4We can call upon the name of YHWH as He
has commanded.
5When we use the original name of our Savior we
can learn of Him from a proper perspective.
6We can easily recognize the value of the Hebrew
name of YHWH Yshua.
Well, how much more valuable
are the remaining words of the Scriptures!
7Much meaning is lost in translation!

8Death and life are in the power of the HEBREW
tongue, And those who love it will eat its
fruit, Proverbs 1821 / Mishlei 1821
9The aleph is symbolic of the books of Genesis and
Matthew.In the beginning was the alpeh. John
11
10Key Hebrew wordECHAD
to unite, to join together, to be
oneDeuteronomy 64John 1721
11Yshua gave His life to restore creation to
Himself to be echad.
YHWH desires his people to be echad.
12The aleph shows us the power of echad.
The aleph has no sound. It is
silent.
The aleph becomes one with its surrounding
letters or vowel points.
13Principles from the Alpeh
Our mind must be renewed and our souls changed
through the Living Aleph Yshua!
14The design of the aleph gives us the plan of
salvation
15Father YHWH loves us
Sinful man is separated from YHWH
Yshua was the mediator
16Father YHWH loves us
Sinful man is separated from YHWH
Yshua was the mediator
17Some Aleph words inlcude
Echad Ahava Elohim Amein Asher Abba Ima
Av Adam Ayn Sof El Eloah Adon Adonai
Aliyah Abram Elul Aharon Ester Etrog Adar
18In the aleph betAleph is the first letter.Bet
is the second letter.
19The aleph speaks to us about the oneness of YHWH.
It gives us a picture of Yshua as the Savior
and YHWH as the Creator. It is the number one
and becomes one with its surrounding letters or
vowel points.
20The bet has the B sound when a dot is in the
middle of the letter. When there is no dot, it
is called a vet and has a V sound.
21The alef is the number 1. YHWH is one. But,
YHWH did not want to be alone. He wanted to
produce Himself. YHWH the alef created the Bet.
22 As a prefix, the letter bet may function as a
preposition meaning "in", "at", or "with".
For example, the Hebrew word
ba-midbar means in the wilderness
23We are told that YHWH created the world in order
to produce a welling in the world below.
24Beresheeth bara Elohim Aleph-Tafha shamayim v-et
ha-aretz.In the beginning Elohim created the
heavens and the earth.
25The Hebrew word for created is bara.In
Hebrew this is bet - resh - aleph
26These words confirm the passage from John /
Yochannan 11
Bet resh spells bar which is Hebrew for son
In the beginning was the son / bar of Aleph!
27The bet is a picture of a house. Every creature
blesses YHWH with the bet saying, Blessed is
YHWH forever and ever, Psalm 8953.
28We create a dwelling place for YHWH through our
praise. Let them construct me a sanctuary, that
I may dwell among them, Exodus 258
29The word bayit means house. We are His house
- His dwelling place. We are now the bayit, the
bet of YHWH.
30YHWH cant praise Himself!This is why YHWH
created the Bet and why YHWH created the
universe! Through bracha / blessings we can
build a bayit / house to YHWH and His ben / son.
31Principles from the Bet
There are 2 key points to learn from the Bet1)
YHWH wants to bless us2) We return His
blessings with blessings
32Principles from the Bet
There are things that block YHWHs blessings.
We must remove the hindrances of uncleanliness,
the world, curses, negativity, unbelief, and
demons.
33Principles from the Bet
We create a bayit / house for YHWH when we bless
Him and bless others! We are to be a pipeline of
blessings from YHWH to other people!
34Principles from the Bet
Blessing YHWH and blessing others is how we show
the ahava of our Father. Together the first two
letters spell a special Hebrew word Av
Father.
35The two letters together show us that Father YHWH
is revealed through His alpeh bet living
letters of Hebrew.
36May we commit today to be like the aleph and the
bet.
To be one with YHWH and each other.
To be a vessel of blessings from YHWH to other
people
37Does anyone know the recipe to rabbit stew said
a man.
A voice raised above the crowd and saidFirst,
catch the rabbit!
38Pascal said, The last thing one knows is what to
do first.
What do you consider to be of most importance in
this life?
39Priorities are important!
In Matthew 2820, Yshua instructed us to go into
all the world teaching them to obey everything
that I've commanded
40There are only three things that really matter.
1YHWH 2TORAH 3PEOPLE
41Our live should center upon these three eternal
entities.
1YHWH 2TORAH 3PEOPLE
42These 3 priorities point us to the third letter
in the alephbet.
43The gimel has the G sound and is a literal
picture of the long neck of a camel. Gamul is
Hebrew for camel.
44Gamul is Hebrew for camel.
45In ancient Paleo Hebrew the Gimel was drawn like
a foot. It has progressed to the current modern
style.
46The Gimel has the meaning to walk, carry, or
gather says the Ancient Hebrew Lexicon of the
Bible. It is also the number 3.
473 is the number of unity, perfection, power, and
purpose.
We are told the world stands upon 3 pillars.
48Rabbi Shimon the Just saidUpon 3 things the
world stands the Torah, the worship of YHWH, and
showing kindness.
49Kindness
Worship
Torah
50The three legs, the three gimels of the universe
explain how we can live a meaningful life.
The three legs, the three gimels of the universe
explain how we can live a meaningful life.
51Upon 3 things the world stands the Torah, the
worship of YHWH, and showing kindness.
This statement agrees with Psalm 11917-24.

