Word of the Week

Word: ADAM

Hebrew: אָדָם (ʾadam)

Definition: Since we all came from אָדָם ADAM, we should know a little about him…which is us, you might say. We know the meaning of the first letter, from right to left, the א Aleph, is representing the Father, strength, authority, first. The second letter is the ד Dalet which we know by know is the Door, and the Door is Yeshua. The last letter is the ם Final Mem which represents the Water of the Word. So, we all have the Father in us…remember the Breath of Himself that He forced into Adams nostrils and has continued through mankind ever since?, Then the Father א Aleph, made available to us His Son, ד Dalet and to follow His Word ם Final Mem, for salvation to get back to the Father..א Aleph. Adding up the gematria, we see the א = 1, ד = 4 and the ם = 40. Taking the 0 off the 40, we get another 4. So adding these numbers together we get the number 9. We are to represent the Fruit of the Spirit, represents the completeness of G-d’s plan of salvation for man’s sin. Do you want to go further? There are 3 letters in the word אָדָם ADAM. The 3rd letter of the aleph-bet is the ג Gimel which represents a Camel, which represents Lifting up. Soooo, we must Lift up the Father, א Aleph,, through His Son, ד Dalet, how? By using the Word of G-d, the ם Final Mem. A side note: The sum of the numerical values of all 22 Hebrew letters, using standard gematria, is 1495. Each letter in the Hebrew alphabet has a corresponding numerical value, and these values are added together to get the total. Sooo. 1+4+9+5=19. 1+9=10. The 10th letter of the Aleph-bet is the י Yod which represents the HAND OF G-D. It just doesn’t get any better than this. (10 Commandments also?) Enough said. Rabbi John
