God wants everyone to know him, so all things created teach us something about him. [1] We don't learn from hands, feet, air and earth by looking at them, but by what God says about them; by the symbols.
These are symbols used in the play:
The flying things were created to fly or live in the air. They represent characteristics of the spirit. Our spirit is supposed to love God. The ground represents the flesh.
- air ruach רוח - spirit, air, breath
- earth, ground adamah אדמה - 'man adam אדם who doesn't understand ה'
- hand yod יד - 'creation י finished by the son ם'
- foot regel רדל - 'kill רד the teaching ל' or 'reveal ר the pursuit ג of teaching ל'
