| The aleph א is a diagonal vav with two yods. The yod represents the creation, but there are two of them. We discern that when there are two things, they are two aspects of one thing.
| | {{1c| {{:Nun נ The Son of Man}} }} |
| | | {{1c| {{:Rosh ר revealed}} }} |
| As you draw the aleph, first draw the vav saying "God spoke and created...". When drawing the two yods say, "the heavens and the earth."
| |
| | |
| Recall that when we learn language, the same thing is said in many ways to help us understand the idea. The aleph represents creation by separation. As you draw it, you can say several things which represent the idea of the aleph.
| |
| | |
| :God spoke... and created the heavens and the earth. <ref group="s">Ge 1:1 ¶ In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.</ref> <ref>God spoke to create 10 times in Genesis 1</ref> | |
| | |
| :The spirit hovered... on the face of the waters. <ref group="s">Ge 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.</ref> <ref group="v"> mrachaphth מרחפת - hovered, moved, ''m.'' judged, ''f.'' from the revelation (or bitter) מר the understanding ח of the prophecy פ was complete ת</ref> | |
| | |
| :The firmament... divided the waters above and below. <ref group="s">Ge 1:6 ¶ And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.</ref> | |

| The number value of the aleph is 1, but it's name means 1000.
| |
| | |
| The aleph contains the unspeakable name of God יוי ''ee-oo--ee'' which sounds like Yahweh. It is unspeakable because the aleph is silent letter.

| =Gimel ג He pursued them=
| |
| The ''gimel'' is a ''vav'' with a ''yod'' hanging off the bottom like a leg extended. The ''vav'' comes down the side of the Square Letter Template, representing love coming to man
| |
| <ref group="s">1Jo 4:19 We love him, because he first loved us.</ref>,
| |
| and the yod extending to the left is a little bit of Holiness being revealed. The purpose of the law is not to squish you, but to help explain who God is. He gave us his love, then pursued us with his holiness.
| |
|
| |
| The word ''gimel'' means 'camel'. If you look it up in a dictionary, they look like two words in English, but the are the same Hebrew word גמל. It also means 'recompense' like a judge giving you what you deserve. And it means 'poor one'
| |
| <ref group="v">gimel ג or גמל - camel, recompense, poor one ''m.'' pursue, judge</ref>
| |
|
| |
| As you draw the ''gimel'' say, "The man rich in love (draw the ''vav''), pursued the poor man (draw the ''yod'') with holiness.
| |
| <ref group="q">In what way did the rich man who chased after the poor man make himself equal to God?</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">After Jesus said no one but God was good, he claimed to be good too.</ref>
| |
| <ref group="q">Who was the real rich man?</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">Jesus was God.</ref>
| |
| <ref group="q">In what way had God given up all he had to become the poor man?</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">Through the incarnation he became poor; giving up his high estate.</ref>
| |
| <ref group="q">If you have shaky hands and poor eyesight, how do you thread a needle?</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">You hold the thread on your cheek to keep it steady, then bring the needle to it. </ref>
| |
| <ref group="q">How did the rich man read the law in order to make himself equal to God?</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">He interpreted the law around his own behyavior and character to make himself 'good'.</ref>
| |
| <ref group="q">When Jesus asked him to give up all he had, did he ask him to do anything that he himself had not already done?</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">He said, "If you are equal to God, then do what God has done and come follow me."</ref>

| =Dalet ד with a command=
| |
| The ''dalet'' ד is formed by drawing two ''vav''s at right angles. This is different from the ''rosh'' ר which has two ''vav''s joined with a curve. The upper horizontal ''vav'' collects up what can be known about God as it travels from left to right. The vertical ''vav'' represents that knowledge coming to man.
| |
| <ref group="q">Name some things that fall into the commandment idea.</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">Creation is the result of the commandemnt. "Do not eat". "Go". The ten commandments.</ref>
| |
|
| |
| The right angle of the ''dalet'' ד means that the information is not complete, like a pipe that is pinched rather than smoothly transitioned. We say that it is a command. As a metaphor, it represents the command itself, the result of the command, or the response to the command. God commanded the creation into existence. The universe is the result of the command, and testifies to to the invisible nature of God. <ref group="s">Ro 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, [even] his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:</ref>
| |
|
| |
| But the command does not reveal all about God. The revelation of God is the ''rosh'' ר. We will come back to this. Though in English three words are nearly synonyms, we use them in a technical way: command, revelation, teaching. The ''dalet'' ד is the command. The revelation or ''rosh'' ר contains personality. And teaching or ''lamed'' ל is a shared heart.
| |
|
| |
| ''Dalet'' means 'poor one' and 'door'.
| |
| <ref group="v">dalet ד or דלת - poor one, door, ''m.'' commandment</ref>
| |
| As you draw it say, "a commandment" or "was commanded".
| |
|
| |
| =Nun נ The Son of Man=
| |
| The ''nun'' נ is a ''vav'' with a ''yod'' off the bottom like the ''gimel'' ג except the ''yod'' is horizontal. The word ''nun'' means 'fish' and it represents the Son of Man. <ref group="v">nun נ or ננ - fish ''m.'' Son of Man</ref> In Greek the fish represents "Jesus Messiah God's Son Savior" as an anagram.
| |
|
| |
| The ''nun'' נ stands in contrast to the ''kof'' כ, which represents the Son of God. The difference is the length of the horizontals. The ''kof'' says that the Son of God was fully God and fully man by nature. The ''nun'' says that the Son of Man was partially God and partially man by choice. He chose to limit himself by the flesh
| |
| <ref group="s">Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:</ref>
| |
| in order to be qualified to be our high priest
| |
| <ref group="s">Heb 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin.</ref>
| |
| <ref group="q">Do you become blind when you close your eyes?</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">Of course not.</ref>
| |
| <ref group="q">Did Jesus cease to be God when he chose not to be omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient?</ref>
| |
| <ref group="a">Of course not</ref>
| |
|
| |
| When you draw the ''nun'' say, "The Son of Man".
| |
|
| |
| =Rosh ר revealed=
| |
| The ''rosh'' is like the ''dalet'' ד but it has the rounded corner; it takes on and includes personality. The word ''rosh'' means destitute. <ref group="v">rosh ר - destitute, ''m.'' reveal</ref> It is why people fall on their faces when God reveals himself. They are destitute before him. When God walked with Adam, or met Moses on the mountaintop, these were ''rosh'' experiences.
| |
|
| |
| With a ''dalet'' ד experience, you cannot ask questions; it is a command. With a ''rosh'' ר experience you can dialog and know. Say "reveals, revealed, or revealing" when drawing the 'rosh'' ר.
