(The meaning for each letter can found within the Map) The Aleph is the same shape as the english upside down A. This first letter is a picture of the strong ox, which represents Father the Lord with horns of wrath that bring about life (See Altar). The name of the first letter Aleph means oxen or one thousand. Though 1000 is not the last number, it is a large number that ends a series of three and ten (Base 10: 10, 100, 1000, see 3 and 10) and is seen as a last number (much like people today see one million or a billion as a last number, though they know it is not). This gives Aleph the meaning of the first and the last that never ends, an attribute of the Lord the letter represents. The Aleph is written with 3 lines to represent the Lord the Father, the Lord Yeshua, and the Lord the Spirit as the One and only God (See trinity). The light that was made on the first day (Gen 1:3, 4, 5) represents the Lord the Father/Creator. Nothing lives without the light that shines to give life on earth.
