Talking With God: The Radioactive Ark of the Testimony
Communication Through It. Protecting From It.
By Roger D. Isaacs
- What was the true purpose of the Ark of the Testimony?
- Why did people die when they touched the Ark?
- Why did God “visit the iniquity of the fathers” on the “third and fourth” generation of their sons?
- Why was the purpose of the Israelites’ sacrifice different from that of the countries around them?
- Why doesn’t “holy” mean “holy?” Sin? Glory?
- What is the soul and exactly where is it located?
- What is God?
The answers to these and other questions, which have been obscured by centuries of biblical interpretations can be found in Talking With God: The Radioactive Ark Of the Testimony. Author Roger Isaacs analyzes 33 important words used in the Bible whose misinterpretations have skewed contemporary understanding of what happened in ancient times.
Roger Isaacs delves into Biblical words such as holy, glory, sin, and atonement that relate to the Ark of the Testimony and its purpose.

Roger Isaacs – Why I wrote “Talking With God”
Research and ancient languages reveal answers.
Isaacs did extensive research in digs, museums, and libraries in several countries, including Syria, Jordan, Turkey, Egypt, Israel, and England. He discovered related and loanwords in 18 ancient languages that, when associated with their Hebrew neighbors, help clarify the intent of the early observers who relayed the biblical events.
The meanings of numerous Old Testament words have shifted radically over time.
These word changes result from the fact that translators didn’t fully understand what the ancient Hebrew words originally meant and how they connected to the early Israelite’s experiences. Instead, translators have applied their own definitions and interpretations. These errors profoundly influence contemporary understanding of what really happened during biblical times.
