'iysh H376 Hebrew for man;
husband; mixed crowds of both women and men; homosapien-sapien in general; even
translated by scholars as “you [thou]” in Proverbs 3:31 (KJV). The word, Iysh, has no legitimate claim as a word exclusive
to males. Context alone must determine translation...In this commentary, the phonetic spelling of
the Hebrew word 'iysh
is used instead of the word man, mankind, or human whenever the word refers
to mixed crowds of both sexes or to the human race in general. As this commentary
is posted online one chapter at a time, readers may find this definition posted
in footnotes for first use of in any given chapter

Christianity, such as the Godhead, the virgin birth, and the physical
