The Argument for the Divine Origin of Hebrew
Greek, Latin, Sanskrit: languages where the word is a label placed on the thing by convention, and which shift ceaselessly.
Hebrew holds form, sound, value and meaning together in every letter, and its structure has not come apart.
Sefer Yetzirah counts thirty-two paths — ten sefirot and twenty-two letters — no more, no fewer.
The Jerusalem Talmud reports that Hebrew was preserved after Babel.
Ancient Greek: conventions; words as labels; constant evolution; no correspondence between letter, number and concept.
Latin: a rich grammar, a lexicon of convention, major historical transformations.
Sanskrit: a sacred language, but one where the tie of word to concept rests on tradition, without systematic integration.
Hebrew: each letter carries at once a form, a sound, a value and a meaning; and the original structure has held.
Sefer Yetzirah sets out thirty-two paths of creation: ten sefirot and twenty-two letters. No more, no fewer.
Three mother letters for the primary elements, seven doubles for the pairs of opposites, twelve simples for the functions.
Where natural languages shift constantly, the sacred language has kept its structure.
The readings of Dr Alfred Tomatis place the band of Hebrew between one thousand and three thousand hertz, with high harmonics around eight thousand.
