Hello.

I was typing in some lyrics from a booklet I have, and at the beginning of one song some Hebrew word is written: https://www.dropbox.com/s/470x1zw7e0i6568/Bild%20%2848%29.jpg?dl=0
but I don't think it's actually sung.
I was told it reads "תרוס". According to Google Translate that means "destroy".
Could someone tell me what it actually means?
Also, as you can see on the scan there are some diacritics. Does someone here know what they mean?

For context, it's this song here: http://lyricstranslate.com/en/shaarimoth-beast-lawlessness-lyrics.html

In the album's lyrics are also a few other Hebrew terms but I might be able to figure out those myself

Oh, I somehow overlooked your reply!
Thanks - I'm just not sure whether I understand your words?
Does "תרוס" means "closed shutters"? Or "closed" as an adjective? Or "shutters"?

Hi! i don't know the meaning. the letters are Hebrew but there is nothing with "shutter".
there is small signs above the letters and when i type it as it is in google,it bring me to the "Babylonian Talmud"

Thanks for any replies.
In case anyone is interested, I have now been informed by another user about the probable meaning of the term and the diacritics and added a footnote to the lyrics.

Well, just joined you about month ago and only today saw it.
1. תרוס could be "closed shutters" (single word derived from shutter and describing their "state" ) but never, never, never did I hear or see written such a word in Hebrew. In my opinion it stands to all rules of Hebrew language except it doesn't exist.
2. It just could exist as a form taken from occult magic or the Talmud era and then I wouldn't know.
3. In Google you probably saw הרוס (h not t) which really means destroyed.
4. You surely know that 666 is the number of the beast. (but only if you believe in beasts :-)
5. You probably know that Hebrew ת is transliterated into English as soft th and Hebrew ט as hard t. Soratharos without the letter h would be sorataros, a palindrom of sorat, the Hebrew word written in Latin letters and read from left to right.
6. BTW: I think the three apostrophes in the Talmud just divide it into groups: 600, 6, 60. Maybe this is occult magic like in KABALA.
Where are you leading a sworn, believing, atheist ? Give me a break, for the remainder find a Rabbi or a priest

Hi! Thanks for your comment!

As I wrote in my previous comment, I already left a note on it on the lyrics page: https://lyricstranslate.com/en/shaarimoth-beast-lawlessness-lyrics.html
But thanks for confirming!
I edited the note clarify to the part about the misspelling.

One needn't be a theist to be an occultist, many aren't.
And I might have asked a priest :D The user who gave me the information I put in the footnote seemed to know enough about occultism to be a practitioner of it, and while I don't know of that user's religion, from the user name they might be a Setian, which would be among the religions where every adherent is considered their own priest.
And in any case, before asking here I did first ask myself ;)

It was nice of you to thank me. Nothing between theism, atheism and occult, You can find any combination of them. I got my peripheral knowledge by being a general vacuum cleaner of books, liking SF, especially Roger Zelezny and books about the Templars (btw: do you think were they theists or atheists or both depending on the period). The rabbi and priest just were to inform you that you can't squeeze more dry than I did myself ;)

Yeah, reading is dangerous ;)

Theists most likely. From what I heard about them they got into the wrong side of a religious or political fight for power and where thereby labeled as heretics, not because of any actual beliefs of them. But I haven't looked into them much.
