The Hebrew word for letter, ot, also means “wonder” or “miracle.” This interactive presentation provides an introduction to the Jewish mystical tradition of the Hebrew letters as elements of creation. You will learn about the profound powers embodied in each of the Hebrew letters and how these wondrous letters can offer perspective and layers of possibility to consider regarding the questions we bring before them.
