These three letters represent a clarification, the Son of Man, the Son of man pursuing man.
- ונג
Vav ו
Previously the vav was defined as the word which was spoken into the first void of creation. It separates, joins and clarifies.
Nun נ not Kaf כ
Short lines extend along the upper and lower bars. The nun looks like the kaf except the horizontal lines are shorter. The kaf represents the Son of God, and the nun represents the son of man.
Gimel ג
The gimel is a vav where a short line extends from the middle of the vertical line diagonally to the left. It's meaning is to pursue. The word of God pursues man. Jewish children remember that the gimel looks like an outstretched leg as if in pursuit.
