The Alphabet of Creation
I have a book by Ben Shahn, published in 1954, a children's story. It is called the Alphabet of Creation. Shahn was a well-known illustrator and artist. In the story, each letter is a character asking God to be the one chosen for Creation. God loves all the letters and tells each one how it is special, but he chooses Beth for Creation -- for it is Beth "B'reshit" that the Torah begins with.
Next time I come to the computer, I will type up a small passage from the book.
For study I made 22 Hebrew letter cards and I am now arranging them in different ways alongside the Major Arcana -- very interesting.
I have numbered the Hebrew letters from 1 to 22, but I also want to number them that other way, which I cannot locate, like how you make the bigger numbers.
