This week I came upon a one-word Psalm, buried in a list of Davidic descendents at the end of I Chronicles 3. Here it is:
Elioenai
Not only does it sound beautiful – say ElYOeneye – but there’s a lot of meaning packed into that one word.
It means: “Toward Jehovah are my eyes.”
Now it’s stuck in my head, and I couldn’t be happier to have it there.
Elioenai!
- by Elisabeth A.
I love it!
Elioenai!
how do you pronounce it? i couldn’t figure out how you said.
Oh, it’s not too clear is it? How’s this?
el-YO-eh-nai.
Oops, that should have had a comma. “It’s not too clear, is it?” I am validating your confusion, not mocking it! :O)
I use that all the time! I love how it sounds!
Sister un Christ,

I love that word! I am learning Hebrew and am continually amazed at how much beauty, meaning, and richness is in each word and phrase.
Beautiful…
I need to rememeber this one…Thank you for sharing it, Elisabeth:-)
El-YO-eh-nye? Thanks!
