Re: more: cross-symbol origins

hi all,
hi Patty,

it is arabic for sure,

i'll translate the 1st paragraph (for free :P)

And the Lord planteth from Earth every appetizing and health-giving tree.
And the tree of life lies amidst heaven and so does the tree of knowledge...

at the end it says its taken from the book of hmmmm, i think it translates
to (origins)...

then the is followed by texts relating to what reads "the first test put
upon mankind (adam and eve) (good and evel)"...

adham.
