Theology:Spaces Hypothesis

This is a theological conjecture put forward by Victor Porton 9 Oct 2014:

We probably have no right to ignore spaces in Hebrew Bible, as apparently Moses and co wrote Hebrew Bible with explicit spaces. So spaces in Hebrew Bible are a part of the word of God. (Remark: In contrast to this New Testament was written without spaces.)

But there are many places in Bible which just enumerate proper names. It seems not feasible that God has written in His word fragments with so little meanings for modern readers of Bible. This tempts to read such fragments of Bible without space to add more meaning.

So a conjecture: While we cannot remove existing spaces, we can add new spaces in the middle of words (especially proper names). This probably will allow to see more meanings in "proper name enumeration" fragments of Bible.

An additional question: Can we consider prefixes like ל or ה as separate words?

We will denote variants of translation governed by this hypothesis by Spaces Hypothesis title. With "additional question" (that it considering like ל or ה as separate words) we will denote it by the title Spaces Hypothesis with prefixes.
