As I represent a unique intersection of Christian, linguist/philologist, and computer geek, this was clearly designed to appeal to my precise demographic.
Now, I don't program anymore, but according to the FAQ, that does not disqualify me from enjoying this project!
Strange, even sinful, to write this interpreter in Java then.
Personally I find it hilarious that apparently in more than one case the common Hebrew spelling of YHWH, יהוה, was wrongly understood or just misspelled as πιπι (pee-pee) in Greek texts.

That also then generates a reason to try to avoid writing these names unnecessarily, because using them unnecessarily increases the chance that someone will deface them, or creates extra material that has to be disposed of carefully.
But I doubt you could even think about a programming language for ancient Hebrews
From FAQ: > Why not use Modern Hebrew?
> If you are able to program in this language, I have failed.
> Why are you running an interpreted language over an interpreted language?
> "Wherefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned" 4
That sounds very suspicious.
And I'm not joking about the bugfixes. A day off of _everything_ is a great way to reflect on the past six days, and to learn from them. I'm certain that my ostensibly-six-day-week is more productive than my seven-day-week ever was.
E.g. 5782 = 𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤒𐤐״𐤁
when clearly it should be 𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤕𐤒𐤐״𐤁
Back to atheism for me.
Side note: to a Jew, this obsession of Christians over Hebrew and Biblical things feels rather... creepy - although I can't quite rationalise it.
“Meh,” I said. “Meh. Meh. Meh. Meh. Meh.”
You can embed a realistic elephant in HolyC.
You can also write chess software to play against god.
