Template:Double letters
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 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 Tav
One important Double letters in Hebrew is the Double Tav which represents double faith or faith in Spirit and Truth, or spirit and flesh.
In Deuteronomy 7:3 we see Marriages[1] is not ChetTavNun חָתַן chathan but is TavTavChetTavNun תִתְחַתֵּ֖ן ṯiṯ-ḥat-tên which is about making contracts, covenants and constitutions with them in spirit and truth because of the double Tav.
In Deuteronomy 7:5 we see a word for destroy which is not from shamad ShinMemDalet[2] nor Abad AlefBeitDelat[3] nor charam ChetReishMem.[4] which are the most common Hebrew words translated destroy. There are many words translated destroy such as machah[5], shachath[6], caphah[7], mashchiyth [8], karath [9], shabar[10], quwr [11], huwm[12], chabal[13], but there is also a different chabal[14]. .
But the word here is the word nathats NunTavTzadik[15] but in the text we see tittōṣū with the letters TavTavTzadikVav תִּתֹּ֔צוּ tit-tō-ṣū, again containing the Double Tav which means to not just destroy the form but overcome their alters in "spirit and truth". With the inclusion of the Tzadik and a Vav at the end this destruction is brought about by righteousness in Spirit and Truth.
This is the same approach and principle we see in Mark 7: 10- 13 Where the Corban or Sacrifice of the Pharisees was making the word of God to none effect because it had become Legal charity. In order to be a true gift from God by the right of the individual to choose through righteousness to make a freewill offering it must be the result of fervent charity. Christ did not destroy the altars of the Pharisees (רצון לתת Ratzon La’Tet) by force but supplanted them with his living altars of charity.
It is the connection or synchronization of two realms of the Spirit and the physical reality through being a doer of the word that manifests the power of the kingdom. It is the Kingdom of God at hand where we seek to do the righteous will of the Father creator.
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.
- "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"[16] like Christ speaking to the Father on the cross.[17]
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.
Double Yod
The double Yod means that God's spirit was with them and rewarded them by blessing the Jewish midwives of Egypt.They knew what was right from within by the spirit of revelation.
This, of course, was a part of the armor of God.
Faith in action is not just faith in the mind but is fulfilment of a process of salvation.
Being a doer of the word is not just a suggestion.
There are many other examples... we will look at in our studies of the Bible.
Parting waters
The Hebrew letter mem means water or flow of something. Water is the foundational component in the physical creation of life.
Double Mem
The double MemMem מם has significance greater than the single MEM. The Mem has a numerical value of 40 and as a word a value of 80 which is a double MEM. There are different levels that the meaning of Mem may be manifested. God parted the waters to create, which resulted in the upper and lower waters.
Amam AlefMemMem comes from a root often found in Semitic languages. In the Hebrew root the word has a double Mem, one open and one closed. The double Mem often seems to include the idea of visible and also hidden or concealed. It is part of the secrets or mysteries of life's dynamics because it refers to the flow of life in the visible physical world and the less visible quantum or spiritual world.
The Peculiar people of God are those who are intimate with God's revealed but other wise hidden knowledge. That knowledge comes by way of the Tree of life which is spiritual rather than the mere Tree of Knowledge. This is the lack of that knowledge that brings destruction.
- Hosea 4:6 "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children."
The word "lack" is balah[18] which is about "a wearing out" or a "gradually withdrawal" like the creeping in we see in 2 Timothy 3:6 which is the result of a process of cause and effect, a gradual flow from one jurisdiction to another.
2 Timothy 3:6 "For of this sort are they which creep[19] into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,"
