Default An Ancient Samaritan Acronym from Genesis 1:1 Against Jesus

My friend Samaritan friend Benny reminds me of the ancient Samaritan acronym. As he explains it - "it is a special Samaritan acronym of the characters of the words 'In the Beginning' showing the hatred in old time of the Samaritans towards Christianity that made them suffered so much and the general rejection to any "prophet" after Moses. ב ר א ש י ת = ב יום ר אותך א יש ש מו י שו ת להו = In a day you will see a man his name is Jesus, hang him."

Since I am wholly ignorant of Hebrew and all other semitic languages, please regard this rejoinder as most probably incorrect.

No. It is an aphorism, not an acronym.

acronym: FAT: Free Atheist Thought

aphorism: Fat folk foolishly feel fairly flustered.
