Dalet ד with a command []

Discussion

The right angle of the 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. [s 1] But the command does not reveal all about God. The revelation of God is the 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 ד is the command. The revelation or ר contains personality. And teaching or ל is a shared heart. means 'poor one' and 'door'. [v 1] As you draw it say, "a commandment" or "was commanded". }}
Draw the dalet []


The dalet ד is formed by drawing two vavs at right angles. This is different from the rosh ר which has two vavs 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. [q 1] [a 1]

As you draw it say, "a commandment" or "was commanded".
