Notarikon
Notarikon
'Notarikon' [1] is the ancient Hebrew practice of interpretation where words get their meaning from the combined meaning of the letters within.
- No other known language works this way. None of the letters in 'cat' tell you anything about cats.
'Elohim' אלהים means God 'El' אל separated from creation י, which has been finished by the son ם (or 'his people'), by ignorance ה. [2]

John demonstrates a knowledge of this in 1Jo 5:7 Where heaven שמים has three consonants (yes and one vowel) which mean father מ, Word ם and Spirit א. And earth ארץ having Spirit א, water ר, and blood ץ. Naturally he translated into Greek for the emerging Greek church which did not have a background in Hebrew.
Works and lectures by Rabbi Benjamin Blech https://www.rabbibenjaminblech.com/- ↑ This is not an endorsement of the rabbinic usage of notarikon since they violate the rules of it's use and have scrambled the meaning of the letters making nonsense of the idea.
- ↑ It also means 'after he created the heavens and the earth א he taught ל those who did not understand ה and then his creation י was finished when the Son completed it ם'.
