Similarities between Homer & Hebrew

In Doric & Aoelic, pronounced "mânin", compare with πᾶν "pân"

That's a nice switch you pulled there. Those two words are completely unrelated in meaning and etymology but because you're a crank who doesn't give a shit about reality, you just connect them and go on from there.

for example in Genesis 1:2, פני translates ἐπάνω "epánō", so all the positioning words are relating too פני

These words have nothing to do with each other. פני originally means 'face' but is also used to mean 'above' or 'before'. ἐπάνω means 'above' and comes from ἐπί ('on', 'upon', 'at', etc.) and ἄνω ('above', 'up'). No etymological connection, it's just a coincidence that they sound similar because of the way Greek does contractions. You'd know that if you had actually learned the language instead of just choosing random words from a dictionary. You'd also know that if you had taken an entry course on historical linguistics (there you would have also learned a thing or two about the need to establish regular sound correspondences to prove that two languages are related). But of course you haven't done either of these things because you're an idiot who thinks he's discovered some great truth. That's what the combination of ignorance and arrogance does to a person, it's really ugly.

Oh and before you accuse me of being a theologian or an American: I'm a German atheist. And of course I already know that you will adress none of my points and just dump a load of new insane etymologies that are completely wrong because you're incapable of having a rational debate. So don't bother. I won't answer.