53Deal bountifully with Thy servant that I may
live, and I will observe Thy word. Open Thou mine
eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of
Thy law. I am a sojourner in the earth hide not
Thy commandments from me. My soul breaketh for
the longing that it hath unto Thine ordinances at
all times. Thou hast rebuked the proud that are
cursed, that do err from Thy commandments. Take
away from me reproach and contempt for I have
kept Thy testimonies. Even though princes sit and
talk against me, thy servant doth meditate in Thy
statutes. Yea, Thy testimonies are my delight,
they are my counsellors, Psalm 119L17-24
54The First Pillar is the Torah How is your
relationship with the Torah?Psalm 119 18 24
speak directly of the Torah.
55The first gimel is the Torah of YHWH. This is
the basis for everything else in our lives!
56The First Pillar is the Torah
The Torah is YHWHs blueprint for living. It
provides depth, clarity, and purpose to our lives.
57The First Pillar is the Torah
Loving the Torah is loving YHWH with all your
mind!
58Torah study is symbolized by Jacob who dwelt in a
tent and learned of Torah.
59It is through our knowledge of and obediance to
the Torah that we can relate to YHWh and other
people.
60Study to shew thyself approved unto YHWH, a
workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth, 2 Timothy 315
61This verse was written for ALL believers!EVERYO
NE should study Torah daily.
62 Your level of Torah study may be different but
remember that even as a child, Yshua was
teaching in the Temple. What about us?What is
holding you back?

64Can we agree with King DavidThy testamonies
also are my deligh and my counsellors.
We must create the habit of Torah study each day.
65Out of everything of importance in the entire
world, the Torah is in the TOP 3!
66YHWH, open my eyes that I may behold wonderful
things from your Torah, Psalm 11918
67Our eyes are opened to YHWHs Torah only through
Yshua. No one comes to the Father unless the
Spirit draws them.
68Yshua is the Living Torah. A study of Torah is
a study of Yshua! As we open ourselves to Him,
we can see Him more clearly.
69Luke 2412-31
70The second gimel is the worship of YHWH called
avodah. This is service unto Him but for us!
71Avodah is symbolized by Isaac who offered Himself
to YHWH in total sacrifice.
72The Second Pillar is Avodah
Avodah is loving YHWH with all your heart!
73The Second Pillar is Avodah
Avodah is found in Psalm 11919, 22 23
74The Second Pillar is Avodah
Avodah shows us another Gimel Pattern as Avodah
is a three-fold cord.
75The Second Pillar is Avodah
Read Ecclesiaties 412
76When we incorporate these 3 practices then our
relationship with YHWH is empowered.
77Avodah include PrayerV. 23meditate in thy
statutes
78Avodah includes MitzvotV. 19hide not thy
mitzvot from me
79Avodah includes Temple ServiceV. 22I have
kept Thy testimonies
80The third gimel is acts of kindness called
gemilut chasadim.
81Gemilut chasadim are symbolized by Abraham who
showed hospitality and kindness to all.
82The Third Pillar is Kindness
Gemilut Chasadim is loving YHWH with all of your
strength.
83The Third Pillar is Kindness
This is actions for others. The highest form of
good deeds is to love your neighbor.
84The Third Pillar is Kindness
This is so important that YHWH does chasdim
hoping that we will replicate His actions
Psalm 11917.
85The Third Pillar is Kindness
The Gimel is made of a vav and a yod. This
is a man running to extend a hand to the
needy.
86Yshua gave us a great example of the Gimel in
John 111-47
87Worshipped and sat at Yshuas feet
Helped and met the physical needs
The Living Torah acted and raised Lazarus
88If we want Yshua to raise our dead brothers from
sin and religion then we need to get busy with
worship / avodah and kindness / gemilut chasadim.
89Its amazing what we can learn from a little
Hebrew letter. BUT
Lets not just learn about the gimel. We need to
apply the gimel to our lives!
90Rember that the Gimel is a picture of a foot
We need to run to action!
91Does your world stand on the gimels of avodah,
Torah, and chesed?
Are you steadfast like a camel?
92Are you spending your time focused on the three
gimels that matter? YHWH People Torah
