COMMENTS
|
*1 When you heat milk the cream islands settle on top
*2 Marsh = An Island with reeds
*3 When you shine light on say a wall you see the
alternating shadows (Silouettes) and lights.
Thus LIGHT (Aleph-Resh) shows the ISLANDS IN SPACE
*4 A rare word--from context it seems to mean a water
source (eg Is30-14 ...to scrape water from
a G-V-A) It could also be translated as PIT.
Since however GV means HIGH (as in BACKBONE,
EYELASHES, ALTAR FRAME) I would suggest G-V-A
means a HIGH ISLAND (i.e. a SPRING)
*5 C-L-A can also mean prison (C-L refers to Sustenance)
Thus the PRISON or PEN refers to a self contained
island where animals or prisoners exist

LONGER FOOTNOTES
|
* 10 In the 2 letter
theory the meaning of the 3 letter root (eg ChMah=cream)
is explained as emanating from the 1 letter root (ALEPH=
ISLAND) and the meaning of the 2 letter root (CHAM means
HOT). Thus CREAM refers to the ISLANDS that come from
HEATED MILK. Note that Rav Hirsch DID believe in a 3
letter grammatical theory. However Rav Hirsch SUPPLEMENTED
the 3 letter grammatical theory with an additional
2 letter theory that explains meaning.
