Letters & SymbolsThe Letter That Is a Mark
The last letter of the Hebrew alphabet was once drawn as a cross — and it is also a Hebrew word meaning sign.
The Seventh Thing

Hebrew does not make a covenant. It cuts one — and in Genesis 15 only one party walks between the pieces.
The Appointed Times Are a Rehearsal

Why the Name Has No Vowels
Four consonants and no vowels at all — on the pointing that arrived late, and why the older frame may be the more faithful thing.
