The Alphabetic Gospel of John

There are twenty-two letters in the Hebrew alphabet. Over the millennia scholars have noted that the Hebrew letters also have consistent meanings. For more information please click HERE. As stated on Luke810.Com, “There is more to the Bible than meets the eye.”

Even though only the Old Testament is written in Hebrew, the alphabetic design of the twenty-two letters is found throughout the Bible. An example is the Gospel of John. Here are some examples;
1) Aleph - God as Creator & King – John 1:1-3 (Jesus is God and Creator)
3) Gimel - Loving kindness and culmination – John 3:16-17 (“For God so loved the world”)
4) Dalet - The door, way or path – John 4:24-26 (Jesus is the Way)
5) Hay - The breath of God, grace – John 5:8-9 (The Grace of Jesus)
6) Vav - Completion and redemption – The entire chapter is about Jesus, who completed the covenant and redeems us all.
8) Chet - Transcendence, life and grace – John 8:9-11 (Again, the Grace of Jesus)
10) Yod - Creation and metaphysical – John 10:7-11 (Jesus, the metaphoric Good Shepherd)
11) Kaf - Crowning accomplishment – John 11:42-44 (Jesus raised His friend Lazarus from the dead!)
13) Mem - Water, revealed and concealed – John 13:5 (Jesus washed the Disciples feet)
14) Nun – Faithfulness – John 14:16-18 (Jesus is faithful!)
17) Peh - Mouth and speech (In chapter 17, the Lord Jesus prays for Himself and for all Believers)
18) Tzaddi - Righteousness and humility (The entirety of chapter 18 is about the righteous Lamb of God being mistreated and accused, and His humble responses.)
21) Shin - Divine power and provision – John 21:5 (The divine power and provision of Jesus is shown)

This is just one example of the many Alphabetic, Torah, Menorah and Heptadic designs found in the Word of God. Praise His name for His magnificence!
