How does one greet a gentile in Hebrew?

Answer 1

In Hebrew, one can greet a gentile by saying "Shalom" which means "peace" or "hello." This is a common and respectful greeting used in Hebrew-speaking communities. Additionally, one could say "Boker tov" which means "good morning" or "Erev tov" which means "good evening" when greeting a gentile in Hebrew. It is important to be mindful of cultural norms and customs when greeting individuals from different backgrounds.

Answer 2

The Hebrew Bible doesn't record any verses where a single word or phrase was used as a "hello" greeting, however Jews have been using the Hebrew word "shalom" (שלום) as a greeting at least as far back as the era of the Talmud (200 CE to 600 CE)

Answer 3

שלום אח שלי נוצרי or Shalom akhi sheli nozri. Some would prefer Shalom akhi sheli Meshichi

Answer 4

You greet everyone the same, regardless of religion. The most common Hebrew greeting is "shalom" which means "peace".

Answer 5

There's no distinction in Hebrew between greeting Jews and greeting Gentiles. You would use the same Hebrew greetings for both.
