Thank you Brad,
We had a long discussion about this piece few weeks ego.
The title Hebrew is a resulte of the fashion and the revival of the Zionist movemnt in Russia and east Europe
at the begining of the 20th century. The Hebrew language was spoken again after 2000 years and people started to make Aliya to Israel. Hebrew (in Hebrew language its : IVRI[ like the name Ivri Gitliss]) is every thing that exsits on the west side of the Jordan. The people that live on the west side - now the state of Israel - are Hebrew and the language is Hebrew.
The title in the Russian Edition is Jewish and it is the correct one because Jewish is the international name of the Yiddish people, Hebrew refers only to the people that live on the west side of the Jordan (Ever Ha'Yarden in Hebrew).

My heart is with all the Christian world today for the loss of the Pope , who was a great friend to the Jewish nation.
