Earlier I indicated that Abram, the interpreters name was consistent with an Arabic word meaning interpreter. Semitic vocabularies are based upon tri-literal roots. The root of this word is t-p-r, d-b-r, d-v-r, etc. In addition to being called the speaker and Prophet, Abram was also described as the 3rd of a triad of Black Seminole leadership (McCall). In the Bible, we have the female leader Deborah, whose name in Hebrew is said to signify a "bee". Never the less, Like Abram, phonetically, her name is consistent with the Semitic root for speaker/words (dabarim). So might we be surprised to find that she is also described as a "Prophetess"? I am not aware of any other female figure of the Bible described as such. The traditional Hebrew leadership "triad" was the "King, Priest, and Prophet". With the l-dialect, we have the tephillah, or "song prayer". Followed by, you guessed it, the "Song of Deborah". The bottom line is that names were not chosen in isolation, not among the Semites nor the Seminoles. Among the Seminoles especially, what was perceived by outsiders as a "name" was often a title or position.

To come full circle , Solomons' Temple also consisted of three sections. Ulam, Hekhal, and Debir. It is an amazing coincidence that the Muskogee word for 2, tokoli, or tokolin, is sometimes expressed as Hokoli. In such cases, the nbrs 1 and 2 , Lamin, Hokolin, would bear a consistency with Ulam and Hekhal. But what of the sanctuary, the Debir? The sanctuary was the place of the Shekina- the "spirit"- the "glory cloud". Looking to the Semitic nbrs, we find a possible answer. The Hebrew for the third position is Shalosh, while the Arabic (and most other Semites) is thalatha, or talatha. Clearly, we here have a simple "tsade" dichotomy. The Arabs using a t/th where the Hebrews are using an sh. This is confirmed with the numeral 8. Arabic is tamania ( t-mn), whereas the Hebrew is Shemone (sh-mn). Working in reverse, shekina becomes tekina. Now we arrive at Semitic ulam , hekhal, tekhina vs Muskogee lamin, hokolin, tutchenin. Further, shekina is sometimes written shechinah, while Muskogee third is often recorded as techina. What are the odds? The Temple construction undoubtedly had a Phoenician influence. The Temple was the place of the Countdown to the day of Atonement.
There is an entire cultural complex of related words among both peoples which seriously decrease the odds that this synchronicity is blind chance.
