On The Etymology of the Name Moses

from Orientalistics: Podcast on Language, Religion and Culture · host Farshid Delshad

On The Etymology of the Name Moses In this episode, I delve into the fascinating intersections of linguistics, history, and culture, exploring the ‎name "Moses" Cf. Hebrew, ‎משה‎ Greek: Μωυσής, Arabic‏ موسى ‏‎ through its linguistic and symbolic ‎dimensions. We examine the representation of Moses in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs *Mo-uses, ‎unravelling connections to religious discourse, monotheism, and Freud’s intriguing insights on the origins ‎of guilt and intolerance. ‎ This discussion highlights the profound cultural and intellectual legacies tied to one of history's most ‎enduring figures. ‎ I’d love to hear your thoughts—share your feedback and join the conversation in the comments below!‎ Keywords: ‎#Moses; #Hieroglyphs; #Linguistics; #EgyptianScript; #CulturalHistory; #AncientLanguages; ‎‎#FreudAndReligion; #Monotheism; #Etymology; ‎#משה #Μωυσής #موسی
