How the aleph tells us about God

How the aleph tells us about God

Hebrew letters have many attributes, and each is a riddle which speaks of God.

These are some the attributes:

• Order or position in the alphabet: the aleph is first.
• A number value: the aleph is 1
• A meaning using notarikon (splitting it into smaller parts): the aleph א is yod י vav ו yod י
• The meaning of it's name: Spelled out aleph is אךף, or אלוף meaning duke, guide, friends, governors, captains, governor, ox, tame, docile, friend, intimate, chief
• The number of it's name: if spelled אלף it is 831 or 3. If spelled אלוף then it is 837 or 9.
• The formation of the name: א(ל)ף, א-ל-ף, אל-ף , א-לף
• The gate: פלא

In order for God to hide a riddle in the historical events, there must be meaning hidden inside the symbols (numbers, letters and words) which relate those ideas.

Often the accusation of eisegesis, putting meaning into a text, is leveled at the New Testament author method of interpreting scripture. but the meaning is already there and made available to create the riddles. We need only observe them.
