As a follow up to my last post about the complexities of the bible I wanted to share this diagram showing how the various hebrew letters are formed by recursive combination of each other.

It's a neat diagram showing how the hebrew letters are formed as by recursive combination of the three mother letters (Tau is a double letter so should be yellow like the other double letters).

the three letters on the tips of the triangle are the mother letters which combine to make the double letters (yellow) and are further combined to make the simple letters. The diagram shows how each letter combines the strokes of the others to make each other.

@freemo Sounds like you may have already looked into the Sefer Yetzirah? The translation by Kaplan was a really interesting perspective on creative work with the alphabet.

@HappyWizard Yes I have read the Sepher Yetzirah and many religious texts from countless religions. Studying, or at least reading up on the technical details, of various religions is an interest of mine.

I mostly focus on the more obscure and older religious texts. The abrahamic religions arent my main focus. but I do feel i needed a foundation in the three major religions if i wanted to seriously study the more obscure religions and have a useful context with which to draw on.

@HappyWizard My biggest area of focus in all that is mostly the occult philosophies. I have a large collection of midevil books on Occult topics.
