles any way. so that makes a little sense that's why it would be there right, i guess. you know. now you're wonder what the heck are they doing? today happens to be -- yesterday happened to be the 50th anniversary of this bad boy, the hula hoop. and because we're on this show, we get to show you how ridiculous we look trying to do the hula hoop. he's got a 9-year-old so he gets a lot of practice. >> how do you like me now? >> oh yeah, oh, yeah. if you look down, you lose it. i know what i can do. how's that, huh? how do you like me now, guys? i can keep going forever. keep it going. >> i enjoy pogo sticks. >> when is the 50th anniversary of pogo sticks. come on, we can do it. i'm so glad i wore my heels for this. now i'm sweating

the exodus - justice, liberation, and being called out of exile in egypt, and the hebrew people - gives great odds with miraculous powers and heroes such as moses and aaron, miracles happening, like doves falling out of the sky and rivers parting, like cecil b. demille did it so many years later. if you've ever seen - you want to see myth americanized, you want to see how the old testament gets laid down with hollywood, just go rent the ten commandments , 1950s, from cecil b. demille. i actually use that in class - i can't do it in this one because of copyright, but it's myth, hands down - kind of schlock-myth, but it's myth; he can have it. of course, the third great myth is the covenant. that culminates - and i love this from the point of view of our class themes, because we get created, justice becomes a foundational thing - liberation, freedom, justice; in all kinds of ways, you can see that with the liberation story. but then with the covenant,

, save yourself and a super description also was written over him and letters of greek, latin and hebrew. this is the king of the jews. pilate wrote a title and put it on the cross and the writing was, jesus of nazareth, the king of the jews. and the super scription of the accusation was written over the king of the jews. and one of the male factors which was hanged railed on him saying if you be the christ, save yourself and us, but the other answered rebuked him saying do you fear god seeing you are in conthe same condemnation? ~ some no worse than others, no doubt, but last week if you listened to me, we learned there are two kingdoms. there is the kingdom of satan and there is the kingdom of god. that's why jesus said the greatest sin you can commit is not to believe in him. because if you believe in him, you'll be saved. you'll be forgivenand the results of being saved is good works. he said for by grace are you saved through faith and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of god, not of works that no man [inaudible]. >> thank you very much. next speaker. >>> thank you. my name is

[laughter] i know, it looks like it's going up, but remember, in hebrew you read charts from right to left. [cheers and applause] all right? [cheers and applause] and our worst fears about obama were confirmed when he appointed as secretary of defense former senator and man who just learned his dog died-- chuck hagel. [laughter] hagel has a history of troubling statements. he once said the jewy lobby intimidate dates a lot people and i'm not an israeli senator i'm a united states senator. clearly this man doesn't understand that when it comes to israel, there are certain things you can't say. for instance, implying that there are certain things you can't say. which there aren't. you can say anything you want about israel, which i would, if there was anything to say. but there isn't. so there's nothing to be said. how dare hagel say it. now the administration's gonna make a big dilly-o about the fact that while he's over there, obama is going to get israel's highest civilian honor, the "presidential medal of distinction." but it's not that great, once you eat the chocolate. [laughter]

they can now read it in hebrew. it hits newsstands in israel this week.l feature israeli writers and models. it has been available in israel for many years, but never with original content in hebrew. >>> a few drinks to celebrate a job well done at the u.n., it isn't that rare. but did you know that drinking is going on during some negotiations? richard roth reports that a u.s. delegates wants to put an end to all of that. >> put 193 countries who all want something from each other in one place and you're bound to have some drinking. it could ease tensions and perhaps lower barriers to agreement. in a rare rebuke to the world, a u.s. diplomat monday in public scolded fellow diplomats for drinking on the job. >> as for the conduct of negotiations, mr. chairman, we make the modest proposal that the negotiating rooms should in future be an ininebriation free zone. >> there are stories told of delegates even bringing in liquor to close in negotiations on christmas budget talks. the most famous u.n. drinking incident occurred more than two years ago overseas w

matza to win over this skeptical crowd >> so long as there is a united states of america (speaking hebrew), you are not alone. sniem is that what that means? touche or as they say in israel, touchay. a stunning declaration of american support for israel's right to exist. and in the same speech... >> the palestinian people's right to self-determination, their right to justice must also be recognized. ( applause ) just as israelis built a state in their homeland, palestinians have a right to be a free people in their own land. ( applause ) >> jon: an american president sketching out a path to a israeli state, to a palestinian state. why didn't no one think of this sooner? >> we support a palestinian state, one that is negotiated by the parties. one that recognizes that israel has got a right to exist. >> jon: sooner. palestinians must recognize the right of israel. israel must recognize the right of palestinians. >> jon: sooner! in our view, something must be developed that gives the palestinians people meaningful control over their own lives and fate and provides for the acceptance and sec

