Secrets of Biblical Hebrew ~ Pt 5 ~ Deeper Spiritual Meaning of the Alef Tav

Alef and Tav are the first and the last letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Alef and Tav represents completion and perfection. In Deuteronomy 11:26, 28, we are asked to choose between blessing and curse: See, this day I set before you blessing and curse: blessing, if you obey the commandments of Hashem your God that I enjoin upon you this day… Regarding the blessing, the alef tav is used, but regarding the curse (v.29), it is omitted. So alef tav IS the blessing. In Genesis 1:1, there are seven Hebrew words in this verse. If we put those seven words on a menorah, we have seven branches of the menorah. The central branch is called the servant, and there are three branches to the right of the servant branch and three branches to the left of the servant. What Hebrew word is in the position of the shammash, or the servant? It is the Hebrew word, alef tav. Yeshua is alef tav. Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Revelation 1:7-8 So we see Yeshua as the “servant” in Genesis 1:1 and we see Yeshua as the alef and tav in Revelation at the end of the bible! He IS the beginning and the end! In this teaching segment, we also learn about the gematria of Hebrew letters. Each Hebrew letter has a numerical value. We also look at the name of God, YHVH at the deeper sod level.
