A possible solution to the Beinecke MS408 using transliterated phonetic Hebrew
#1
There is an unpublished article from Stephen Wells-Bennett about the VMS: "You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view."

The author says he was inspired by the book "Forgotten Scripts" by Cyrus H. Gordon: "In this book the author describes practical approaches and methods to code breaking that have worked successfully in the past.Simply put these are finding the right point of entry into a text, making an educated guess and thirdly luck! The author also advises would be code breakers not be too concerned about the minutiae of deciphering texts as most proposed solutions will get improved and refined because more people will study them once they are published" (You are not allowed to view links.

Thanks for that. Based on the paper, I'm not convinced the author knows Hebrew.
