An engineer, a storyteller, and an interfaith minister with a background in the sciences merge their talents and curiosity to explore how the structure of ancient spoken Hebrew-and other indigenous languages-may show us the path to balance, harmony, and sustainability today. The book articulates: o How language is a key factor to cultural consciousness; o Comparisons of cultures and their languages; o A systems-based understanding of our lives and planet; o Essential understandings for those who don't speak a 'language of life'; o Paradigm shifts and tools necessary to re-achieve a sustainable way of life on this planet; and o A hopeful conclusion informed by Indigenous wisdom outlining the guiding principles of balance and harmony to be lived every day in order to achieve ecological, social, and economic sustainability. It's a "must read" for all biblical scholars as well as those interested in Qabala, indigenous cultures, applied systems thinking, or sustainability.
