The third character from the left looks like a person and a sword.

Is this Chinese? I know Japanese looks different so I assume it's Chinese since you are.

I know Korean has a phonetic alphabet. Japanese use to have one based on Ancient Hebrew before it adapted the Chinese character system.

Interesting book.

Traditional Chinese writing is the most complicated.
Korean has these rounded squares. Japanese has all these circles.

The reason why its confusing; the reason why people confuse the three is that they're from the same source: ancient Chinese. But it was before it was Chinese as we know it today because there was no unified China thousands of years ago.

Am I correct in the symbols?

I took Chinese Civilization class in college. My BA is in History.

I wrote a paper on this book for the class. I found the one about Japan from Amazon when I bought the one about China. I have both books at home.

G_d = 神


不信神的 means: one who does not believe in the word of G-d.

不 = negates, or not, or no

信 is letter

The last one is like "the" or "one who"

I don't know about the sword thing.
See? You are way ahead of me.
