== Double letters ==

The use of [[Double letters]] often includes more the sum of their meaning. Two Yods in a row designate the name of God Adonai and in certain texts are written with the vowels of Adonai which have their own meaning, meaning something distinct from Elohim. 

As the children of God we can only have the character of God if we will let His ''tree'' into our hearts and mind. The double Yod we see in the [[tree of life]] suggests we have done that in faithfully eating of that spirit of that tree.

The [[YHWH|Tetragrammaton]] which begins with the Yod with two Hey separated by Vav is a symbol of the distinction that exist in the reality of what is true. 
 
A Yod is the smallest letter, but kabbalistic types have given it a mystical significance as a divine point through which the 'spark of life' enters the more human realm of our [[flesh and blood]] existence. 

Man is created both for this world and the world of Spirit.

God is spirit but through the word was made manifest. Jesus was flesh and blood in this world but had that divine connection to the Creator/Father which is Spirit. 

Some see the team of flesh and spirit as opposites but they are not. 

Flesh and spirit are said to be mortal-immortal, earthly-heavenly.
They are both contained within man if he is willing to see their truth there is no conflict.   

Some will even say Flesh and spirit are good-evil but evil is the absence of good that occurs or that evil is  created in man when he denies truth, which is ''hating the light''. No one is [[born again]] who hates the light or prefers the darkness.

This rejection of the truth, the preference for delusion or a lie is a kind of vain comfort and not of God.

This is when the flesh is out of sink with the spirit and evil and darkness prevail.

This is what occurred when we denied God's word and in vanity ate of the tree of knowledge of our own minds denying the spiritual revelation of the ''tree of life''.

=== Double gimel ===

The letter Gimel is the third letter in the Hebrew alphabet and is the source of the Greek letter Gamma. The Gimel is about the ''Cause and Effect'' or "justified repayment" of creation. The word Gimel means to be "kind or benevolent" because that brings blessings. If we are "cruel and [[covetous]]" there will be consequences. The good consequences are called blessings the bad we call the [[Wrath of God]].

Hebrew is spelled GimelYodMemLamed. It is said to be written as a man running after a poor man to give him charity. A double Gimel by itself has been translated "roof", גג, which is a covering.

The "double gimel" is said to also  be one of three paths to wisdom.  


{{Double Tav}}

== Harmony of realms ==

There are many other occurrence of double letters.

Examples of these double letters can be seen in the Song of Solomon or [[Song of Songs]] which occurs in chapter 5 within the woman's innermost desires. This book or song seems to be strange and out of place in the biblical library but is full of the symbols of salvation that must come ''in spirit and in truth''.

[[Song of Songs|Song of Solomon 5]]:2 
: "I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night."


She answer to the knocking of her lover and no other. Though her love seems to have "withdrawn himself, and was gone"<Ref>[[Song of Songs|Song of Solomon 5]]:6 "I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.</Ref> like Christ speaking to the Father on the cross.<Ref>[[Matthew 27]]:46  And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou [[forsaken me]]?
: [[Mark 15]]:34  And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou [[forsaken me]]?</Ref>
 
During this absence in the text she is left alone and wonders lost in the world and is abused by the "watchmen of the city" but she remains faithful like the true bride of Christ.

In the text we find a double Dalet, three double Yod(s), a double Tav, a double Shin, a double Vav, a double Samech, and two double Lamed(s). 

Doubling often signifies truth of the thing in two realms like the double Tav representing a synchronization of the will of the Father and His children, mankind. It is the union of the Father and Son of faith, in spirit and truth.

: [[Exodus 1]]:17 "But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of [[Egypt]] commanded them, but saved the men children alive."


God was good to the midwives who disobeyed the order of the Pharaoh to kill the newly born baby boys, at the risk of their own lives. 

In the Bible the phrase for “made the good” contains a double Yod, even though there is no need for it. 

Why is it there? 

Because the two realms must come into harmony.