another place the bar was lowered was on the president's speaking hebrew.ma: [ speaking hebrew ] [ cheers and applause ] michael: shalom is an easy one. give me how you would say it? >> i'd give him a 10 for effort. michael: that's all make matters, david siegel is the consul general from israel here in los angeles. thank you for coming into "the young turks." thank you. >> we will talk about the budget when we come back. paul ryan's at it again. >> borrowing more and spending more is not a path to prosperity. it is not going to give us a healthy economy. billy zane stars in barabbas. coming in march to reelz. to find reelz in your area, go to reelz.com the chill of peppermint. the rich dark chocolate. york peppermint pattie get the sensation. >> if you believe in state's rights but still support the drug war you must be high. >> "viewpoint" digs deep into the issues of the day. >> do you think that there is any chance we'll see this president even say the words "carbon tax"? >> with an open mind... >> has the time finally come for real immigration reform?

in hebrew. which makes him the first president in history to have to handle a hebrew heckler. then came the first standing ovation. >> i believe that you will shape our future, and given the ties between our countries -- i believe your future is bound to ours. [ heckling ] >> no, no. this is part of the lively debate that we talked about. this is good. i have to say, we actually arranged for that, because it made me feel at home. you know, i -- i wouldn't feel comfortable if i didn't have at least one heckler. >> the president then proceeded to deliver a speech that surely would have gotten him booed and heckled by many self-proclaimed friends of israel in the united states, if he had given that speech in the united states, where pretending to speak for the people of israel, and pretending to defend their interests is a common pastime of republican politicians who attacked this president's choice for secretary of defense as somehow being an enemy of israel. it is a common past time for fox news commentators and other right wing pundits. they would have shouted down this presid

>> i learned president obama can speak a little hebrew and is hip with the israeli youth apparently. >> very nice. >> i love it. >> what did you learn, mika? >> in a conversation on twit bert the retro wife -- >> talk about that for a minute. >> it's just lights up when i tweeted the segment we did yesterday with joanna coles, and on the front page of new york magazine. >> lisa miller is great. >> i will tell you what you learned. >> what? >> how do ask a question from little children in new jersey. take a look at the tape, joe, and take a cue. >> quick. to the point. >> anything else? >> got any weekend plans? >> yes. >> what are you doing? >> college hunting. >> oh. wow. >> i remember those days. >> for amelia? what about you, sam? you're getting out of college in a year. >> yeah. i'm still at college. >> getting his application. >> i have girlfriends visiting from cleveland, ohio. >> part of rock 'n roll. >> you have a live chat. >> here's what i'm going to do. a live twitter chat right after the show at joe nbc. thank you so much for watching. have a great weekend. thank you for

waters beneath the earth" was an injunction against figurative art taken seriously by both arabs and hebrews. as a result, they developed a purely abstract and geometric art like that exemplified in the alhambra. much of the mathematics we study today owes at least as much to the early islamic mathematicians as it does to the ancient greeks. in fact, many of the ideas developed by european renaissance mathematicians were first developed by islamic mathematicians four centuries earlier. beginning in the late 8th century, at the house of wisdom in baghdad, islamic mathematicians translated the greek texts -- like euclid's elements -- into arabic. islamic mathematicians were interested in both pure and applied mathematics. they used it in astronomy, geography, time-keeping, and even in the legal arena, where they used it to settleroblems in the division of inheritances. after the work of al-khwarizmi in the 9th century, algebra became a unifying theory. it allowed things like rational numbers, irrational numbers, and geometric magnitudes to all be treated as "algebraic objects," that is, abstra

the things that god was asking the hebrews to do at that time and i came across a couple instances of genocide and infanticide which dealt quite a big blow to me as a as a believer and you describe struggling with a lot of contradictions that are inherent in the bible in the teachings what would you say is one of those main contradictions that you couldn't really come to terms with. wasn't the primary contradiction to me is the idea of a loving and caring god coming in and having a personal relationship with you and then at the same time there's this slaughterhouse mentality that is kind of hidden in the background that you're not really told about and it isn't brought up very often only when maybe there is a war that needs to happen or when a political party or someone with motivations outside of your faith ones too. to use you and i found myself in that position and you also describe a lot of the us versus them mentality you kind of perpetuating through the doctrine you say this in your book that i want to quote you said while we accept that our government is defending us then peopl
